Catch up on the day’s stories: Demand for used electric vehicles, astronomical CEO pay, banning book bans

👋 Welcome to 5 Things PM! As if people weren’t already upset about how much money CEOs make… a new analysis found that the median chief executive officer in the S&P 500 earned nearly 200 times as much as the median employee. The pay gap — and the outrage — just seem to keep growing.

Here’s what else you might have missed during your busy day:

1️⃣ Used EVs: While sales of new electric vehicles are dwindling, the opposite is true for used ones. Tax breaks, price drops and a glut of cheap Tesla models are just a few of the reasons, although used EVs still cost more, on average, than used gas-powered vehicles.

2️⃣ Book bans: School districts across the country have been dealing with challenges to what can be taught about race and sexual identity. Some states — including Minnesota, Maryland and Illinois — have responded by passing laws that place restrictions on banning books from public libraries.

3️⃣ I Promise graduate: Anthony Claytor, who just earned a bachelor’s degree in criminology and justice, became the first to graduate from LeBron James’ school for at-risk students in Ohio. Claytor hopes to become a Secret Service agent.

4️⃣ Unusual case: Constance Glantz had been in hospice care and was declared dead, authorities said. Hours later, at the funeral home, something astonishing happened.

5️⃣ Cardiovascular disease: The American Heart Association expects 61% of Americans to have heart disease by 2050. The biggest culprit will be high blood pressure, along with an aging population.
