Rick Perry Insists Women Already Get Equal Pay
Rick Perry said “Women get equal pay” while appearing on CNN.
Perry may have a campaign staff full of women in high positions, as he stressed during an interview with CNN’s Alisyn Camerota on New Day this morning, but he does not believe America needs any new laws to ensure that women receive equal pay to men. “Women get equal pay,” the GOP candidate declared.
After commending Perry for having a female chief of staff on his campaign, Camerota pointed out that as governor of Texas, he hadvetoed the Texas Equal Pay Bill, which was introduced by former gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis and would have allowed women to sue employers over wage discrimination in state court as opposed to federal court.
“This was a piece of legislation that basically duplicates what’s at the federal level,” Perry said on Tuesday morning. “In the state of texas we think it’s kind of wise not to have too many laws on the books.”

I think someone once commented about Fuzzy Math ? It must be a Republican thing.

Why is he torturing himself, his family and his unpaid broke campaign staff. Perry will be the first to quit the Clown Car Two GOP presidential primary.

And it’s a race to the back door of the Republican Clown Bus. Perry is holding his own because No woman will hold it.

As I understand Rick Perry’s campaign staff, everyone is getting the same pay, nothing at all.

Except, those durned feds are tromping all over yer state’s rights, right, Rick? So Texas has no obligation to listen to them, right, Rick?
