On average, women are paid just 80 cents for every $1 paid to male counterparts. For women of color, the #wagegap is much larger. #EqualPayDay #talkpay https://t.co/jHLKoGWx6f

[Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance, AFL-CIO @APALAnational]

How can we close the pay gap? Unionize!

Union women earn $231 more than women without a union voice. #EqualPayDay #1uAAPI

[Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance, AFL-CIO @APALAnational]

It’s #EqualPayDay, but many women of color won't see their wages catch up to those of white men until as late as NOVEMBER. It is time to #TalkPay in this country & close the #WageGap for ALL women.

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

Retweet if you agree that America needs unions! #1u

"If we are to achieve pay equity across all industries and sectors, unions must be able to represent women workers on the job." Check out this latest op-ed from APALA's very own @yehforvina
