    "It's a right that each of us should have. Not based on our party affiliation but based on who we are and what we do."
    —Lilly Ledbetter, on the Fair Pay Act that carries her name

    When Mitt Romney's campaign was asked this morning if their candidate supports the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, their response was: "We'll get back to you on that."

    When President Obama took office, he didn't hesitate—the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was the very first bill he signed into law. As Lilly Ledbetter says, the President “understands the inequity that women have suffered.”
