Let's stand with working moms for #MomsEqualPayDay! The EEOC wants to stop collecting data that's been used for 60 years to identify hiring/pay discrimination. Without this data, discrimination against moms will be harder to prove and easier to ignore. Take action!

Moms are the backbone of our economy, balancing paid work and unpaid caregiving at home. Yet workplace structures, bias, and lack of investment in childcare continue to limit their pay and opportunities. This isn’t about individual choices. It’s about systems that continue to fail at supporting working women and families. Workforce data helps identify disparities, address the barriers women and mothers face in the economy, and strengthen civil rights enforcement. Now, a federal agency, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, wants to stop collecting it. On this Mom’s Equal Pay Day, we urge you to oppose this move and stand up for workplace equity.

Why aren’t moms paid equally for the work they do? Factors like societal expectations and lack of supports are what got us here. #MomsEqualPay
