That's a Lot of Money!

The gender wage gap puts women at a career-long disadvantage. In 2011, a typical 25-year-old woman working full-time all year earned $5,000 less than a typical man of the same age. In just 10 years, her cumulative lost wages will reach $34,000. If that earnings gap is not corrected by the age of 65, she will have lost $431,000 over her working lifetime.

This substantial gap is more than a statistic -- it has real life consequences for women and their families. That's why President Obama supports the Paycheck Fairness Act, which Congress puts to a vote today.

Find out more about the gap, and President Obama's steps to secure equal pay. [ http://www.whitehouse.gov/equal-pay?utm_source=060512&utm_medium=topper&utm_campaign=daily ]
