AI-generated summary, report an errorThis concurrent resolution would have Congress formally recognize the difference between wages paid to women and men and its impact on women, families, and the country. It would also have Congress reaffirm its commitment to supporting equal pay and narrowing the gender wage gap. The resolution lists Census Bureau and other figures on pay differences by sex, race, education level, disability, and parenthood, and notes that March 26, 2026, is designated as Equal Pay Day. It does not create new laws, programs, or funding.
