✊ #EqualPay for Equal Work!
The guarantee of being paid the same, regardless of gender, was the driving force behind The Equal Pay Act, which was signed into law 63 years ago TODAY.
And that's the goal @LIUNA is fighting towards on every job.
Same job. Same skill. Same paycheck. Brother OR Sister. That's what the 1963 Equal Pay Act is supposed to guarantee, and what we're still fighting to make real on every jobsite.

✊ #WednesdayMotivation—"What can Labor do for itself?
"The answer is not difficult. Labor can organize, it can unify; it can consolidate its forces. This done, it can demand & command."—Eugene V. Debs, Activist & Trade Unionist.

🎥 Put @LIUNA VP @whosescity in a room of @JerseyCity developers & he's going to drop some truth:
"#LIUNA is a development #Union & we are uniquely positioned to be a partner in every aspect of development.
"There's not much separating us on development, other than fair wages."

Hablemos con nuestros compañeros. No sabemos quién necesite apoyo.

💪 La fuerza no solo es cuanto puedes levantar en el trabajo.
Admitir que algo no va bien, pedir ayuda y apoyar a otros también requiere de mucha fuerza.
Si algo pesa, ya sea en el trabajo o en nuestras mentes, es mejor pedir ayuda.

💪 Real #strength isn't just measured by what you can lift on the job.
It takes real strength to admit you're struggling; to ask for help; & to offer support to others.
Whether it's physical or mental, we're #strongest when we work together.
