l 00. _______________ is a federal statute in the United States that was the first bill signed into law by US President Barack Obama on January 29, 2009. The act amends Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and states that the 180-day statute of limitations for filing an equal-pay lawsuit regarding pay discrimination resets with each new paycheck affected by that discriminatory action. It resets the statute of limitation’s clock with each paycheck that is reduced by a discriminatory policy.  The late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg hung a framed copy of the law on the wall in her chambers.
