Equal Pay for Women. Still not Equal.
In this episode of the Bill Press Pod, Bill Press speaks with Gwen Young, the CEO of the Women Business Collaborative, about the significance of Lilly Ledbetter's fight for equal pay and the subsequent legislation that followed. They discuss the 2009 Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, its impact on raising awareness about pay equity, and how companies and states have responded to the legislation. They also explore the broader issues of gender equity in various fields, including technology, STEM, and the military. The conversation extends to the importance of women in leadership roles and the barriers that still exist for women, especially women of color. Gwen Young emphasizes the collaborative efforts required to achieve equal position, pay, and power for women in the business world.
