President Trump speaks to the National Association of Attorneys General on March 4, 2019, at the White House. By Samantha Schmidt Samantha Schmidt Reporter covering gender and family issues Email Bio Follow March 5 at 3:42 PM A federal judge on Monday ordered the Trump administration to reinstate an Obama-era rule that required companies to report pay data by race and gender, a move advocates say will help shrink the wage gap.
“This is a really important victory for equal pay and for holding the administration accountable under the law," said Maya Raghu, senior counsel and director of workplace equality at the National Women’s Law Center, one of the groups that sued the Trump administration over its move to block the wage data rule.
The rule also created an incentive for an employer to “look under the hood” and evaluate their own pay practices, Yang said. The EEOC planned to then publish the aggregate data publicly, allowing employers, advocates and academics to benchmark pay inequities in the workforce, said Yang, who is now a strategic partner at Working Ideal and a fellow at the Urban Institute.
Rao, who is now President Trump’s nominee to replace Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, wrote in the memo that “aspects of the revised collection of information lack practical utility, are unnecessarily burdensome, and do not adequately address privacy and confidentiality issues.”
“The government’s position rests on hyper-technical formatting changes that have no real consequences for employers,” Chutkan wrote. “While there may be instances when formatting changes could be burdensome, that is not the case here.”
I will be very interested to read the findings. If they release them to the public that is.
Whoa! The game is changing... slowly but surely.
Good...
Does it include skill levels, years or experience? Nope.
Great article. did not know. thank u for that
That will be appealled. There’s no way that additional burden on American business will pass by the Supreme Court. The cost is well beyond the benefit.
Oh great. More admin. And who pays for that? Customers, ultimately
Yes!
About time.
Another request for appeal coming up!
How far away is my pay increase? Aint I a woman?
Timcast just did a breakdown of this. It's opposite of what the media is reporting.
Too bad the report won't show how hard they worked. That's what matters.
So women are going to shovel snow? Work on farms picking lettuce?
The radical left? 😐
Victory for equal pay for unequal work.
The myth Rolls on...
Yeah because google doesnt pay men enough
Not by job title?

Judge orders Trump administration to act on young Central American refugees left in limboA federal judge in San Francisco ordered the Trump administration to resume processing the applications of more than 2,700 young Central Americans and family members who had been left in limbo.

Where the hell does the constitution say a judge who was never elected can boss around the President who was actually elected and does actually have constitutional powers? he should do,,,,exactly as BHO Did,,,,,,,,,,,,Disregard !
