Equal Pay Legislation – passed and signed

Thursday, January 29th, 2009 3:43 pm

The Lilly Ledbetter Act was passed and signed.

So fuck off, Justices Alito, Roberts, Scalia, Thomas, and Kennedy.

Your utterly superficial and mean (as in, scanty, beggarly, stingy) interpretation of the Equal Pay Act managed to hurt some people but did not carry the day.

Jackasses. Also, a big fuck you to the Republicans (including George W. Bush) who held off this legislation since 2007.
