WASHINGTON - The House 1/6 committee heard chilling, tearful testimony Tuesday that Donald Trump's relentless pressure to overturn the 2020 presidential election provoked widespread threats to the "backbone of our democracy"- election workers and local officials who fended off the defeated president's demands despite personal risks. The panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack at the U.S. Capitol focused on Trump's efforts to undo Joe Biden's victory in a most local way - by repeatedly...
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison vowed Tuesday to legally defend travelers who come here to get an abortion and face prosecution in their own states for doing so. If the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, Minnesota will be prepared to serve and defend an influx of abortion patients who come from states that outlaw the procedure, Ellison said during a news conference at the State Capitol. Ellison said he will reject extradition requests and fight other states in court if...
Three of Minnesota's biggest health plans in the market where individuals buy coverage are seeking premium increases for next year - though less than what they sought for 2022. The Minnesota Department of Commerce on Friday released the rate proposals for the state's individual market, where about 160,000 people buy coverage. For 2023, three large carriers in the market are seeking average increases of between 2 and 6%. A fourth large insurer has proposed lowering premiums by an average of 2%....
AUSTIN, Texas - Police had enough officers and firepower on the scene of the Uvalde school massacre to have stopped the gunman three minutes after he entered the building, and they would have found the door to the classroom where he was holed up unlocked if they had bothered to check it, the head of the Texas state police testified Tuesday, pronouncing the law enforcement response an "abject failure." Officers with rifles instead stood in a hallway for over an hour, waiting in part for more...

WASHINGTON - Senate bargainers reached agreement Tuesday on a bipartisan gun violence bill, the parties' top two negotiators said, teeing up votes this week on an incremental but notable package that would stand as Congress's response to mass shootings in Texas and New York that shook the nation.

Chris Murphy, D-Conn., and John Cornyn, R-Texas, told reporters...

Darius Ramon Sledge Jr. and Baquan Martese Sledge were found guilty in North Dakota’s federal court on several drug-related charges, including continuing criminal enterprise and maintaining a drug-involved premise.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a victory for students across the nation, the U.S. Supreme Court just validated parents’ constitutionally-protected right to direct the education of their children. The 6-3 decision in Carson v Makin reads in part that “once a state decides to subsidize private education it cannot disqualify some private schools because they are religious.” Maine created a tuition assistance program so that students living in communities without state-run public schools would have options, but they limited those options to secular schools....

This day is designated to raise awareness about refugees – people like myself who have fled their homes because of civil war or natural disasters. Being a refugee means you lost everything you had or that had been built for you. Imagine walking away with nothing from your life as you knew it, and your only priority is to save your loved ones and get them safely out of the conflict zone. Imagine striving to keep hope a...
