No, but it's also not quite as simple as advocates often make out, either because they truly believe it's a cut-and-dry situation or for rhetorical effect. It's a lot easier and more persuasive to uninformed bystanders if you rail against evil fatcats who are paying women 70% of the rate, versus a detailed explanation of complex sociological factors with no single villain and no easy solution. After all, the "easy solutions" have already been implemented, in the form of the Civil Rights Act (as toughened up by Lily Ledbetter). We already have laws that straight-up prohibit pay discrimination. It's the more subtle stuff that persists, much like housing discrimination is illegal and prosecutable but de facto segregation persists.
