US Soccer Champions Fight for Equal Pay
美國足球冠軍為同工同酬而戰
The US women’s soccer team took home its fourth World Cup trophy last weekend, and was undefeated in the 2019 tournament. Though the battles on the soccer fields are over, the US team is not done fighting. The national team is currently in a legal battle with its employer over equal pay. Members of the US team filed a lawsuit against the US Soccer Federation on International Women’s Day last March. The women are demanding to be paid the same amount as their American male counterparts. In a celebratory parade in New York City on Monday, people chanted “USA. Equal Pay!”
上周末,美國女足第四次捧回世界杯冠軍獎杯,并在2019年世界杯上戰無不勝。雖然足球場上的戰斗已經結束,但這支美國隊的斗爭還未結束。目前該國家隊正就同工同酬問題與雇主展開了一場法律戰。在去年3月的國際婦女節,該隊隊員向美國足協提起了訴訟。這些女球員要求獲得與美國男球員同等水平的薪水。周一,在紐約市的慶祝游行中,人們高呼“美國,同工同酬!”
