Ivanka Trump supports rollback of Obama's policy to close gender pay gap
Ivanka Trump, who came into her father’s administration vowing to fight for women in the workplace, has blessed a White House plan to roll back an Obama-era policy aimed at eliminating the gender pay gap.
The initiative, which was unveiled by Barack Obama in January 2016, would have required employers to collect data on how much they pay their workers, broken down by gender, race and ethnicity.
The administration confirmed this week it would halt the implementation of the rule – with the backing of Trump, a White House adviser who has hosted numerous roundtables on women’s economic issues.
“Ultimately, while I believe the intention was good and agree that pay transparency is important, the proposed policy would not yield the intended results,” Trump said in a statement. “We look forward to continuing to work with EEOC, OMB, Congress and all relevant stakeholders on robust policies aimed at eliminating the gender wage gap.”
