The Line: Equal Pay In New Mexico

April 7, 2017 – Equal Pay Day was marked in communities across the country this week. Here in New Mexico, the city of Albuquerque has received attention in recent years for a policy that rewards potential contractors that can prove they pay men and women equally for the same work. Should more be done to close the pay gap between men and women in New Mexico? Host Gene Grant and this week’s Line opinion panelists discuss equal pay.

Line Panelists:
Janice Arnold-Jones, former state representative
Tom Garrity, The Garrity Group PR
Laura Sanchez-Rivét, attorney at Cuddy & McCarthy, LLP
Antoinette Sedillo López, executive director of Enlace Comunitario
