#ItsBetterInAUnion for more than just salary. When we empower more women to form and join unions, we advance pay equity, salary transparency, benefits, leadership growth & so much more in the workplace & beyond. #EqualPayDay

All women deserve equal pay for equal work.
Women in unions earn 22% more than nonunion women; for women of color, the wage gap is essentially closed when they have a union contract. #EqualPayDay
