WHITE HOUSE - Equal Pay for Women, Raising Awareness
WASHINGTON, DC - Do you support equal pay for women?
It's been nearly 50 years since Congress passed the Equal Pay Act, but today a woman who works full time still earns just 77* cents for every dollar earned by a man.
That's not just unfair. When women, who make up nearly half the workforce, bring home less money each day, it means they have less for the everyday needs of their families. That's bad for kids, it's bad for communities, and it's bad for the entire country.
So President Obama is supporting the Paycheck Fairness Act, which is designed to update the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and help close the pay gap. Congress is scheduled to vote on the legislation this week.
To help raise awareness of pay discrimination and make it clear that it is a problem with serious consequences, we've put together a series of e-cards to highlight the issue.
Pick your favorite, then email it to your friends or share it online:
