President Obama Supports Equal Pay for Equal Work … does your member of Congress? a repost


Hi,

On average, full-time working women earn 77 cents for every dollar earned by men.

Worse still? Many women don’t even know they’re underpaid. And because 51% of women report they are discouraged or forbidden from discussing their wages, they can’t take steps that would ensure they’re earning fair pay at work.

That’s why today, on Equal Pay Day, President Obama is taking action.

See what President Obama is doing to address the gap — then share the news.

Women deserve fair pay at work. Check out this graphic, and pass it on.

Thanks,

Cecilia

Tell Shell that actions speak louder than words: Stop funding the American Legislative Exchange Council’s attacks on climate science.

Everytown for Gun Safety

 

Donate to Pass Background Checks

My life changed forever two years ago when my wife, Cindy Yuille, was shot and murdered at the Clackamas Town Center mall here in Oregon. It was two weeks before Christmas.

I don’t want anyone to ever have to experience this pain — which is why I’m fighting for a strong background check law in Oregon, and why I need your help.

Everytown supporters like you helped close the background check loophole at the ballot in Washington State last year. Now we want to make Oregon the first state of 2015 to follow suit, and send a message to the NRA that their years of controlling our nation’s gun laws are over.

Can you make a donation of $5 or more to help continue the fight for life-saving background checks in Oregon and all across the country?

Your donation will help fund critical advocacy efforts including advertising, organizing volunteers to meet with lawmakers, and driving calls and emails to lawmakers.

Background checks are the single most effective way to keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people.

And because people like you invested time, energy, and dollars in electing gun sense champions last fall, we have a real shot at making it the law of the land here in Oregon.

But only you can help get this legislation across the finish line and put Oregon on the map as the country’s newest background check state. The next few weeks in the state legislature will be crucial in Oregon.

Give $5 or more today to fuel the fight for background checks in Oregon and across the country:

Our families deserve to feel safe. The more support we get from people like you, the better chance we stand at making comprehensive background checks a reality in every state.

Thank you so much for your support. It means a lot to me and my family.
