Recognizing the significance of equal pay and the pay disparity between disabled women and both disabled and nondisabled men.

H.Res. 829 is a non-binding resolution introduced by Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick that recognizes the significance of equal pay and acknowledges the pay disparities between disabled women and both disabled and nondisabled men. As a non-binding resolution, this measure does not have the force of law and does not require presidential signature. Instead, it serves as a statement of congressional recognition regarding wage inequality issues affecting disabled women in the workforce.

If passed, this resolution would formally acknowledge the pay gap experienced by disabled women but would not directly mandate changes to wages or employment practices. The practical impact would be primarily symbolic, potentially drawing attention to wage disparities and supporting advocacy efforts around equal pay for disabled workers. The bill is currently under committee consideration and has not yet been voted on by the full House.
