Answer: Equal Pay Act

Explanation:

The Equal Pay Act was signed into law by President Kennedy in 1963 in response to a wage gap between men and women that had began to escalate out of control.

In 1960 it was estimated that women working the same jobs as men earned less than two-thirds of what their male counterparts earned and pressure from various organizations finally enabled the Act to pass through Congress.

While it is illegal to pay women less than men for similar jobs, the trend continued but has seen massive improvements as a result of the Act and will continue to.

How does John Peter Zenger trial connect to freedom of the press?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

In the United States of America, it created the law that for a statement to be slander, it must be false. It must be issued with malice aforethought. It made political correctness contrary to the law. It made the current slander laws of England contrary to those of The United States and unenforceable in The United States. Therefore, when someone from some third world country feels insulted because of what an American wrote about the mistreatment of women in his nation and wins a lawsuit for a million dollars in a British court, it will not be enforced in The United States.
