Today, on #LGBTQIAEqualPay Awareness Day, we're calling on Congress to pass the BE HEARD in the Workplace Act, which would strengthen federal anti-discrimination law for all & make clear once and for all: discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity is illegal. No more loopholes or rollbacks. Every worker deserves protection. Email Congress at the link below to show your support. #PrideInYourPay #LGBTQIAequalpay #BeHEARD

EEO-1 data collections are NOT new. They have been utilized by both Democratic and Republican administrations since the 1960s to ensure workplace fairness. They are vital, non-partisan tools for accountability. We must protect them. #LGBTQEqualPay #PrideInYourPay

🏳️‍🌈✊🏼🏳️‍⚧️This#LGBTQIAequalpayday, we bring awareness to the fact that LGBTQIA+ workers earn about 90 cents on the dollar compared to their heterosexual and cisgender peers. We also acknowledge that the fight for worker's rights, doesn't stop at pay but also includes dignity and fair treatment of all workers in workplaces free from discrimination and harassment. That is why we need to pass The BE HEARD in the Workplace Act. 🚨Contact your members of Congress and urge them to support the BE HEARD in the Workplace Act. Together, we can grow a more powerful movement where every worker and their contributions are valued. #PrideInYourPay #LGBTQEqualPay #PrideatWork #PrideInYourPay

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) workers continue to face significant pay inequities driven by discrimination. Pay equity is a right, not a privilege. The lack of pay data on sexual orientation and gender identity makes it harder to identify and address pay gaps. Now, a federal agency wants to stop collecting basic data. We can’t fix what we can’t see. On this LGBTQIA+ Equal Pay Awareness Day, we urge you to stand up for workplace equity by joining AAUW’s Action Network. #PrideInYourPay #LGBTQEqualPay
