INVESTING IN THE FEMINIST ECONOMY In a feminist economy, we recognize, value, and center reproductive labor as low-carbon, community-generating, life-affirming, and skilled work that is necessary for the well-being of everyone and to sustain human society and nature itself. Feminist economy focuses on four principles to re-envision our world: ensuring bodily autonomy and self-determination as it relates to feminized, transgender, and gender non-conforming people; socializing reproductive labor; being in right relationship with people globally; and being in right relationship with nature and Mother Earth.19
Protect
Strengthen Worker Rights and Protections: Strengthen labor laws that protect “worker rights to organize� in critical frontline industries, particularly essential workers in health, caregiving, food production, and the service economy, most of whom are Asian and Pacific Islander, Black, Latinx, and Indigenous women. This includes policy tools such as the Essential Workers Bill of Rights.
