This paper argues that the California legislature should implement voter-approved Proposition 209, the California Civil Rights Initiative (CCRI), which ended race and gender-based preference programs in public employment, contracting, and education. CCRI. CCRI amends California's constitution and specifically states that California "shall not discriminate against, or grant preferential treatment to, any individual or group on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin in the operation of public employment, public education, or public contracting." This paper denies the gender wage gap by utilizing NLSY data which shows that childless women aged 27-33 years earn 98 cents to a man's dollar. |
