It is March 26, 2026: Equal Pay Day. We use this day to sound the alarm with our partners about the punitive #GenderWageGap. It's time for the math to change. ⏰ #EqualPayDay

It's Equal Pay Day. Women have lost ground for the second year in a row The annual observance marks how far into the new year women must work to make what men earned in the previous year. This year, it's March 26, a day later than it was in 2025.

What if every women in America voted for a progressive Democrat simultaneously? That's a MAJORITY! It's in their collective best interest.

The #genderwagegap is smallest among lower-wage workers partly because the minimum wage creates a wage floor. At the 10th percentile, women are paid $1.39 less per hour than men. Women at the 90th percentile of their wage distribution are paid $14.05 less per hour than men at their 90th percentile.

📢 Why do women & men earn different wages – & what role do firms play?

New research finds that firm differences explain a substantial share of the #GenderWageGap.

Did you know? According to a 2023 study conducted by Deloitte, women on average pay almost 18% more for health care over their lifetime compared to men, implying a pink tax on healthcare.

If you can expect to make less and pay more for health care and other essentials, it can be a barrier to escaping a financially abusive relationship. I know why she stayed, do you?
