U.S. Soccer: Commitment to women's soccer is 'unwavering'

U.S. Soccer has responded to a federal complaint filed by women's national team stars alleging wage discrimination.

U.S. Soccer has said that its commitment to women's soccer is "unwavering" after five stars from the women's national team filed a federal complaint Thursday morning alleging wage discrimination.

The complaint, sent to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, comes after U.S. Soccer released a budget that appeared to favor the men's team over the World Cup champion women's side. Alex Morgan, Megan Rapinoe and Hope Solo joined captains Carli Lloyd and Becky Sauerbrunn in attaching their names to the complaint on behalf of the entire team.
