Authorized in 2004, the Equal Pay Commission was organized in November 2005 (Chapter 3, Acts of Special Session of 2004). The Commission studied the extent of wage disparities between men and women, and minorities and nonminorities, in both the public and private sectors. It also considered what factors are responsible for wage disparities, how such disparities affect families and the economy, and what actions might eliminate and prevent wage disparities.

The Commission submitted its final report to the Governor, Senate President, and House Speaker on September 30, 2006. Authorization for the Commission ended September 30, 2006.
