        #WomensEqualityDay If US women were given the vote in 1920 I make it "96 years after women won the vote" not 97.

        Our bad! 96 is correct. Typo notwithstanding, we stand by our msg: at work and in voting, men & women deserve equal treatment

        "Earnings" are not the same as "wages." Did someone force you to tweet this, or is someone at the DOL this moronic?

        It's AGAINST FEDERAL LAW to pay women less than men for doing the exact same work and has been since 1963. https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/statutes/epa.cfm …

        it's too bad the dept of labor has decided to play partisan politics and use spin and out right lies each day. Negates credibility.

        .@USDOL of course earnings aren't equal because of life and education choices made by women themselves.

        Women get paid the same for the same work. They EARN less because they choose lower paying jobs and work fewer hours than men do.

        maybe women would make more if they got a degree in business ethics and not women's studies. ☕️🐸

        The "77%" statistics were from a study by the US Dept of Labor, correct? Is someone willfully misunderstanding their own study?

        EARNINGS =/= PAY If you want more, get a job that pays more and work the same amount of hours as men.
