EQUAL PAY NOW

Posted By: C. Harrison/April 17, 2015

Equal Pay Day was April 14, and a few weeks ago according to Kelly Byrne, National Issues Campaign Manager of Organizing for  Action, Senator Barbara Mikulski and Representative Rosa DeLauro reintroduced the Paycheck Fairness Act in Congress.  If passed the common sense legislation would update the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and help close the pay gap for women who are still paid less than men.

“This affects every family that works hard to make ends meet,” she said.

To earn the same as their male counterparts, full-time working women have to work on average of another 104 days.  THIS IS NOT RIGHT PEOPLE.
