The same rules the Trump admin deems burdensome and unnecessary are the same protections essential to things like ensuring worker safety and stopping retaliation for reporting discrimination. Once again, it’s clear who matters to them and who doesn’t. apnews.com/article/labor-…

Thank you to Jessica Grose at the @nytimes for citing @NPWF’s recent report on how the recently passed budget bill could force the closure of over 100 rural labor and delivery units. Slashing Medicaid funding will hurt an already struggling population. nytimes.com/2025/07/09/opi…

For too long, Black women have been forced to work twice as hard to get half as far, facing steep barriers, discrimination, and lack of opportunity to succeed. I’m proud to introduce the Black Women's Equal Pay Day Resolution and continue our fight for wage equity in America.

Over a 40-year career, Black women working full-time year-round lose over $1 million to the wage gap. That’s $1 million not going toward a home, retirement, education, child care, or generational wealth. This #BlackWomensEqualPayDay, we’re demanding more than awareness—we’re…

📊 In 1967, Black women were paid 43 cents for every dollar white non-Hispanic men were paid. 📊 In 2023, they were paid 66 cents. That’s 56 years and only a 23-cent gain. Black women deserve more than slow progress. They deserve equal pay. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay

Black women workers who are full-time workers make ¢66 for every dollar paid to white male full-time workers. This #BlackWomensEqualPayDay, the fight for equal pay, especially for black women, is more important than ever. When Black women win, we all win. nationalpartnership.org/trump-administ…

jocelyncfrye's tweet card. July 10, 2025 is Black Women's Equal Pay Day, commemorating how far into the year that Black women need to work to earn what white, non-Hispanic men made in the previous year.

Senate Republicans voted to effectively “defund” Planned Parenthood to make abortion care even harder to access and shut down health centers. Let’s call this what it is: a backdoor abortion ban. We'll continue to fight for people who rely on these essential services. #IFightForPP

Today is the 60th anniversary of the EEOC! Understanding its essential role, its history, and the continued importance of its work is more critical than ever in a moment where the Trump administration is aggressively pushing an anti-civil rights agenda. nationalpartnership.org/eeoc-mission-c…
