Equal Pay Bill Gaining Ground Says Sylvia Porter
Sylvia Porter reports that after 19 years a national equal pay law may pass, with H R 6060 and S 1409 gaining bipartisan support. The bill would prohibit wage discrimination by sex for equal work and be enforced by the Labor Department one year after passage. It covers women already protected by the Fair Labor Standards Act, complementing existing state laws and spurring wage equality in contracts and employer practice.
