Nobody wins when employers punish productive, talented employees (and, in particular, parents) for needing some flexibility at work. The health of our workplaces depends on fundamentally reframing how we view work-life balance. @Gleb_Tsipursky @thehill:

"Abortion clinics have seen a dramatic influx in out-of-state patients since the fall of Roe. Clinic closures in those places could force patients to travel even farther for abortions, get care later in pregnancy or drive up what patients have to pay."

It's unacceptable that in 2025, Black women are still being underpaid and undervalued. Awareness isn't enough – we need policy action to close the gender and racial wage gap. #BlackWomensEqualPayDay.

Black, Southern, and rural workers bear the brunt of abusive state laws that ban cities, towns, and counties from passing paid sick time policies—even when communities want it. New analysis out today from @abetterbalance & @npwf:

"For an administration that often touts the concept of fetal personhood and the rights of unborn babies, it sends a clear message: In ICE custody, a pregnant woman's rights — or those of the developing child in her womb — aren’t worth much."

RT @ABetterBalance: Today marks the 60th anniversary of the creation of the U.S. EEOC, which enforces workplace civil rights laws. The ag….

The Senate just voted to make HUGE cuts to our social safety net - stripping millions of their health insurance and taking food from families' tables - in favor of tax breaks for the wealthy. This is shameful. The House must vote NO on the reconciliation bill.

The PWFA marks a landmark civil rights victory for working women, who, for decades, risked being pushed off the job for needing basic accommodations while pregnant. @ABetterBalance on how it got done:

Today we celebrate two years of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. I'm so proud to be part of the organization that spearheaded this critical law, which has made a difference in the lives of so many moms and moms-to-be and moved the needle on gender equity in this country.

An average of 1 in 4 women exit the workforce during their first year of motherhood. Paid maternity leave and the promise of returning to a workplace that prioritizes support, patience, and flexibility for new parents can make a world of difference.

RT @ABetterBalance: Over the last two years, countless pregnant and postpartum workers have exercised their rights to access accommodations….

"By working to make birth free and removing financial barriers to prenatal and postpartum treatment, women will be able to get the necessary care, improving their overall health and safety and giving their children a stronger start in life."

3 years ago Roe v. Wade was overturned and women are dying preventable deaths because they can't access essential reproductive care. Today, I'm thinking of women like Porsha Ngumezi, Josseli Barnica, and Nevaeh Crain - they all deserved better.

“The stress of making sure your child comes into this world safely should not be coupled with the stress of making sure you budgeted enough money to care for them.”. Dad like Ben know firsthand - we need #PaidLeaveForAll.

In most states, the cost of childcare now rivals the cost of rent or mortgage. Something is very wrong here. @ChabeliC_

75 million working women form the backbone of our economy – and we deserve better than extremist attacks on our rights and bodily autonomy. I'm standing with @the75million_ and calling for action from our elected officials.

As we celebrate #Juneteenth, we must continue to fight for the dignity of incarcerated people, especially Black inmates, whose labor – though undervalued and unprotected – undergirds our economy. More from @EconomicPolicy:

75 million working women form the backbone of our economy—and we're ready to fight back against the Trump Administration's dangerous attacks on workplace equity. @the75million_. A Better Balance & partners in today's @nytimes:

LGBTQ households make just 85 cents for every dollar that non-LGBTQ households earn. On #LGBTQIAEqualPay Day, we demand economic justice and equality for LGBTQ families.

"The Republican megabill now before the Senate cuts taxes for high earners and reduces benefits for the poor. If it’s enacted, that combination would make it more regressive than any major tax or entitlement law in decades."
