State Senator Celina Villanueva (D-Chicago) is looking to raise awareness of pay disparities across the country. Villanueva is recognizing today, March 25, 2025, as Equal Pay Day in Illinois.
A new resolution in the State Senate highlights the disparities women and other marginalized groups face. Speaking about the measure, Villanueva highlighted the dates people in these groups would have to work until, on top of the previous year, to earn the same amount as their male counterparts in just the previous year.
The State Senate adopted Resolution 158 last Thursday. The American Association of University Women led the effort to write the resolution. More details on the measure can be found on the Illinois General Assembly’s website, www.ilga.gov.
