It just becomes harder to identify and easier to ignore. Enforcement gets weaker. Accountability disappears. @USEEOC Do not rescind the EEO-1. Keep this data collection in place!

On LGBTQ+ Equal Pay Day, let's be clear: economic justice is LGBTQ+ justice. When discrimination follows you into the workplace, it affects every part of your life—from whether you can pay your bills to whether you can build a future. More than one-third (35.9%) of LGBTQ+ adults say recent policy changes have made it harder to find a job, while too many continue to face barriers simply because of who they are. Equal work deserves equal pay. Equal talent deserves equal opportunity. And every LGBTQ+ person deserves the dignity of economic security. #LGBTQEqualPayDay #EconomicJustice #LGBTQEquality #PrideInYourPay
