Description:
Rest in power to Lilly Ledbetter, whose discovery that she earned less than her male counterparts after working 19 years at a Gadsden Goodyear plant, and led to federal legislation, died Oct. 13 at age 86. The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was the first bill then-President Barack Obama signed into law in 2009. Early in October 2024, Ledbetter was awarded the Future is Female Lifetime Achievement Award by Advertising Week.
