I’ve been told to “go back to where you came from.” It hurts. It is an ugly and racist taunt. We must teach our children better.

56 years ago today, President Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act to prevent wage discrimination against women — a struggle we are still fighting in 2019.

It is time to finally ensure pay equity for women workers. Equal pay for equal work isn't radical. It's basic justice.

Latinas hold 2% of STEM jobs... let that sink in for a minute before you question why many Latinas who are in STEM try to be visible. Not for our own benefit, but for that one girl who does not yet see her potential

The Waltons – the owners of Walmart – earn $25,000 a minute.

The average Walmart employee makes $25,000 a year.

My message to the Waltons is simple: Pay your employees a living wage of $15 an hour!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

“6 weeks pregnant” = 2 weeks late on your period.

Most of the men writing these bills don’t know the first thing about a woman’s body outside of the things they want from it. It’s relatively common for a woman to have a late period + not be pregnant.

So this is a backdoor ban.
