Together, we made history at the Women’s March. Now take the next step!

Scarier than your worst 90’s outfit
Throwback Thursday (#TBT) is usually a lighthearted way to show off your best (or worst) 90’s outfit or that funny picture of you as a toddler – but today’s #TBT is not nearly so amusing.

Taking a Principled Approach to the Provision of LARCs

Most Women in the Fast Food Industry Can’t Earn Paid Sick Days, Have Gone to Work Sick
Data from a new national survey reveal seven in 10 women working in the fast food industry say they have gone to work with symptoms of illness. Only 14 percent of women in the industry, and a mere 6 percent of women who are paid less than $9 per hour, say they have access to paid sick days.
Voters in Arizona and Washington Choose Paid Sick Days
Capping off an already historic year of progress for paid sick days, voters in Arizona and Washington approved ballot measures last week that will mean the nation will soon have seven statewide paid sick days laws.
