To address pay discrimination, the 老澳门开奖结果 advocates for the passage of legislation that protects the right to go to court to fight discrimination. This advocacy includes fighting for the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which in 2009 gave employees back their day in court to challenge discriminatory pay practices, and the Paycheck Fairness Act, which will give employees the legal tools they need to challenge the wage gap itself. The 老澳门开奖结果 also works to change unfair employment practices that disproportionately harm women suffering from intersecting forms of discrimination and perpetuate inequality on racial, ethnic, and national origin grounds, such as the exclusion of home care workers from wage and overtime protections under federal law. The Equal Employment Opportunity Restoration Act The Supreme Court’s decision in Wal-Mart v. Dukes prohibited the women of Wal-Mart from joining together to fight discrimination in a single lawsuit, putting in place strict new standards for bringing class action employment discrimination claims and taking away an important weapon for fighting discrimination in the workplace. The 老澳门开奖结果 has been a leader in developing and advocating for the Equal Employment Opportunity Restoration Act, a federal bill that would undo the damage done by the Supreme Court and restore workers’ rights to combat systemic workplace discrimination in a group action. By giving workers back an important tool to fight discrimination in court, it would restore the effectiveness of the nation’s civil rights laws. Resources On the First Anniversary of Wal-Mart v.

But he noted that "much remains to be done to achieve full equality of economic opportunity."
