SpaceX was accused in a lawsuit of discrimination for allegedly paying women and minority employees less than their male and white co-workers.

The proposed class action, which cites California’s Equal Pay Act, was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court by Ashley Foltz, who says she was hired as a base-level engineer at a salary of $92,000 while the company was offering to pay as much as $115,000 to men with the same or less experience.
