    I believe it was the House that passed a bill last week that will undo the recent Supreme Court ruling regarding the right to sue in cases of pay discrmination. Se:

    House Democrats Prepare Ledbetter Bill to Overturn Supreme Court on Equal Pay for Women - Bonnie Erbe (usnews.com)

    Not sure when the senate will pick this up, but it will probably be shortly afer O 's inauguration -- W would surely veto it if it were to pass while he's still in office.
