Referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
Summary
The bill adds a new rule that employers cannot pay lower wages to workers in jobs dominated by a particular sex, race, or national origin when the work is equivalent. It applies to all employees covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act, aiming to close persistent gender and racial pay gaps. Reducing these gaps could boost earnings for millions of workers and benefit the broader economy.
