AANHPI Women’s Equal Pay Day


April 3 is AANHPI (Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander) Women’s Equal Pay Day.

AANHPI women working full-time, year-round are paid an average 90 cents per $1 paid to non-Hispanic white men, according to the latest U.S. Census data. For those working part-time or part-year, this number drops to 80 cents. Worse yet, for many of the 50+ ethnic subgroups under the AANHPI umbrella, women make as little as 54 cents per white man’s $1.

Here’s how you can help demand equal pay for AANHPI women:

  1. Raise awareness by participating in the national social media storm at 11:00 am PT/2:00 pm ET. Our new toolkit makes digital advocacy easier than ever!
  2. Send a pre-drafted email urging Congress to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act, which would strengthen protections for women and close loopholes in the Equal Pay Act of 1963.
  3. Donate to support equal pay. Help fund equal pay awareness and empower our mission to close the wage gap by giving to the Equal Pay Today campaign.
