    On the 55th anniversary of the #EqualPayAct, it’s unacceptable that women still make just 80₵ for every $1 a man earns. That's why I support the #PaycheckFairnessAct, so we can eliminate the wage gap and ensure that women earn equal pay for equal work.

        #LiesLiesLies. But a simple man like you mike cannot comprehend the fact that averages are meaningless especially on this topic....but that is not necessarily a great/simple sound bite for you liberals. Never let the facts get in the way of a false rallying cry!

        The minimum wage needs to be increased as well, @senbennetco - you might even shock your constituents and give some lip service to Unions.

        I was making poverty wages before the tax cut and am making poverty wages now. This is mostly due to all profits from business being squeezed out of workers and funneled to Execs and Shareholders and it needs to stop.

        If you have or start a 401k, you are a shareholder. If you really think that is where the profits are going, you might want to look into joining up.

        I'd like to know where this is the case all the government jobs that I know you get paid by a pay grade and years in service. So do you intend to tell private companies what They have to pay. Unions only support minimum wage increase because it triggers their wage increase

        Gender pay gap is a myth based on skewed and incomplete information. Pay differences are based on personal decisions. Type of education you choose to pursue? How much PTO/sick time do you use? Work over vacation time?

        I agree in principal. The problem is that it's impossible to define "equal work." Every person (regardless of sex) is unique in very real ways. Any attempt at enacting this would end up a socialist disaster.

        The wage gap isn't a myth. So-called "debunks" of it are narrowly focused in ways that basically define it away.https://twitter.com/emrazz/status/1003845726185586689 …

        1/ The important thing to note about the wage gap is that it doesnt manifest immediately. Second, it's not solely a 1:1 comparison, it's also demonstrated over time by potential for advancement. Here's me making fun of charlie about it https://twitter.com/emrazz/status/982757024613232646 …
