Affirmative ActionThe Cases of Woods, Ledbetter, and Stone

Waffle House is a restaurant in South and Eastern United Stated. It is the perfect place to drink waffles and coffee. In the past 10 years, Waffle House Corporation has filed a number of discriminatory lawsuits ranging from sexual harassment to racial prejudice. Waffle house is just an example, discrimination is still a problem of our country. The 1964 Civil Rights Act Chapter 7 was originally intended to eliminate discrimination at work and school, but unfortunately discrimination still exists, so we need to confirm the executive capacity.

US, 2007: Ledbetter v. Goodyear Supreme Court stipulates that women have to file a lawsuit in case of discriminatory wages. Beyond 180 days women can not sue discrimination lawsuits. This case is based on Lilly Ledbetter's career at Goodyear, but after several decades of work, the qualification as a minimum salary supervisor has declined. United States, 2014: nearly two-thirds of the minimum wage workers are women, and wage campaign campaigns are held throughout the country. To the success of the US 'Top 15' campaign, Seattle raised the minimum wage to $ 15 and several other cities and states raised the minimum wage limit - but many are still lagging behind, The federal minimum wage is still $ 7.25 per hour. Wages at Poverty Level The minimum wages of the House and the Senate are decreasing

The now famous incident of Lilly Ledbetter is very beneficial. Over the years, the employer of Ledbetter paid her without unfair discrimination. She discovered that colleagues put the notes in their lockers the only reason and revealed that her salary is thousands of dollars less than her colleagues do the same job . The Ledbetter litigation was eventually investigated after making a motion to the Equal Employment Opportunity Committee, payroll data was carefully reviewed, and the history of discriminatory compensation declarations was documented. The compensation data helped to provide a roadmap long after employee turnover and memory impairment. However, if Ledbetter employers are required to periodically submit payroll data (as required by this new proposal), discrimination will occur earlier, or at least be afraid to become respondents Urge employers to take corrective measures

The testimony of her parliament endorsed the Lily Red Better Fair Pay Law as soon as possible. See the testimony of Lilly Ledbetter at the US Senate Judiciary Committee on 28 September 2008. In her case, she did not explain the submission delay, but attempted to rely on a legal case to claim that her argument was timely. For a detailed discussion of the background, see Charles A. Sullivan "Promotion of the Dead?" Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, 84 TUL. L. 499, 507-10 (2010)
