Graphic with text that reads, ‘Climate change is expensive. Climate change is not an equal opportunity crisis. Climate change disproportionately affects Black and brown communities, low-income families, the elderly and children. Fossil fuel companies have profited for decades while driving the climate crisis, yet taxpayers are the ones paying for the damages caused by extreme weather.’

Maryland themed graphic. Text reads, ‘for decades, taxpayers have covered the cost of climate disasters while big oil continues to profit. That includes essential taxpayer funding for schools, libraries and businesses. It includes the following facts (1) from 2005 to 2010, nearly 120 pounds of toxic pollutants were released into Baltimore city. (2) In 2010, Baltimore’s asthma-related hospitalizations were almost 3x times higher than the US average. Asthma disparities follow sociodemographic lines in areas of high poverty.’

🧵 THREAD: This #EqualPayDay, let’s not forget how many of our workplace rights were only secured in the last few decades.

💪✨ We need to fight for our rights.

Here’s are a few examples:

📍 In 1963, the Equal Pay Act required employers to provide equal pay for equal work regardless of gender.

📍 In 1964, the Civil Rights Act prohibited discrimination based on gender, race, religion, color, or national origin in public places, schools, and employment. Before, it was legal to refuse employment opportunities to women.

📍 In 1978, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act made it illegal for employers to discriminate against pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.

📍 In 1988, the Women’s Business Ownership Act created support for women business owners and eliminated the requirement for male co-signers on loans.

📍 In 1993, the Family and Medical Leave Act gave some workers paid family leave, and provided job protection and security for employees who took unpaid time off to care for a relative or family member.

📍 In 2010, the PUMP Act expanded the Break Time law, which provides key workplace protections for nursing mothers, including reasonable break time to nurse and a private place to pump.

📍 In 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court held that an employer who fires or otherwise discriminates against an individual simply for being gay or transgender is in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

📍 In 2024, the Department of Labor introduced a Final Rule to end an employer’s ability to pay individuals with disabilities subminimum wages.
