Assessments
The promise was framed as supporting equal pay, not necessarily enacting a specific equal-pay law. As a sitting U.S. Representative, Strickland cosponsored H. Con. Res. 21 in the 119th Congress recognizing equal pay and wage disparities between men and women. That is a concrete federal legislative action directly aligned with the promised support, credited during the same term.
