It is the first bill Mr. Obama has signed into law, and effectively overturns the court's ruling.

Does the law officaly outlaw unfair pay....If so how does someone find this out legally? I heard once that if you ask, talk to, or find out another employee's pay that it is illegal and you can be fired...
