For years, U.S. female soccer players have been legally challenging pay disparity within the sport. In 2016, 60 minutes aired the following interview with some of the players. Step 1: Watch the interview, embedded in the essay instructions. Background to the above interview: “On March 8, 2019 International Women’s Day, all 28 members of the United States Women’s National Team filed a gender discrimination lawsuit against the U.S. Soccer Federation. The federal suit accuses American soccer’s governing body of “institutionalized gender discrimination” and seeks back pay and damages. In 2019, the players and the United States Soccer Federation tentatively agreed to enter mediation after the 2019 Women’s World Cup. On July 7, the USWNT won a record fourth World Cup. In 2016, members of the team spoke with Norah O’Donnell for 60 Minutes.” Step 2: The soccer players lost at trial, as the judge ruled the women failed to prove pay disparity.

Identify the type of claim under Title VII and the required elements of that claim, as well as for the Equal Pay Act. Remember to cite to both the textbook and the recorded lecture for Chapter 8. Based solely on the above information (60 minutes video and the two articles), analyze whether you believe the women can satisfy a prima facie case under either statute. In other words, after identifying all the elements of the Title VII claim and Equal Pay Act claim you identified in response to question 1, now apply each of those elements to the case and arrive at your conclusion – have the players successfully established a prima facie case under either statute? Lastly, are there risks to an employer (not specifically U.S. Soccer but any employer), other than the threat of litigation, for engaging in pay disparity based on gender? Explain your answer.
