Protest Macy’s with N.O.W

November 28, 2013 · Posted in Newsletters · Comments Off 

Dear Visitor,

GetEQUAL Texas will stand with Texas women and asks you to support the National Organization of Women in their protest of Macy's over EQUAL pay for women in Texas during this, so called, "Black Friday".

Macy's among other lobbyist groups urged Rick Perry to veto House Bill 950 this past June, which he did. This bill would have empowered Texas women to make actionable claims in the district court's, increasing access to justice for women who face discrimination.
 
We urge you to stand with us as we stand with the women of Texas.

N.O.W. to protest Macy’s over Equal Pay in Texas

 

Who: San Antonio Area National Organization for Women

 

What: National Organization for Women will protest Macy for lobbying against equal pay for equal work in Texas.

When: Friday November 29, 2013 at 8:30 a.m.

 

Where: Macy’s at North Star Mall – 7400 San Pedro Ave. #200, San Antonio, TX 78216

 

Women still make 77 cents on the dollar to a man–a number that drops to 62 cents on the dollar for African American women. More than 40% of families currently have women as the primary breadwinner, which means this issue affects entire families. San Antonio Area NOW is calling for a boycott of the retailer and staging a protest on Black Friday.

                                                                                                                                                         

For more information about the event and the location, please contact Joyce Townsend at or. For more information on the National Organization for Women, please visit NOW.org.
