WASHINGTON― On Equal Pay Day on Tuesday, the Washington Free Beacon misleadingly accused Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) The Free Beacon claimed women earned 71 cents for every dollar men earned in Warren’s office, based on incomplete salary data from fiscal year 2016. The Free Beacon also claimed Warren is only paying one woman more than $100,000, compared to five men. But even considering those staff changes, the overall pay for the office favors women, and Warren has always paid women as much as men with the same job titles. CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story referred to the mean salaries for men and women in Warren’s office.
