Lilly ledbetter was a manager at a goodyear plant. she sued after learning that she, the only female manager was paid less than all the male managers, even a man she trained. the case went all the way to the supreme court where the majority decision was in goodyear’s favor – not because they had not discriminated, but because the court ruled that the existing law required she would have to have filed her case within 180 days of being hired (even if she did not know her pay was less until much later when someone leaked this information to her). supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg, who is renowned for her legacy on striking down laws that discriminate against women, wrote a scathing dissent in which she called for congress to change the law because, she argued, the court overlooked the way pay disparities often occur, in a way to hide the discrimination. because of justice ginsburg’s ability to clearly argue her point of view, congress changed the law and the lilly ledbetter fair pay act of 2009 was created to ensure equal pay regardless of gender. construct a one-paragraph reasoned and persuasive argument stating if you believe that there should be a law ensuring pay is equitable regardless of gender and what reasoning you would use to convince another person of your view.
