When I found out that my male predecessor make $28k more than I did I complained but they refused to close the differential. Would you complain about a gender pay gap after being hired?

From what you've posted, there's no indication that the salary difference was because of gender. There are a lot of factors that can influence someone's salary. And for all we know, someone realized they were paying someone too much to fill that position. It's that's case, getting more compensation would seem to be a lost cause.

I have in the past but they don't really do anything about it, it seems like. I have run into that same thing at several places that I have worked. It doesn't seem like it will ever truly change.

Yea with a lawsuit lol! You can’t demand that because salary is private information that cannot be shared by an employer. Unless you have solid proof in writing you can’t do anything about it. That’s simply hearsay

the salary is public

That's crap. and a tough nut to deal with, but as the market is so tight, may be best to stick with it for now; look again, if you want to, but you may have to just stay steady for now, given their resistance. Meanwhile, impress the hell out of them; that way they may take more notice, and if not, you gain more respect for endorsements. And ask for them for your LinkedIn record.
