Disagree

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

While Clinton acknowledges that education, experience, and tenure are important factors in determining salary, she has also emphasized that these factors should not result in gender-based wage disparities.

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