At the start of 2022, if a Black woman and a white man worked the same job, it would take her until today to earn the same wages as her white male colleague did by the end of the year.
We have work to do on the wage gap.
Pay us what you owe us. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay
Black women earn 67 cents to every dollar of their white male counterparts. On #BlackWomensEqualPayDay , we recognize the gap that still exists in industries across our city and country, and reiterate our commitment to push for equal pay for equal work.
Occupational segregation. Wage theft. Systematic exclusion…yet—still we rise.
July 27, 2023 marks how far into this year Black women must work in order to earn what non-Hispanic white men earned in 2022.
208 extra days. On we press.

Today is #BlackWomensEqualPayDay — the day in 2023 when Black women’s pay finally catches up with 2022 pay for white men. Our Democratic House passed Paycheck Fairness but Senate Republicans blocked it. Systemic racism won't vanish because Republicans pretend it doesn't exist.-NP
Equity & access should be the “expectation vs exception” Stephen Curry is spot-on — yes equal pay should be “standard” but to “level-up” any org, women need a voice in the C-suite and beyond.

On average, Black women are paid just 64 cents for every $1 paid to white men. At the current rate, Black women will have to wait over A CENTURY to earn equal pay in this country.
We need equal pay—NOW! #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

It is time for pay equity! I proudly introduced the #PaycheckFairnessAct to tackle pay discrimination and promote economic security for women and families.
Congress needs to stand up for equal pay, especially for women of color. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay #BlackWomenCantWait
🚨 Today is #BlackWomensEqualPayDay , a reminder that Black women continue to face a wage gap of 67 cents compared to non-Hispanic white men for full-time, year-round work.
It's time to close this gap and demand equal pay for equal work! #BlackWomenCantWait
Today is #BlackWomensEqualPayDay . In NY, on average, Black women were paid 67.8¢ on the $ compared to white non-Hispanic men. Equal work should always mean equal pay. I am proud to have advocated for the Salary Range Transparency bill in the Senate (in effect later this year)
Today is Black Women's Equal Pay Day. And no, it's not a day for celebration. Rather, it is a stark reminder of the inequality that persists in our society.

Thinking about the fact that Black women in Pennsylvania make 60 cents on the dollar compared to white men - that’s $25,799 a year and $1,031,000 over a lifetime of work. It’s time to #payblackwomen !

Today's #BlackWomensEqualPayDay . Federal lawmakers must pass the #PaycheckFairnessAct to combat pay discrimination and close the #WageGap , protect workers from retaliation for discussing pay, ban use of prior salary history, and codify pay data collection. #BlackWomenCantWait
I call on Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act to tackle pay discrimination and promote economic security for women and their families. It’s time to stand up for equal pay, especially for women of color. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay #BlackWomenCantWait
Our ancestors worked for free. Pay us what you owe us. PERIOD.

A quarter, a nickel, & three pennies is the difference between the amount that Black women are paid for a FT job versus white, non-Hispanic men. This costs #BlackWomen nearly $1M over 40-years. We must pass the Paycheck Fairness Act. - Christian Nunes #BlackWomen sEqualPayDay
American women, and Black women in particular, earn less than men for the same work. That's why earlier this year I introduced three bills to help close the pay gap.
