Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This concurrent resolution would have Congress recognize the difference in wages paid to Latina women compared to White, non-Hispanic men, and the effect of that difference on women, families, the economy, and the country. It would also have Congress reaffirm its support for equal pay and closing the gender wage gap. The resolution notes that October 8, 2025, is designated as "Latina Equal Pay Day" and cites Census data stating that Latinas working full-time, year-round are paid 58 cents for every dollar paid to White, non-Hispanic men. It does not create new laws, programs, or funding.
