        Women have deserved equal pay for a long time and in some cases deserve more in pay.

        Next ban online apps asking about social security numbers. That will help against identity theft from bogus & unsecured job sites.

        Seen it in Texas. Of course you have no way of knowing where an online app is hosted. But can't skip or submit w/o it.

        So unbelievably stupid. There's a lot of precedent for similar rules that had terrible repercussions because of asymmetrical info.

        look up banning of employers looking at credit scores in the name of promoting diversity. Terrible results.

        That author works for a conservative think tank. Shocked he'd weigh in on that side.

        did you read it? It was narrowly focused on racial hiring and drew no other conclusions. Fuck tribalism
