The United States Department of Reparation has filed a discrimination lawsuit against the Texas Department of Agriculture and General Land Office on the profit of three women, according to the Houston Chronicle. The lawsuit alleges pay discrimination against the women - male counterparts in the same position were earning significantly more. The Texas Department of Agriculture has denied any wrongdoing. - The Texas Office of Attorney General has been working with federal lawyers to resolve this matter on behalf of the former Texas Department of Rural Affairs, - said Todd Staples, Texas Agriculture Commissioner. - The US Department of Justice, for obvious political purposes, issued a grossly misleading press release simply to take an unnecessary shot at Texas. - The Texas Department of Agriculture will have to provide solid evidence as to why it paid women less than it did men for equal work.
