House Democratic Leader Cruz Co-Sponsors Equal Pay Act

Every Floridian deserves the chance to get a good-paying job that provides economic security for them and their families.

That’s why I’m proud to be prime co-sponsor with Rep. Lori Berman of the Helen Gordon Davis Fair Pay Act to guarantee Florida’s women receive equal pay for equal work. This isn’t a controversial proposal. Preventing wage discrimination based on a person’s gender should be something that garners bipartisan agreement.

Ensuring every mother, wife, sister, aunt and daughter earns equal and fair pay not only strengthens Florida’s working families, but is the right thing do. Let’s get it done.
