Lilly Ledbetter, whose fight for equal pay led to a law signed in 2009, has died, according to the production team that made a film about her life. Ledbetter, who retired in 1998, had worked for Goodyear Tire & Rubber for nearly two decades when she found out she was paid less than male co-workers. After the Supreme Court defeat, Ledbetter continued to push Congress to address wage discrepancies between women and men.
