As the only state agency to exclusively focus on the needs and concerns of women and girls of all ages and backgrounds, the Commission on the Status of Women and Girls holds a noteworthy place in the history of California.

The internet should be a space for connection and empowerment, not fear. For millions of women and girls, the internet has become a battleground of harassment and abuse. Cyberstalking, doxxing, and AI-generated image-based violence threats are real and on the rise.

Today is Native Women's Equal Pay Day! ✊ It's unacceptable: Native women earn just 58¢ for every dollar a non-Hispanic white man makes. This gap fuels hardship & undermines safety. Economic security IS safety. Let's demand equity now!

Native women working hard to provide for their families are earning just 53 cents for every dollar earned by non-Hispanic white men. For some Tribal nations, the wage gap is even wider, underscoring the deep inequity in our economy.

Today, we spotlight the reality that Native American women working full-time year-round earn just 58 cents for every dollar earned by non-Hispanic white men. This stark pay gap is unacceptable.

Costs keep rising. If the wage gap closed, it would make some of the basics more affordable for Native women. #NativeWomensEqualPay #EquityForNativeWomen @npwf @return2heartfdn

The wage disparity is the result of biases and a legacy of policies designed to oppress and erase Indigenous cultures.

Native women have always worked twice as hard to be seen half as much. Our strength builds nations, yet our labor and leadership remain undervalued. It’s time our work—and our worth—are honored in full.

Native women deserve more than survival — we deserve equity, safety, and respect. For too long, our work has been undervalued and our voices overlooked. Even with higher education and advanced degrees, we are still underpaid.
