Disagree

No, this is irrelevant because the gender wage gap is a myth

Disagree

No

Abbott has not publicly stated that he believes employers should not be required to pay men and women the same salary for the same job. His stance on free market principles might suggest some agreement, but outright disagreement with equal pay is not in line with his public statements.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and businesses should be required to publish their salary ranges for each position

Abbott has not advocated for businesses to be required to publish their salary ranges for each position. This would represent a significant increase in government regulation of private businesses, which is generally not in line with his political philosophy.
