Urge Senators to Support the Paycheck Fairness Act

Urge Senators to Support the Paycheck Fairness Act

The Issue

In every state in the country, women earn significantly less than men. The Paycheck Fairness Act would strengthen current laws against wage discrimination and provide tools to enable the federal government to be more proactive in the fight. In 45 years, women's wages compared to men's have only increased by 19 cents. We still have 22 cents to go. The bill has already passed the House, so voice your support and help it pass in the Senate.
