   Section 1. Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that any relief
 and long-term recovery from the economic fallout of the COVID-19 pandem-
 ic must recognize the disproportionate burden  mothers  have  weathered.
 Women,  especially  mothers,  have faced the brunt of the economic chal-
 lenges of the pandemic due to social barriers and policy  failures  that
 have been compounded by enduring racism and gender injustices, including
 the  lack  of care infrastructure, lack of family-supportive workplaces,
 and gender and racial pay inequities.
   Women continue to face unjust gender and racial  wage  gaps,  and  are
 overrepresented  in  low-wage  jobs,  despite  their  gains in workforce
 participation.  Asian-American and Pacific Islander women,  particularly
 Southeast  Asian  and Pacific Islander women, get paid as little as $.50
 for every dollar a White man makes. Black  women  make  only  $0.63  for
 every  dollar  a  White  man makes, and as a result may lose $946,000 in
 their lifetimes.  Latina women earn $0.55 for every dollar earned  by  a
 White  man,  and  as a result may lose over $1,100,000 in wages over the
 course of a 40-year career. Native American women  are  paid  $0.60  for
 every  dollar a White man makes and are murdered at 10 times the rate of
 the national average, even though financial  independence  and  security
 can increase chances of escaping violence for these women. Women's wages
 are  key  to their families' economic security and survival.  Across the
 country, mothers are breadwinners in almost half of families with  chil-
 dren  under 18, even though mothers face a greater pay gap than women as
 a whole. Even prior to the pandemic,  working  mothers  faced  continued
