WASHINGON: -- Former Republican congressman Pete Hoekstra, who is now running to unseat Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), weighed in on the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act on Thursday, saying the law was a "nuisance" that shouldn't be in place ... The law -- which was heavily opposed by Republicans -- provides women with more legal channels through which to pursue equal pay for equal work.
Conservatives were against letting women vote (they still are, actually) and against the ERA. That they want to let women work, albeit for less pay, is progress we suppose.
