WASHINGTON, D.C. – Ranking Member Martin Heinrich (D-NM) released a fact sheet on key information regarding the gender wage gap ahead of Equal Pay Day on April 4, 2017, including state-by-state numbers for the wage gap. The analysis found that women earn less than men in all but four of the 120 occupations reviewed.

The fact sheet, “#RealNews: Women Still Earn Less than Men,” also finds that a woman working earns $10,500 less per year than a man based on individual earnings, making only 80 percent of what a man earns on average. The disparity can add up to nearly half a million dollars over a career.

Women of color face larger wage gaps. Compared to white men, African-American women, on average, are paid 62 cents on the dollar and Latinas are paid 54 cents on the dollar.
