Change Is In The Air

Yesterday the US House of Representatives passed two very important fair pay bills - the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and the Paycheck Fairness Act. Both bills provide women with critical tools to challenge pay discrimination. If you are not familiar with Lilly Ledbetter and her case, check out the details here. It's a heartbreaking tale! And Ms. Ledbetter is an amazing American hero.

In order for President Obama to sign these bills into law, the Senate needs to act. Please contact your Senator and urge them to move forward fast and have legislation waiting for our new President to sign.

Yeah, sisters. Better times are coming!!
