Jump to Comments
This Tuesday afternoon, the U. S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 2831, the Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2007, by a vote of 225-199. Among the two Republicans voting for the bill was Rep. Don Young (R-AK). The companion bill in the Senate, S. 1843, was introduced July 20th.
Pres. Bush has recently (July 27th) threatened to veto the Ledbetter bill if it passes both houses.
