WASHINGTON (AP) — The Biden administration is marking Monday's 15th anniversary of a landmark federal pay equity law with new action to help close gaps in pay for federal employees and employees of federal contractors. Administration officials said this step will help limit pay discrimination and ensure compensation is based on an applicant's skills, experience and expertise. A similar proposal will offer protections to those employed by federal contractors. Administration officials said the proposal would help federal contractors recruit, diversify and retain talent, improve job satisfaction and performance and reduce turnover. In 2022, the federal government had a 5.6% pay gap compared with 16% nationwide.

[1/2] An artist's composition of the Milky Way seen with a neutrino lens (blue) is shown in this undated handout image. Scientists said on Thursday they have produced an image of the Milky Way not based on electromagnetic radiation - light - but on ghostly subatomic particles called neutrinos. Neutrinos are produced by the same sources as cosmic rays, the highest-energy particles ever observed, but differ in a key respect. They released an illustration of their findings with neutrinos from the Milky Way represented by light, with a heavy concentration at the galaxy's core. "The most likely source of neutrinos and cosmic rays in our galaxy," Taboada added, "are the remains of past supernova explosions.
