The U.S. women's soccer team has signed a historic equal pay agreement. Here's how it happened

“Equal pay! Equal pay!”

The agreements also require U.S. Soccer to provide an equal number of charter flights to both teams, and an equal quality of venues and field playing surfaces to the men’s and women’s teams. The timing worked out. Cone, a woman with deep ties to the U.S. team, was now in charge, and the women’s CBA was expiring at the end of 2021. The men’s side was still seeking a new agreement: it had expired at the end of 2018. These circumstances gave all parties incentive to sit down together last fall. “For me, the turning point was when we actually got everyone in the same room together,” says Cone.

Was Cones POV really….we should thank the men for their sacrifice ? 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Great Article. 🤡 Nailed It. equalpay

Equal pay will probably mean less pay… lul

I’m 100% for equal pay for equal work but: Men soccer (for whatever reason) is more popular & generates significantly more revenue. Women soccer makes less in revenues, but expect equal pay They took men prize money and distributed it to the women. interesting approach…

From the days of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of the heavens is the goal toward which men press, and those pressing forward are seizing it. Matthew 11:12

If I remember correctly they had the option to take the same contract as the men years ago but go greedy and it bit them in the ass.

This is a nothing burger...lol. Virtually no one cares.

The mens team must be happy since they don't make it to the world cup and now get to split the women teams winnings.
