COVID-19/NATIVE AMERICANS/WOMEN: “Earning just $0.57 on the dollar that an average white man makes, Native women lose over $1 million over the course of their lifetime. That’s unacceptable.
We also know that the COVID-19 pandemic, worsened due to President Trump’s failure to act, is threatening to wipe out decades of economic progress for women and will be felt for years to come. With many women serving as sole or primary breadwinners, this cannot go on for working families. We must do something to improve women’s economic security in America, and this November, we can.”
