Obama planning to use executive orders to continue reforms for contracting workforce

The Washington Post reports:

Lacking congressional support to raise wages or end gender pay disparities, President Obama is again imposing his policies on federal contractors, in keeping with presidents’ tradition of exerting their powers on a part of the economy they directly control.

Obama is to sign an executive order Tuesday barring federal contractors from retaliating against employees who discuss their pay with each other. The order is similar to language in a Senate bill aimed at closing a pay gap between men and women. That measure is set for a vote this week but is unlikely to pass.

Strongman Obama does his part to breed resentment in workplaces all across America.
