Message Dear Senator: I write to urge you to vote yes on the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act (H.R. 2831). The Fair Pay Act is the only bill that would correct the egregious decision the Supreme Court made in Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company. This ruling fundamentally limited employees' ability to hold their employers accountable for pay discrimination. Our generation will not stand for spending the next 30 to 40 years of our lives in workplaces where discrimination is accepted and allowed to continue. We know that over time, the effects of pay discrimination grow. When Lilly Ledbetter started work in 1979, her salary was the same as the men who started with her. By 1998, she was making as much as 40% less than men in comparable positions because she consistently received smaller raises. Everyone should be able to challenge pay discrimination whenever they find themselves facing it. I urge you now to take this first small step toward creating a more equitable workplace. Please vote for the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and reject any weakening amendments. Thank you.

Personal Message Thank you for taking action to fight for fair pay. Pay discrimination is one legacy our generation shouldn’t inherit. Our voice deserves to be heard by those shaping policies and practices that affect our work, life, and health goals.
