The Lily Ledbetter Act passed!! Woohoo!!! :)

The Senate has easily passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act by a vote of 61-36. This act ensures equal pay for women working the same jobs as men. This could be the first bill President Obama signs into law.

Repubs say this will just lead to more lawsuits. Hell yeah! Women have been fighting and fighting and fighting...it's about time we were recognized in the workplace.
