Lilly Ledbetter Quotes

Maybe 23 cents doesn’t sound like a lot to someone with a Swiss bank account, Cayman Island Investments and an IRA worth tens of millions of dollars. But Governor Romney, when we lose 23 cents every hour, every day, every paycheck, every job, over our entire lives, what we lose can’t just be measured in dollars Picture Quote #1

We sought justice because equal pay for equal work is an American value. That fight took me ten years. It took me all the way to the Supreme Court. And, in a 5-4 decision, they stood on the side of those who shortchanged my pay, my overtime, and my retirement just because I am a woman Picture Quote #1

Some of you may know my story: How for nineteen years, I worked as a manager for a tire plant in Alabama. And some of you may have lived a similar story: After nearly two decades of hard, proud work, I found out that I was making significantly less money than the men who were doing the same work as me Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing I wouldn’t do, no matter how dirty or hard Picture Quote #1

I’ll be happy if the last thing they say about me after I die is that I made a difference Picture Quote #1

Because women still earn just 77 cents for every dollar men make. Those pennies add up to real money Picture Quote #1
