“Latinas Rise, Together” in Support of Latina Equal Pay Day
Girls Nite Live is proud to support this Panel Discussion with Chemistry Cultura to address the issue of pay equity among Latinas throughout the United States. Latinas have long been an economic powerhouse, and in recent years have made significant strides in the areas of education, politics, and the workplace. Today, more than 50 years after the passage of the Equal Pay Act of 1963, Latinas still typically earn only 49 cents for every dollar earned by white, non-Hispanic men and therefore must work more than 2 years to earn what their male counterparts earned in 12 months.
