At the current pace, Latinas won’t reach pay equity with white men until 2160 for full-time, year-round workers—and not until 2178 for all Latinas with earnings.

Latinas are still paid just 54¢ for every $1 paid to white, non-Hispanic men. This number reflects all Latinas with reported earnings—including migrant, seasonal, part-time, and gig workers—because organizing for change must include everyone.

🚨 Trump’s nominee Jennifer Mascott has advanced to a full Senate vote.

She’s defended presidential immunity—refusing to say if Trump could be prosecuted for ordering an assassination.

Mascott is dangerous for democracy.

Tell your senators to OPPOSE her nomination: act.nwlc.org/a/mascott?MS...
Tell the Senate: Vote NO on Mascott for the Third Circuit
We need judges who will protect the rule of law and hold Trump accountable.

This is fascism, plain and simple, and we cannot stop calling it what it is.

Trump didn't stop with D.C. He won't stop with Chicago and Portland. If we don't fight back, he'll keep going until he consolidates power in every city and every town. We can't let that happen.

Trump sent troops from the National Guard to Chicago days ago, and they have unleashed havoc on the city. Troops have thrown gas canisters at protesters, deployed tear gas on streets w/ no warning, and raided apartments in the middle of the night, zip-tying children & separating them from families.

"In testifying, Cassie represented so many Black women who have been told to stay quiet. Survivors who have been told no one will believe them. Artists whose dreams were derailed by someone more powerful."
Cassie Testified. We Believe Her.
Cassie’s story serves as a devastating reminder of how abuse can keep women from doing their work, building stability, and reaching their full potential.

No one should face barriers to making choices about their body or their future. Access to birth control is a right, not a privilege. #FreeThePill #WorldContraceptionDay

Let's be clear: If a shutdown happens, it's because Trump and some members of Congress refuse to negotiate. Instead, the administration is threatening to fire thousands of federal workers—who work on critical programs serving millions of Americans—unless they get what they want.

At a time when families are expected to struggle even more to put food on the table after cuts to SNAP and other nutrition assistance, we need reliable data on what's happening in communities. This move by the Trump administration to end the annual report on hunger is yet another attack on families.
Trump ends annual report on U.S. hunger amid rising food insecurity
The Trump administration is ending a decades-long report on U.S. hunger, calling it “politicized.” Last year, the USDA report warned of rising food insecurity.

BREAKING: After a week of protests, Disney announced that Jimmy Kimmel will return to air.

This is why we fight. And this is why we must continue to fight, every time this authoritarian government attempts to destroy our freedoms. When we refuse to back down, our collective power can change things.

A federal judge blocked Trump's illegal move to push immigrant kids out of Head Start. This means children can keep learning and thriving without fear of being excluded—for now.

But the fight isn't over. We'll keep advocating until every child's right to early education is secure.

Today is #ConstitutionDay, and we are reminded of the many ways that the Trump admin has weaponized government & ignored the law, attacking our rights and freedoms, all to seize power and evade accountability.

We must continue the fight for a government by and for the people, not the powerful few.
