For decades, New Yorkers who need to take time off for their own health needs have been expected to survive on a paltry $170/week, without job-protection or the ability to take leave intermittently. Join us in telling the NY Assembly: Pass A84! takeaction.io/abb/tell-you...

"It’s time to end the sub-minimum wage for tipped restaurant workers—many of whom are single mothers—by demanding One Fair Wage with ‘tips on top’ in NYS. No mom should have to rely on unpredictable tips to feed her children." Jon Wegienek, Westchester Women's Agenda

"As an expecting mother myself, I worry the cost of child care will drive my family out of New York.... Child care shouldn't be a luxury reserved for the rich. It should be every mother's right." Rebecca Bailin, @ny4childcare.bsky.social

EEOC, OFCCP, Women's Bureau, and NLRB are facing devastating cuts that leave workplace protections unenforceable. Without these agencies, who will protect moms' rights at work? Take action now for #MomsEqualPayDay + #EqualPayNY! equalrights.quorum.us/campaign/121...

There is no #EqualPayNY without #MomsEqualPay. We need stronger laws and substantial investment in:
✅ Expanding Pay Transparency Laws
✅ Making child care accessible to all
✅ Fair Pay for Care workers
✅ Expanding Paid leave

This #MomsEqualPayDay, speak up for stronger worker protections! Help NYS & NYC strengthen our salary range disclosure laws with NYC Int. 808A and NYS A5906/S5990, and advance gender pay gap reporting with Int 982 & 984. #EqualPayNY www.powherny.org/2025/03/19/e...

The #MotherhoodPenalty does not affect all mothers equally. Black, Latina & Indigenous mothers earn as little as 48¢, 38¢, and 32¢ respectively for every $1 white, non-Hispanic fathers earn, when including full-time and part-time workers. #EqualPayNY #MomsEqualPayDay
May 6, 2025 at 6:03 PM
In New York, full-time working mothers earn 79¢ to every $1 fathers earn. Including full & part-time workers, NY moms earn only 65¢ to every $1 a dad earns. We need to end the unfair #MotherhoodPenalty that takes a toll on women’s earnings & careers. #EqualPayNY #MomsEqualPayDay

Today is #DenimDay to support sexual assault survivors. On this day, PowHer is calling attention to how workplace sexual harassment can take a toll on women’s health and careers, contributing to the persisting #GenderPayGap. NY must continue to unequivocally condemn sexual assault + harassment.

CALLING ALL NY MOMS! For #MomsEqualPayDay, send us a short quote or video calling on our state and local elected leaders to prioritize policies that support New York mothers and families. Help us send a message to our leaders about what moms REALLY want ahead of #MothersDay! bit.ly/NYMOMS
