The U.S. Soccer Federation (USSF) and the US women’s national team players association (USWNTPA) and the United States National Soccer Team Players Association (USNSTPA) have signed an equal pay deal. 

It will see equal pay for male and female players for games and World Cup prize money.

“US Soccer and the USWNT and USMNT players have reset their relationship with these new agreements and are leading us forward to an incredibly exciting new phase of mutual growth and collaboration as we continue our mission to become the preeminent sport in the United States.”

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.
