Statement “Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) women face a deeply damaging wage gap that creates hardship for them, their families, and communities. NHPI women working full-time, year-round are paid just 66 cents for each dollar paid to white men.

Statement “Moms' Equal Pay Day is a painful reminder that even as prime-age women are participating in the paid workforce at record-high rates, moms continue to face a punishing wage gap. Without action from Congress to root out workplace discrimination and build the care infrastructure our country needs, the wage gap will almost certainly remain unacceptably and alarmingly high.

Statement “When U.S. Senate Republicans killed a temporary expansion of the Child Tax Credit today, they rejected a policy that’s proven to lift our economy and to be a sure-fire way for people to have the tools they need to be able to work, take care of their families, and contribute to their communities.

A mom is dead, a family devastated, a community immeasurably harmed by yet another racist, wholly unjustified police murder. Tragically, nobody should be surprised.
