🚨 BIG WIN, but the clock is ticking! 🚨 The NYS Senate passed the Benefits Transparency Act—massive progress for pay equity. But the Assembly session ends Friday! We need @speakercarlheastie.bsky.social to bring A5906 to the floor NOW. We need 60 seconds: equalrights.quorum.us/campaign/163... 🧵👇

Huge thanks to Assemnblymember Harry Bronson for sponsoring the Remedial Construction of NY Labor Law Act (A10365), which just passed the Assembly! 🏛️ Now, we urge the Senate & @jessicaramosqns.bsky.social to pass the bill and send it to @governor.ny.gov to ensure NY workers are truly protected. ⚖️👷‍♂️

The Mayor’s budget slashes the Commission on Human Rights by 10.36%—the largest cut of any city agency. Without funding and staff, CCHR can’t protect low-income New Yorkers or fight discrimination. We're demanding a $10M increase instead. Join us to fight back: 🗓️ Wed, May 27 | 9 AM 📍 City Hall Steps

In New York, your employer doesn't have to tell you if you're being paid fairly. The Benefits Transparency Act would change that. Tell your lawmakers to pass it now. equalrights.quorum.us/campaign/162...

Thank you @agounardes.bsky.social for your sponsorship of Do Not Darken My Door in the Senate, which prohibits "no rehire" clauses in employment severance and settlement agreements. The bill moves to the Assembly, where it is carried by @catalinacruzny.bsky.social.

Thank you @shelleybmayer.bsky.social for passing the Motivating Factor Bill in the Senate, which clarifies that the "motivating factor," rather than than "but-for" causation standard, applies to discrimination claims under the Human Rights Law.

Thank you @nysenatorramos.bsky.social for passing the Anti-Waiver of Employment Rights Act in the Senate, so employers can't require workers to "agree" to shorten the time to file wage theft & discrimination claims. The bill is now on the Assembly floor, carried by Labor Chair Harry Bronson.

Thank you @nysenatorramos.bsky.social for passing the Labor Law Enforcement Parity Act through the Senate. It ensures that workers in class action wage theft cases filed in state court can recover all available damages. Next up: the Assembly, where it is carried by Labor Chair Harry Bronson.

Did you know that the pay gap is wider for disabled women of color? Sexism, racism, and ableism means we’re paid even less than nondisabled men. We need equal pay now to lift disabled women out of poverty! Take Action here: tinyurl.com/DWEPD25 #DisabledWomensEPD

We joined @nwlc.org and 170+ organizations to condemn Trump's cruel and lawless anti-trans executive order. This order doesn't “protect” women from any real threat, but actively endangers all women. Read our full letter here: app.sosha.ai/s/X7JRIVKk
