Comparable Worth Is Not Pay Equity

(Archived document, may contain errors) 110 July 31, 1984 COMPARABLE WORTH IS NOT PAY EQUITY INTRODUCTION The House of Representatives apparently wants to put the federal government back into the business of wage controls-- permanently. This is the unmistakable message of the comparable worth bill, H.R.5680, passed by the House on June 20 by a stag- gering 413 to 6 majority. Though the bill's proposals are modest and designed to seem harmless, they are an important step toward increasing federal control of the U.S. economy.
