USWNT and USSF reach partial agreement on equal pay lawsuit

The US women’s national team and US soccer federation have resolved several non-compensation issues that were part of the USWNT’s equal pay lawsuit, the team and the federation announced today. With both parties filing a proposed settlement in court today, and pending judge approval, USSF will now update policies dealing with accommodations, staffing, venues, and travel - but not on actual salaries, not just yet.

USSF president Cindy Parlow Cone said via press release:

This is an important and welcomed moment for U.S. Soccer and the Women’s National Team players. Earlier this year, I stepped into the role as President, and shortly after we hired Will Wilson as our new CEO.
