Except, once again, American law. They are citing the Ted Stevens Olympic and Amateur Sports Act, which according to the news articles includes a mandate for "equitable" support and funding for women's sport compared to men's. And while everyone is naturally getting hung up on wage demands, the team's letter spells out many other grievances, including failure to support development programs for girls.
