House passes pay equity bill

[JSojourner]

I think this is a good piece of legislation.  It is certainly an area where government has the right to step in and demand equal pay for women.

The argument that government shouldn't intrude here is absolutely ridiculous... but I guess there were those against the civil rights act and may we never forget the negative reaction to the ERA.

Government should not intrude unless two men are having sex or a woman is seeking an abortion.

Aye (D) -- normal
