President Obama plans to sign two executive actions Tuesday — Equal Pay Day — aimed at closing the gender wage gap for federal contractors, and reinforcing equal pay as a critical issue in the midterm elections.

The two actions, the L.A. Times reports, are aimed at encouraging transparency:

One action, an executive order, will prohibit federal contractors from retaliating against employees who talk about how much money they make, according to an administration official familiar with the plans.

The other, a presidential memorandum, will require contractors to report data to the government showing the compensation they provide their employees by sex and race.

1. Clearly the actions of a freedom-hating commie dictator!

And probably only doing this to cover up BENGHAZI!!!!

Seriously, though: the President deserves our thanks on this.
