Most everyone knows that, on average, women earn 77 cents for every dollar a man earns.  This year April 8th was declared Equal Pay Day as the day when women’s pay equaled the pay that men earned in all of 2013.  But did you know that there are several really Unequal Pay Days?

June 12 was moms’ Equal Pay Day, the symbolic day when moms’ earnings catch up to dads’ from the previous year. It takes so long because working mothers typically are paid 69 cents for every dollar working dads are paid. June 16 is African American women’s Equal Pay Day, and November 12 is Latinas’ Equal Pay Day.  Tell Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act.
