Bill overview
This resolution recognizes the significant and persistent pay disparity experienced by disabled women compared to both disabled and nondisabled men. Data from 2023 shows that disabled women earn considerably less than their counterparts, with the gap varying significantly based on race and disability type. The resolution highlights systemic barriers such as discrimination, limited access to services, and occupational segregation that contribute to this inequality, and reaffirms the commitment to equal pay and addressing these inequities.
