Original Note:
This claim comes from a 2021 Census analysis. It doesn't control for equal job types. https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/visualizations/2022/demo/p60-276/figure6.pdf Explanations for the gap include shorter work hours, women working in lower paying sectors, and more common gaps in careers. https://www.nber.org/papers/w21913 Discrimination is also a factor, but is illegal under US law. https://www.eeoc.gov/equal-paycompensation-discrimination
