Title: Statement by the President on the Paycheck Fairness Act

Statement by the President on the Paycheck Fairness Act

I am deeply disappointed that a minority of Senators have prevented the Paycheck Fairness Act from finally being brought up for a debate and receiving a vote.  This bill passed in the House almost two years ago; today, it had 58 votes to move forward, the support of the majority of Senate, and the support of the majority of Americans.  As we emerge from one of the worst recessions in history, this bill would ensure that American women and their families aren’t bringing home smaller paychecks because of discrimination.  It also helps businesses that pay equal wages as they struggle to compete against discriminatory competition.  But a partisan minority of Senators blocked this commonsense law.  Despite today’s vote, my Administration will continue to fight for a woman’s right to equal pay for equal work.

Anti-Employer, Pro-Trial Lawyer Legislation Fails in Senate (Freedom 1-0 versus Tyranny)

Failing a cloture vote today in the Senate, the Paycheck Fairness Act (S.3772) was designed to close a purported “pay gap” between male and female workers. The Paycheck Fairness act looked to achieve this goal by facilitating litigation and levying small businesses with new paperwork—two policies which discourage hiring new workers.

“The misleadingly named Paycheck Fairness Act was a solution for a non-existent problem,” said Christopher Prandoni, Executive Director of the Alliance for Worker Freedom. “While proponents of this bill claim women make twenty percent less than men, when hours of work, overtime, education, and experience are accounted for, the difference between men and women’s wages is about five cents on the dollar...”
