On Wednesday New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed updated legislation aimed at eliminating the gender wage gap ✊🏻✊🏽✊🏿 in which employers can longer pay person lower wages based on their gender identity, sexual orientation or race.
Cuomo:
#BREAKING just signed new pay equity legislation at the #USWNTParade. The women's soccer team plays the same game that the men’s soccer players play — only better. If anything, the men should get paid less. Thank you @USWNT for helping lead this movement for change!
I love NY and I'm proud all the progressive and inclusive laws our officials put into place.
