#equalpay protections and combat discriminatory pay practices.#BlackWomenCantWait for#PaycheckFairnessShow this thread -
There's only one way to challenge pay discrimination: change the law. Earlier this year, the House passed the
#PaycheckFairness Act, an important first step towards ensuring that Black women are paid fairly for their work.#PayBlackWomenpic.twitter.com/Siqjh37IXm

Absolutely! Do you have a plan to help African-American women specifically? What will you do to eliminate racism and its effects and help us overcome the legacy of discrimination?

What I don’t get is how Dem use AFRICAN AMERICANS as WEPONS & not HUMAN BEINGS. They used
@RepCummings VICTIMS to attack@POTUS because he “Tweeted” about VICTIMS. Dem used them & as soon as they finished with them they walked away. Not one said WE NEED TO HELP THEMThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
