US Soccer Champions Fight for Equal Pay
美国足球冠军为同工同酬而战
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,美国女足第四次捧回世界杯冠军奖杯,并在2019年世界杯上战无不胜。虽然足球场上的战斗已经结束,但这支美国队的斗争还未结束。目前该国家队正就同工同酬问题与雇主展开了一场法律战。在去年3月的国际妇女节,该队队员向美国足协提起了诉讼。这些女球员要求获得与美国男球员同等水平的薪水。周一,在纽约市的庆祝游行中,人们高呼“美国,同工同酬!”
