It could very well be that one does not realize he/she has been underpaid until this short period has expired. This is just another way to give corporate America the upper hand in the treatment of its employees. The American worker has lost a staggering number of rights in our very recent history, and some, if not all of them, should be restored. Contrary to popular belief, we should not be canon fodder to help the corporate elite enhance their already fat wallets.... 17126@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 16 Jul 2007 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_2831.html#17132 Re: Lucas Murdock comment re: short time limit not realizing what rights. I was severly burned at work in 1978 by a faulty hot water spigot. Boiling water spewed all over my ankle and hand, left huge scar on my ankle. I was in alot of pain for months, I had such a good work ethic I went back to work even tho I was in a lot of pain. I did not realize as I was young, 19 years old, I should have filed a suit for the pain and scarring this malfunction of equipment caused me. When someone told me I should have received damages, I tried to file years later only to be told the time limit had expired. I don't believe in some "frivolous" suits people file, but I feel mine was legit. Also, this was M and M Marrs company.... 17132@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 16 Jul 2007 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/history/110_HR_2831.html?rev=2467 <p>H.R. 2831 would 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.</p> <h2 id="toc40"> Detailed Summary </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to provide a detailed summary of the bill!)</p> <!--Leave in the 'summary' tags if you want the latest summary from the Congressional Research Service automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --> <h2 id="toc41"> Status of the Legislation </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to update the status of the bill!)</p> <!-- Leave in the 'status' tags if you want the latest reported status from THOMAS automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --> <h2 id="toc42"> Points in Favor </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to show why the bill should pass!)<br /> <!-- First editor: Go ahead and take out the sentence in parentheses, and this notice! --> </p> <h2 id="toc43"> Points Against </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to show why the bill should not pass!)<br /> <!-- First editor: Go ahead and take out the sentence in parentheses, and this notice! --> </p> 2467@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 28 Jun 2007 00:00:00 EDT http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/history/110_HR_2831.html?rev=2468 <p>H.R. 2831 would 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.</p> <h2 id="toc44"> Detailed Summary </h2> <p>(Log in to edit the wiki and be the first to provide a detailed summary of the bill!)</p> <!--Leave in the 'summary' tags if you want the latest summary from the Congressional Research Service automatically to replace the text between the tags once it becomes available. --> <h2 id="toc45"> Status of the Legislation </h2> <p>Latest Major Action: 6/27/2007: House committee/subcommittee actions.
