March is Women's History Month. Perfect timing to talk about Senate Bill 190. 

SB 190 was introduced in the Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday, March 2nd. This bill will allow women to recover up to two years of back pay and benefits if they were the victim of pay discrimination. This bill will also prevent employer retaliation against employees who share information about their pay with coworkers.

The Sponsor of Senate Bill 190  has said to media outlets that "Passing a strong equal pay bill will send a message that we’re committed to fairness for all Nevadans".

According to a study by  Center for American Progress Action Fund, women in Nevada make around $.85 per dollar than a male.
