Women rally for an equal pay bill in front of Congress.
Should Congress mandate 'equal pay' for women?
Equal pay for equal work is the feminist catch phrase in the U.S. Senate this week. That’s because lawmakers are scheduled to take on a measure arising out of the case of Lilly Ledbetter, an Alabama woman who lost a wage discrimination suit at the Supreme Court last year.
Under a measure sponsored by Senator Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., the court’s ruling that Ms. Ledbetter failed to file a timely challenge to pay practices at a Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co. plant in Gadsden would effectively be overturned, though Ms. Ledbetter would not benefit directly.Ms. Ledbetter, who earned thousands of dollars less than male colleagues doing similar supervisory work, was found by the court to have failed to make her claim within 180 days of the company’s pay policy decision. The sponsors of the bill want to clear up that requirement and straighten out what they see as a flawed ruling.
Should Congress force employers to pay women the same wage as men? Or are there reasons other than outright discrimination why women earn less than men on average?

General Stats v. Individual Cases
Submitted on April 22nd, 2008 by JobbaBoyI completely understand that the statistics are overblown because, as Ms. Peck points out, different jobs are dominated by different genders, and so it should be no surprise that a cop and a social worker make different amounts of money.
In the Ledbetter case, however, you see an example of a man and a woman doing the exact same (or at least comparable) work, and the compensation is to the woman's detriment. As anyone with even a cursory knowledge of basic etiquette knows, you don't go around asking other people how much money they make, so it could be a very long time before the discrepancies are discovered. I absolutely believe that Congress should step in and amend the rules to allow for such discrimination cases to be heard in court.
