WASHINGTON, DC As the United States surpassed 200 million administered coronavirus vaccine doses, President Joe Biden on Wednesday said businesses will be incentivized for encouraging employees and making it easier for them to get vaccinated.
The Biden administration will focus on increased outreach in the coming weeks, hoping to connect with Americans who have yet to receive a vaccine.
This also means addressing obstacles that keep them from getting vaccinated.
Subscribe Vaccines can save your own life, but they can also save your grandmother s life, your co-worker s life, the grocery store clerk or the delivery person helping you and your neighbors get through the crisis, Biden said, according to a report by The Associated Press. That s why you should get vaccinated.

RADCLIFF, Ky. A tax preparer in Radcliff, Kentucky said he’s refusing business to married couples who identify as LGBTQ. He claims he is the victim of discrimination. LGBTQ advocates, meanwhile, call his actions discriminatory.
For ten years, Kenneth Randall, the owner of Aries Tax Service in Radcliff, said he has had the same sign displayed prominently on its window. At the bottom, it says “homosexual marriage not recognized.”
The federal government has recognized marriages between same-sex couples since 2015.

U. Of Miami Asks Court To Toss Wasteful EEOC Pay Bias Suit
Law360 (April 20, 2021, 2:59 PM EDT) The University of Miami urged a Florida federal judge to toss an U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission suit accusing it of underpaying a female professor, saying a male professor s higher salary is justified because of his credentials.
The university on Monday asked U.S. District Judge Robert Scola Jr. to grant it summary judgment on the EEOC s Title VII and Equal Pay Act claims, which the agency filed on behalf of Louise Davidson-Schmich.
The EEOC s July 2019 complaint claimed that Davidson-Schmich was paid roughly $25,000 less than her colleague Gregory Koger, even though both are tenured political science professors with the same.
