Today, President Obama signed into law a piece of legislation that would allow workers---not just women---to sue if they are not receiving equal pay for their job as others in the same position within their company. Here's the link if you want to read the story:
While I like that this probably means women will not be shortchanged as much now that they have the right to demand equal pay, I do wish that we didn't have to sue to get it. My dream is to someday see women making the same amount of money as their male counterparts, without the threat of a lawsuit to get it. But for now, I guess this will have to suffice.
