Presidential Candidates Call Out 'Shameful' Wage Gap For Latinas

A slew of Democratic candidates for president drew attention on Twitter to Latina Equal Pay Day on Wednesday a day that marks how far into the year Latina women on average have to work in order to earn what their white, male counterparts earned the previous year.

Women who work full time, year-round in the United States were paid only 82 cents for every dollar paid to their male counterparts in 2018, according the National Womens Law Center. For women of color, the wage gap is even wider , with Black women making 62 cents, Native women 57 cents and Latina women 54 cents for every dollar paid to white men.

These wage gap figures are not broken down by job or industry, as it is meant to reflect the multiple barriers women face to equal pay, not only including lower pay for performing the same job as men, but also the underrepresentation of women in higher-paying jobs, bias against women who have to care for children or family and a lack of workplace policies to support them.

While Equal Pay Day for women broadly is commemorated on April 10, Latina Equal Pay Day is Nov. 20.

Many Democratic hopefuls took to Twitter Wednesday to call out the shameful, per Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), and outrageous, per Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), status quo of Latina women getting paid almost half as much as white men on average.

Former Obama Housing Secretary Julin Castro nodded to his hard-working mother, adding: Millions of Latinas are doing the same, working hard, and still only making 54 cents for every dollar made by a white man.

On #LatinaEqualPayDay I think about how hard my mom worked to support me and my brother @JoaquinCastrotx.

Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) called out her equal pay plan, which would ensure corporations will pay women fairly or pay the price. Harris sweeping proposal , released in May, would require companies to prove that their pay practices are fair or face fines.

Economic justice is on the ballot when Latinas, on average, earn just 53 cents for every dollar a white man makes. Under my equal pay plan, corporations will pay women fairlyor pay the price. #LatinaEqualPay
