Paid paternity leave is good for dads, moms, & families. @npr highlights @paidleaveforall research on major expansions in dads' use of paid leave to bond in state paid leave programs across the country. npr.org/2026/10/18/nx-s1-597…

Dad shift: Men now file majority of paid family leave claims in key states

The U.S. has no law guaranteeing paid parental leave. But in states with their own programs, more dads are using the benefit to bond with their new children, exceeding moms in some states.

If disabled women did not lose $24,000 to the wage gap, they could afford over a year of monthly rent and utilities or even four years of disability-related expenses. This #DWEPD, let’s recommit to building an economy where disabled women can thrive. npwf.info/4jxnvjw

⚠️ Job segregation ⚠️ Subminimum wages ⚠️ Employment discrimination These are all obstacles in the way of closing the wage gap for disabled women. Disabled women deserve equal pay for their work, not barriers to fair pay. #DWEPD nationalpartnership.org/repo…

Disabled Women and the Wage Gap | National Partnership for Women & Families

Disabled women are doing more with less: they are typically paid 56 cents for every dollar paid to nondisabled men.

As the affordability crisis squeezes family budgets across the country, and certain policymakers roll back equity and inclusion initiatives, disabled women face deeply-entrenched barriers to economic stability and security. #DWEPD #NDEAM nationalpartnership.org/repo…

Congress is still running on rules from more than 200 years ago—when women couldn't even vote, let alone serve in office.    No working parent should have to choose between caring for a 4-week-old newborn and doing their job. It's long past time to bring proxy voting for new parents and modernize Congress so it actually works for ALL people.

The horrific case at Cornell is a reminder of why strong Title IX protections matter. Survivors deserve accountability and commitment to safety. While the administration is gutting essential safeguards, we must push back to foster a culture of respect across every institution.

At 53¢ for every dollar, the gap between Latina women and white men is huge. Latina women's work is essential, but they lose $33,730 of pay each year. Latina women deserve to be paid for the value of the work they do. #LatinaEqualPay #Trabajadoras nationalpartnership.org/wp-c…

In 2026, everything is expensive and that makes it hard for families to pay for the things they need. It's even harder for Latina women – they’re paid just 53 cents for every dollar men are paid. But, if the wage gap closed, it would help in some major ways. #LatinaEqualPay Day

Working Latina women in the US face one of the largest wage gaps. They’re paid almost half – just 53 cents on the dollar – of what white men are paid. Finding a way to close that gap is essential on this #LatinaEqualPay Day and every day! nationalpartnership.org/wp-c…

📢 You may have hours left to register to vote! The best way to push back on efforts to discourage Americans from voting is to show up and make your voice heard this fall—and make sure other Americans’ voices are heard too.

Rather than building a system that works for the ultra wealthy at the expense of workers – especially working women – policymakers should be creating an economy that works for everyone.

That’s because women know this economy – which exploits working people to benefit the powerful – is being driven by the Trump administration’s policies which are keeping wages low and allowing discrimination and harassment to flourish. nationalpartnership.org/one-…

So it’s no surprise that women sharply disapprove of how the Trump administration is handling the economy. Women’s rating of the government’s economic policies has once again bottomed out at a nearly 50-year low.
Line graph entitled "Women's ratings of Trump's economic policies are historically low" showing women's ratings from January 2024 through August 2026 of the question, "As to the economic policy of the government - I mean steps taken to fight inflation or unemployment - would you say the government is doing a good job, only fair, or a poor job?" The line shows that in 2024 women's ratings hovered between roughly 75 to 90. Beginning after January 2025 when President Trump took office, women's ratings plunged steeply and have been at or below 51 points since March 2025.

Women’s job gains since January 2025 have also been meager, adding fewer than 36K jobs a month. The one real bright spot for women’s jobs – health care – has a bleak future. Trump’s signature law is set to cost the economy as many as 1.65M jobs by 2029 – driven by Medicaid cuts.

Black women's unemployment rate jumped dramatically to 6.8% in September, driven by more Black women joining the labor market but not being able to find work. Today’s data mean that close to two years into the second Trump Admin, less women are working than in January 2025.

Nearly two years into Trump's second term, a smaller share of women work and their approval of his economic policies are near record lows.
