Today is Disabled Women’s Equal Pay Day– a stark reminder that disabled women make just 56 cents for every dollar white, non-disabled men make due to a long history of ableism, institutionalization, and workplace discrimination. Disabled women of color face some of the largest pay gaps due to the compounding nature of sexism, racism, and...| 9to5
We have kicked off our Community Justice Fellowship Program, with our first session being held at the end of September! 🎉 We have spent many months preparing for this innovative program, and we could not welcome a better group of people for this year’s fellowship. 7 wonderful fellows will be embarking on this journey...| 9to5
Wisconsin legislators abandoned hard-working women and nonbinary parents in Wisconsin when they refused to fund a robust child care program in the state. But we’re not giving up this fight. | 9to5
9to5’s work is community-centered, and we know that immigrants are a central part of our schools, our neighborhoods, and our families. People in power are breaking up families and communities to spread fear and sow division based on race, background, and gender while they hand billionaires and corporations the wealth our work creates. Our communities are more vibrant, more beautiful, and more powerful with everyone in it. Together, 9to5 members have worked to ensure affordable and safe hous...| 9to5
Governor Polis made a choice. He chose ICE. He chose to betray immigrant families, working people, and the very laws he once claimed to...| 9to5
Hi friend, The systems we live and work under were not built to support working women and nonbinary people of color. They were designed to exploit us. To keep power and wealth in the hands of a privileged few. From the very beginning, this country’s economic foundation was built on stolen land, stolen labor,...| 9to5
September 12, 2025 9to5 is outraged by the racist and terroristic ICE raids that occurred at the Hyundai plant in Ellabell, Georgia, on September 4th. Everyone should have the right to feel safe at work, but in our communities, our state, and across the country, hard-working people are being detained, often illegally, on the job…| 9to5
Hi Friend, We know many of you are busy sending your kids back to school. As tariffs are set to hit (again), we’re all noticing prices are rising, making backpacks and pencils more expensive, while historic cuts in public education funding add to our burden. Through these changes, one thing remains true: low-income…| 9to5
Hi Friend, This month, Congress dealt a devastating blow to women, people of color, people experiencing poverty, and people with disabilities, and handed a big check to billionaires. That new big, ugly budget bill guts access to healthcare and necessities like food that we rely on to survive. On top of that, the administration...| 9to5
In Colorado’s mobile home parks, and in many across the country, it’s not uncommon to have unsafe water. Water that is not safe to drink, cook with, give to pets, or even bathe in, yet it runs through our taps. The Safe Drinking Water Act was passed more than 50 years ago but mobile homeowners often aren’t protected. Their water often passes through systems owned by mobile home parks which can lead to contamination and isn’t regulated. In fact, nearly 70% of mobile home parks running ...| 9to5
Governor Evers titled the 2025-27 state budget the “Year of the Kid,” promising investments that would support Wisconsin’s future generations like affordable child care and living wages for providers, K-12 school funding, and higher education. Despite the testimony of 9to5 members, other state organizations, parents, child care providers, and nearly 1000 Wisconsinites to the Joint...| 9to5
Hi Friend, This month, as the MAGA regime tried to spread fear and chaos in our communities, millions of Americans responded by taking to the streets in cities large and small. They echoed the same message: we will stand together, shoulder to shoulder, to defend our rights, our country, and our people. Refusing to bow to authoritarianism, brutality, and billionaires, we are once again reminded that organizing is the answer. Working Women Stand in Solidarity with the People of Los Angeles and ...| 9to5
9to5 stands with the community—the hard-working neighbors, parents, friends, and allies—who are at the center of the fight against authoritarianism in this country. As the regime sows fear and chaos and prevents us from exercising our right to protest, we know we must join in our collective power through the kind of resistance we know works—organizing. Americans across races, backgrounds, and parties value our freedoms. But the current ruling regime of the bullies for the billionaires h...| 9to5
