The legislation would strengthen federal law to make it illegal for employers to pay workers different wages based on their sex, race, or national origin, and would give workers better tools to challenge unfair pay practices. This would affect all private employers and could help close wage gaps that currently exist between different groups of workers. The bill is currently under review by the House Committee on Education and Workforce.
