Lilly Ledbetter and Mary Kay

Uppity Woman had a wonderful and timely blog on the signing today of the Lilly Ledbetter law that extends the filing time for employment discrimination lawsuits. It's a decision I utterly agree with, and one on which our new President is something of a hypocrite as pointed out by Uppity.

The whole thing reminds me of a report on NPR yesterday about increasing numbers of women turning to independent businesses, especially Mary Kay and Avon. As the daughter of a former Mary Kay rep., and a user of both businesses, I found this interesting and timely.
