Hispanic women face wage gap in U.S.
Legal status, education level and language barrier can impact pay
Mariela Serrato is feeling the impact of the chilled economy. She's been out of work for a couple of months since she was laid off from her job packing candy, earning $10.50 an hour - roughly $420 a week. Her family is surviving off savings and her husband's $14-an-hour construction job. For now, the Mexico native is staying at home, caring for her two children, ages 8 and 10, and searching for work - hoping to make at least $10 an hour, "but you know how the economy is," she said grimly.
