Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green elaborated on his thoughts on how female athletes can address the sizable pay gap between themselves and their male counterparts.
Speaking with reporters Wednesday, Green said women are not laying out steps that they can take to change that, per NBC Sports Monte Poole: It s coming off as a complaint, because the people who can change it are just going to continue to say: Well, the revenue isn t there. If you don t bring in the revenue, we can t up your pay. They re going to keep using that, but the reality is: As true as that is, it s an excuse. Everyone says: We support women. We support women empowerment. We support women in the workplace. We do this for women. We do X for women. Blah, blah, blah.

Amid a coronavirus-disrupted session that separates lawmakers from the public, schoolteachers on Wednesday made up labor unions’ biggest show of force this year.
About 100 showed up in red jackets, shirts, blouses and ties to show solidarity against a measure educators say singles them out for bureaucratic harassment because they belong to a labor union.
The Senate Government Oversight Committee, on a party line vote, OK’d the bill (SB 1014) that would require labor organizations to demonstrate every year that they have at least 50% of a bargaining unit’s workforce as dues-paying members.
Below that, they would have to seek recertification with the state’s Public Employees Relation Commission to represent teachers in negotiations for wages, benefits, and other workplace procedures.
