Oregon legislative employee files federal lawsuit seeking equal pay



.


Cheyenne Ross, an analyst for the Legislative Policy and Research Office, already has a lawsuit pending in Marion County Circuit Court.

A woman who researches and develops policy for the Oregon Legislature filed a federal lawsuit on Tuesday, accusing the state of paying her less than male co-workers with similar qualifications and job duties.

The Oregon Senate had passed an Equal Pay BILL in mid-2017; but - as is par for the course - the BILL has fallen upon deaf male ears.
