Who’s saying ‘show me the money’...

New York City. Today, NYC’s pay transparency law is set to go into effect. Under the new law — which passed last year — companies with four or more employees will be required to post a “good faith salary range” in every job listing. Aka a minimum and maximum annual salary or hourly wages. States like Colorado, Connecticut, and Washington have already passed similar pay transparency laws to reduce pay inequities. Especially among groups that are routinely paid less, like women and people of color. Now, job seekers can say ‘bye, bye’ to struggling with an answer for ‘what would you like to be paid’ and wasting time interviewing for underpaying jobs. Getting rid of wage secrecy could also allow current employees to see if they’re being paid competitive salaries. Next up: the state bill is waiting to be signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) and other states may follow suit.

• Good faith gone bad: Not following the law would be considered “unlawful discriminatory practice.” And could result in fines of up to $250,000 after the first violation. Current employees can sue employers that violate the law related to jobs, promotions, or transfer opportunities.

What’s under review…

Affirmative action. Yesterday, SCOTUS signaled it could rule against colleges and universities considering race in their admissions process. The idea of modern affirmative action dates back to the 1960s as a way to ensure more racial equality in institutions. Since then, the Supreme Court has repeatedly upheld the initiative. But in 2014, a conservative group filed lawsuits against both Harvard and the University of North Carolina, arguing that the practices promoting the inclusion of Black and Latino students end up discriminating against white and Asian American students. Yesterday, SCOTUS heard arguments — the first peek into how they might rule. The court’s 6-3 conservative majority called the racial classifications “dangerous” and asked whether there are any “educational benefits.” Meanwhile, liberal justices referred to race considerations as a “plus factor” and as a way to look at the "full person." A ruling is expected in the summer.

…Oh and speaking of things on SCOTUS’s desk: former President Trump is asking the court to block a House committee from accessing his tax returns.

What’s going on in the Twitterverse…

A lot. Yesterday, a securities filing revealed that Elon Musk dissolved Twitter’s board of directors — in addition to other execs. The move means “Chief Twit” is now the social media platform's sole director. Next up: He’s reportedly working on plans to lay off 25% of the company (think: an estimated 7,000 employees) in the coming days. And there are also reports Musk is planning a Vine comeback. And that the blue check mark could be yours for $19.99 a month. Our weekends were…different from his.
