Mays Research Heats Up Congressional Debate
Research from Mays Business School management Professor Leonard Bierman has recently received attention in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, as those legislative bodies consider amending the pay discrimination provisions of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act of 2007 was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives in June 2007, and was considered by both the U.S. House Labor Committee and the U.S. House Judiciary Committee (civil rights subcommittee). Bierman’s research was cited in testimony before both House committees.
