While there is no direct evidence of Eisenhower's stance on equal pay, his administration was marked by a focus on civil rights and equality.

Agree

No, there are too many other variables such as education, experience, and tenure that determine a fair salary

No, the government should never determine what a private business should pay employees

Disagree

Yes, and businesses should be required to publish their salary ranges for each position

Disagree

No, the current requirements in the Equal Pay Act of 1963 are already sufficient
