Bill overview
The Fair Pay Act of 2026 aims to address persistent wage gaps based on sex, race, and national origin in the United States. It specifically amends the Fair Labor Standards Act to prohibit employers from paying employees less than equivalent jobs due to these factors. The bill introduces stricter regulations and reporting requirements for employers, strengthens penalties for violations, and establishes a program to promote research, education, and technical assistance to combat wage discrimination. It also extends protections to Congressional and executive branch employees.
