Latina workers lose about $1.2 million over the course of a 40-year career due to the wage gap.

This isn’t equity—it’s injustice. Latinas deserve fair pay now. #LatinaEqualPay

The Trump admin's claim that no one has died from cuts to USAID is devastatingly and disastrously untrue. Their attacks on USAID stranded lifesaving medication and children died waiting in the DRC. Congress cannot sit idly by and must fund lifesaving aid.

Today, as they meet, President Trump must act now to compel Prime Minister Netanyahu to change course: to uphold international law, ensure accountability, end impunity and secure a permanent ceasefire.

In his #UNGA80 speech, President Trump denied the climate crisis, bragged about ending wars & economic woes that his policies exacerbate & undermined the UN. Meanwhile, conflicts escalate & climate and inequality impacts grow. Shameful.

The Trump Administration is prioritizing billionaire wealth over the lives of millions around the world, who will now be pushed even deeper into poverty. This is an inequality crisis.

Political violence should have no place in America. Reprehensible acts of violence have harmed people of every political persuasion, undermining our democracy and safety.

We can't let billionaire corporations get away with mistreating their workers to further pad their profit margins. We applaud Senator Hawley and @warren.senate.gov's bipartisan pressure on Amazon’s unfair schedules that prevent workers from managing child care, education, or a second job.

Established in 1938, child labor protections are now up for debate in 2025. 17 states have weakened child labor protections by lowering the age of working, extending the hours they can work, and removing the need for parental consent.

"Some places make it easier to thrive—fair wages, paid leave and protections that actually matter. Others... not so much."

With inequality on the rise, is your state a good place to work? Oxfam's index helps break that down:

When Hurricane Katrina made landfall on August 29, 2005, it changed the Gulf Coast and the way Oxfam operates forever. Like so many of you, we watched in horror as the gov't failed to respond in the aftermath of the storm.

How disaster brought us together
Twenty years after Hurricane Katrina transformed Oxfam’s approach to domestic operations, we continue to uplift communities in the South.
