Two groups advocating for women gathered in the City Hall Rotunda on Monday, demanding that the Big Apple finally find an equal “paying” field.
On March 24, CWA Local 1180 and PowHerNY assembled to call for the administration to amend and close loopholes in current laws that allow businesses to pay women less than their male counterparts. The rally was held in conjunction with Equal Pay Day, which symbolizes how far into the current year women must work to earn what men earned in the previous year.
