On June 9, 2023, the Center for American Progress submitted a comment letter to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) on proposed revisions to the criteria for making salary determinations based on salary history to advance pay equity in the general schedule pay system, prevailing rate systems, administrative appeals judge pay system, and administrative law judge pay system. The comments provide feedback on clarifying the language regarding inquiry and discussion of salary history during the hiring process; updating recent studies and using medians when measuring the impact of a salary history ban on pay equity; improving the information considered for positions with high occupational segregation; and explaining how banning or limiting reliance on salary history advances equity.
