Today, March 26, 2026 is Equal Pay Day. It marks how many days into 2026 women must work just to match what men were paid in 2025.

In 2025, the gender wage gap widened, with women earning 18.6% less than men per hour on average.

Pay equity is not just about fairness. It is about economic security for families and communities.
