Have your senators signed on to this bill? If so, they deserve our thanks. If not, it is time to call or write them to encourage them to sign on. If they resist, try to find out why and deal with their concerns. They all have females close to them who need the effects this act offers us.

I will be graduating college in May and expect to earn the same at my male counterparts. Hopefully the Paycheck Fairness Act will pass and will be signed into law to better guarantee that this won’t happen to me.
