Friend,​



The US Women's Soccer Team continue to fight for equal pay, despite constant attacks and negotiations breaking down. Their tenacity and drive make me confident that soon they'll come out ahead and win the fight for equal pay. Meanwhile, the rest of us need to follow their example and fight for women who don't have a national spotlight to aid their cause.



From being passed over for promotion after promotion to discovering that male colleagues are making far more despite having less experience, women in every industry face an uphill battle against a sexist system. But by standing with them, we can push for equal pay protections. My colleagues and I have been working hard in the House for exactly that, but we need your help to keep up the fight!

Equal pay simply won't happen if we wait around for industries to change on their own. It will take all of us banding together and calling for change. I'm proud to fight for equal pay in Congress, but I need your help so I can continue to do so. Will you chip in $100, $50, or $25 so we can finish what we started?



The pay gap is built on sexism. Nothing else. It's time to close the gap for good. Can I count on you to help?



Best,
Nydia
