Gender discrimination is bad. Paying women less than men, even when they do the same job just as well, is wrong. If you believe this to be true, why are you letting Elizabeth Warren get away with it?

Brent Scher, Washington Free Beacon:

The gender pay gap in Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D., Mass.) is nearly 10 percent wider than the national average, meaning women in the Massachusetts Democrat’s office will have to wait longer than most women across the country to recognize Equal Pay Day…

Women working for Warren were paid just 71 cents for every dollar paid to men during the 2016 fiscal year…

The median annual earnings for women staffers, $52,750, was more than $20,000 less than the median annual earnings for men, $73,750…

As the senator herself might say: Heap big wage gap!

White woman speak with forked tongue:

It certainly is, thanks to bosses like Senator Warren. If she won’t even pay her own female employees fairly, why should anybody else listen to her whining?

Oh wait. She’s a woman, so it’s sexist to criticize her for being a hypocrite. Not to mention racist, considering her Native American heritage. Never mind.
