Murray, DeLauro Introduce the Paycheck Fairness Act

Statement

"Women across our country are still being paid less than their male counterparts, still being shortchanged, and it's time we finally take action to close the wage gap," said Senator Murray. "When we talk about the wage gap, we are ultimately talking about huge, life-changing amounts of pay that women are being cheated out of. Women are paying the price of inaction, and we have to put a stop to sexist pay practices--for good. That's why I'm proud to reintroduce the Paycheck Fairness Act with Congresswoman DeLauro and every Democrat in the Senate today--to update our laws and take common sense steps to combat pay discrimination."
