“But Boston is a city Run by Democrats and has been for decades.”
I conclude after reading your post that the muckety mucks in Boston don’t care that women earn less and don’t see it as a big issue.
Of course Boston Dem pols care and see it as a big issue — for demagoguery!
If the muckity mucks don’t care apparently the voters don’t care either.
They just like to complain about it.
