: The Common ScoldOBAMA SIGNS GENDER PAY BILL
A step in the right direction: President Obama has signed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, re gender pay, the first piece of legislation he has signed as president. AP story here, from MS/NBC. (It includes a video of Obama talking about equal pay during his campaign)
See Mon's rant in November LTN ("Just Equal") about this issue within the legal industry here.
I continue my challenge to every law firm managing partner, every vendor CEO and every law dept. GC to check their own shops and fix the dismal inequities within our profession. It's a disgrace that we are in such sorry shape, when we should stand tall and be a leader in this obvious and important cause.
