Summary
October 8, 2025 is Latina Equal Pay Day, and this year is the 10th anniversary of the Latina Equal Pay campaign. For the last decade it has marked the day we call attention to the pay gap that Latinas face in the United States and across the world.

Description

For all Latinas with reported earnings, the pay gap is, on average 54 cents for every dollar made by white, non-Hispanic men in the United States. This number is much lower for immigrant Latinas. The pay gap for Latinas persists across borders, with factors such as gender-based violence and discrimination being central contributors to this lack of economic security.
