Latinas workers drive our economy—but the community isn’t a monolith. This #LatinaEqualPay Day, @IWPResearch looks at the wage gap by national origin and race/ethnicity. #Trabajadoras
Latinas’ gender and racial wage gap has worsened—and without proactive reform, they will not reach pay equity until the year 2180. Read @IWPResearch’s latest #LatinaEqualPay #Trabajadoras
$33,370 less a year—money that could go to child care. Housing. Education. That’s what the widening gender wage gap means for Latina workers. Read @IWPResearch’s latest #LatinaEqualPay #Trabajadoras
Latina women who work full time, year round, and part time earn only 53 cents for every $1 earned by a white male. Take a stand against pay discrimination & occupational segregation! We need #LatinaEqualPay for #Trabajadoras everywhere.
NHPI women earn just 67¢ for every $1 paid to white, non-Hispanic men–and some face even wider gaps. Pay equity can’t wait. #NHPIWomensEqualPayDay

Just In: Roger Niello will be the new Republican minority leader of the California State Senate.
Niello, who represents parts of Sac County, will takeover for Brian Jones starting in November, per multiple sources.
I’m told the vote happened this afternoon during caucus.
