        Equal pay was also important in 1963, when the The Equal Pay Act of 1963 was passed #fakecontroversy

        Even though she pays her female staffers 29% less than males. Try again.

        Elizabeth Warren and Mother Jones don't seem to realize that the pay gap is a meaningless average caused by life choices, not discrimination

        If you're doing the same job, you should get the same pay. Fucking ridiculous that this concept needs to be explained in the 21st century

        2) her legislation wants to protect. Without investigation, women must police employers; Warren wants to stop them being fired for doing so.

        1) Fail headline. It doesn't need explaining & Warren does not explain it. The phrase, "equal pay for equal work" refers to the legislation

        Myth. Example: Two teachers. Same school. One with B.S. One with MBA. Person with MBA is paid more. Same job. Always variables to consider.
