On Latina Equal Pay Day, we raise our voices to address the critical wage disparity that Latinas face nationwide. Currently, Latina workers earn just 57 cents for every dollar that white, non-Hispanic men make. This pay gap affects more than just immediate financial stability; it impacts long-term economic security and hinders Latinas’ ability to accumulate wealth. The economic contributions of each Latina are valuable, and the consequences of this gap ripple out, affecting our whole society. Latinas are the backbone of our communities, leading households, and driving entrepreneurial ventures. We are the force of today and tomorrow. We deserve equal pay, and we will advocate for it every day of the year until we achieve true pay equity for Latinas. #LatinaEqualPayDay #PayEquity #EconomicJustice #LatinasLeading #EqualPay

?? Did you know that Latinas make up only 2% of the tech workforce? ?? Even though Latinas play a key role in driving both population and economic growth in the U.S., their presence in the tech industry remains minimal. It's time to close this gap. As we celebrate #HispanicHeritageMonth, we're shining a light on the need for greater Latina representation in tech and the push for a more diverse and inclusive future. ???? ?????? Each innovation, every project, and every success story from a Latina in tech moves us closer to a future where all voices are heard and valued. Let’s inspire and uplift the next wave of #LatinasInTech! ??? #RepresentationMatters #WomenInTech #Inclusion #DiversityInTech
