You can take action today by letting your US Senator know that you support the passage of the Paycheck Fairness Act.
The Paycheck Fairness Act is comprehensive legislation that updates the Equal Pay Act of 1963. It will:
*strengthen penalties courts may impose for violations of existing equal pay laws
*prohibit retaliation against workers who inquire about or share wage information
*empower women to better negotiate for equal pay.
Approved by a bipartisan effort in House of Representatives, after the passage and signing of the historic Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Restoration Act, it is the next step toward ending wage discrimination.
