Two huge victories!
DOJ institutes two new policies that DOJ GEN has been advocating for years. First, DOJ issued a travel policy that helps ensure federal employees can access necessary medical care, including abortion care. Second, OPM issued a comprehensive salary history ban that prohibits the solicitation and consideration of salary history in hiring and pay-setting decisions. We are immensely grateful to the DOJ GEN Working Groups that worked tirelessly to make these changes happen!
Two Big Wins

In addition, this message provides an update on DOJ GEN’s advocacy on abortion access and federal coverage of fertility benefits.
