LILLY LEDBETTER FAIR PAY ACT OF 2007
JULY 18, 2007.-Committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the State of
the Union and ordered to be printed
Mr. GEORGE MILLER of California, from the Committee on
Education and Labor, submitted the following
REPORT
together with
MINORITY VIEWS
[To accompany H.R. 2831]
[Including cost estimate of the Congressional Budget Office]
The Committee on Education and Labor, to whom was referred
the bill (H.R. 2831) to amend title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, the
Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990, and the Rehabilitation
Act of 1973 to clarify that a discriminatory compensation decision
or other practice that is unlawful under such Acts occurs each time
compensation is paid pursuant to the discriminatory compensation
decision or other practice, and for other purposes, having consid-
ered the same, report favorably thereon with an amendment and
recommend that the bill as amended do pass.
The amendment is as follows:
Strike all after the enacting clause and insert the following:
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2007.
SEC. 2. FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The Supreme Court in Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., No. 05-
1074 (May 29, 2007), significantly impairs statutory protections against dis-
crimination in compensation that Congress established and that have been bed-
rock principles of American law for decades. The Ledbetter decision undermines
those statutory protections by unduly restricting the time period in which vic-
tims of discrimination can challenge and recover for discriminatory compensa-
tion decisions or other practices, contrary to the intent of Congress.
