Ivanka Trump supports her father’s decision to repeal Obama-era rules monitoring the wage gap.
Despite her supposed support for equal pay, Ivanka Trump backed a recent White House decision to end an Obama administration rule that would have required businesses to monitor the salaries of employees of different genders, races, and ethnicities in an effort to prevent employment discrimination.
Ivanka said in a statement that the policy, which would have taken effect this spring, would “not yield the intended results.”
She didn’t offer any alternatives to replace the policy or explain why monitoring employees’ salaries would not help close wage gaps.
