Our executive director @mditkowsky and Board President @knilirabaj were able to celebrate 30 incredible years of @AAPD. Thank you to @maria_m_town and her team for all the work they do to support and lift up our community. Here's to another 30 years! #AAPD30 #CripTheLaw

Stories about pushing through unnecessary, discriminatory barriers are not inspiring. They're indicative of a profession that has normalized--and continues to justify--systematic exclusion and inaccessibility. No one should have to go through this. #CripTheLaw #AbolishTheBar

Did you know that having more education doesn’t help close the wage gap for disabled women: they face a wage gap at all education levels compared to nondisabled men? Disabled women legal professionals deserve to thrive. #DisabledWomensEPD #CripTheLaw

This year, disabled women are facing massive cuts to employment programs and services , and even our ability to track those cuts is being blocked. When data disappears, so do our stories. That’s why #DisabledWomensEqualPayDay matters more than ever.

Racism and ableism create compounded wage gaps for disabled women of color. It's time to demand a fair economy that works for EVERYONE. Equal Pay for Equal Work! #DisabledWomensEPD #DisabledWomensEqualPayDay

Today is #DisabledWomensEqualPayDay, but it’s nothing to celebrate. Disabled women unfortunately aren’t paid the same as their white, male counterparts. Did you know that disabled women make just 50¢ for every non-disabled man’s dollar?

🗣️Today marks #DisabledWomensEqualPayDay! A day that shines a light on how deeply inequality runs in our economy. For every dollar paid to a man w/o a disability, a woman w/ a disability earns only 56 cents. Urge Congress to support policies that end wage discrimination! action.momsrising.org/sign/disabled-… @EqualPay2dayOrg

Disabled women and femmes deserve to work, earn, and thrive , not be trapped in segregated workplaces or paid subminimum wages. Congress must act now: - Pass the Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act (TCIEA) - Stop the rollback of equal employment protections under Executive Order 11246 and Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act Pay equity means nothing without employment equity. #DisabledWomensEqualPayDay
