Today is Black Women's Equal Pay Day, the day to which a Black woman has to work into 2022 -- in addition to all of 2021 -- to earn the same pay that a non-Hispanic white man earned the previous year.

number is only slightly higher in Colorado. Lauren Young Casteel, CEO of The Women’s Foundation of Colorado, shares her insights and an update on the status of a new law aimed at closing the gender pay gap in Colorado.
