This Labor Day weekend, the National LGBTQ Task Force is calling on
Congress to take more actions that will help our nation’s workers.
“Congress must do more to provide workers with the tools they need to
provide economic security for them and their families. We need a living
wage, not a minimum wage that’s impossible to live on. We need paid
leave for all, not unpaid
leave for the most vulnerable workers. We need equal pay for women, not
higher pay for men doing the same job. Tell your members of Congress to
honor Labor Day by advancing legislation that will fully support the
hardworking people of this nation that they
were sent to Washington, DC to represent," said Stacey Long Simmons,
Director of Public Policy & Government Affairs, National LGBTQ Task
Force.
