We won!

Last night, Lilly and I were there when the U.S. Senate passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act - without any harmful amendments. This is exactly what we had hoped for - and what women of this country need!

The vote count was 61 to 36. Check out how your Senators voted.

And watch this video we shot with Lilly right after the vote:
