Gov. Tim Walz lauded Minnesota on Monday for reaching its "moonshot" testing goal to closely track the spread of COVID-19, but he warned that everything from mask-wearing in public to social distancing in bars will be needed to see the state through this pandemic. While Minnesota isn't seeing the rapid growth in COVID-19 occurring right now in other states, Walz said he is concerned because of the recent outbreaks related to crowded bars and the gatherings over the upcoming holiday weekend that...
Comments made by public officials and others about the May 25 killing of George Floyd and the former Minneapolis police officers charged in his death threaten to move court proceedings outside of Hennepin County, a judge warned Monday. At an omnibus hearing Monday afternoon, several of the defense attorneys representing the former officers - Derek Chauvin, J. Alexander Kueng, Thomas Lane and Tou Thao - criticized city, county and state officials for expressing opinions they believe have tainted...
WASHINGTON - Eight Republican lawmakers attended a White House briefing Monday about explosive allegations that Russia secretly offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for killing American troops in Afghanistan - intelligence the president himself was said to have not been fully read in on. Members of Congress in both parties called for additional information and consequences for Russia and its president, Vladimir Putin, even as White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany insisted...
When Melissa Rice went to bed Sunday night, she knew there was a chance for inclement weather and prayed there would not be a tornado. There was no tornado in Baldwin, Wis., but hours of heavy rain - up to 9 inches according to some estimates - brought flooding that washed out roads and sent gallons of water pouring into basements all across town. The torrent had law enforcement conducting water rescues and evacuations in Baldwin, a town about 40 miles east of St. Paul. At least eight families...
California's Gilead Sciences announced pricing on Monday for the first drug authorized to treat COVID-19 in the United States, and industry observers did not immediately pass out from sticker shock. The price range for the drug remdesivir - $3,120 for commercially insured U.S. patients, and $2,340 for government programs here and abroad - was in the neighborhood of the pricing suggestions announced previously by the independent Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER) in Boston....
ROME - The world surpassed two sobering coronavirus milestones Sunday -- 500,000 confirmed deaths, 10 million confirmed cases -- and hit another high mark for daily new infections as governments that attempted reopenings continued to backtrack and warn that worse news could be yet to come. "COVID-19 has taken a very swift and very dangerous turn in Texas over just the past few weeks," said Gov. Greg Abbott, who allowed businesses to start reopening in early May but on Friday shut down bars and...
Regina Fargis didn't know what to do. Fargis runs Summit Hills - a health and retirement community in Spartanburg, South Carolina, that offers skilled nursing, activities and communal meals for its residents, most of whom are over 60, the highest-risk category for coronavirus complications. In South Carolina, more than a hundred new cases were emerging daily. So she took precautions: no visitors, hand sanitizer everywhere and regular reminders for residents about the importance of social...
The Minnesota Department of Transportation reminds the public that placing signs, including campaign signs, along trunk highways is prohibited. State law (Minn. Stat. 160.2715) prohibits the placement, painting, printing or affixing of advertisements on any object within the limits of a trunk highway. This restriction includes driving lanes, inside and outside shoulders, ditches and sight corners at intersections. The trunk highway system includes state, U.S., and interstate highways in Minnesota. The Minnesota Outdoor Advertising Control Act (...

Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are demanding answers after a flurry of reports revealed the intelligence community concluded months ago that Russia offered bounties to incentivize Taliban-linked militants to kill U.S. and coalition troops in Afghanistan. The uproar includes a chorus of Republicans who are typically reticent to confront President Trump, who has sought to deflect blame and responsibility by arguing he was not briefed on the intelligence that he claims is not credible. But congressional Republicans and Democrats — calling t...

After months of remote learning, New Jersey students will return to classrooms at least part-time this fall, state officials said Friday. But the schools they return to will be transformed, with students urged to wear masks and stay six feet apart from their peers, according to long-awaited state guidelines released Friday. The 104-page guidelines set some minimum safety standards for reopening schools during the coronavirus pandemic, such as screening students and employees for virus symptoms, cleaning and disinfecting surfaces, and requiring...
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — All Alabama schools will reopen for traditional classes this fall, but they’ll also offer options for virtual learning for children whose parents aren’t comfortable sending them back, the state school superintendent said Friday. And even as Superintendent Eric Mackey announced plans for restarting the educational system, he warned at a news conference that the road map is subject to change “based on the spread of the virus.” “This is going to be the most difficult school year we have ever faced,” he said. https://apnew...
Wearing face masks, taking temperatures, sitting six feet apart: So much of the talk about returning to school this fall has been dominated by what it will take to make learning in person physically safe. But many school districts are also beginning to plan for a whole other world of teaching and learning — the all-virtual experience that students who stay home for medical or other reasons will need, and that some share of parents say they want. That work is underway in Florida’s Hillsborough County, where nearly 53,000 parents responded to...
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Philadelphia school officials are making changes regarding how the district handles security. School police will no longer patrol school halls come September. Instead, “school safety officers” clad in less severe uniforms and with different job descriptions will be stationed throughout the public schools, though officials note the policy shift won’t mean the replacement of the 300-plus people who worked as school police. The move comes as many communities nationwide are taking steps to remove police from schools, but off...
In a rare move by a presidential candidate, former Vice President Joe Biden detailed his plans this month calling for full federal funding of special education — something that hasn’t happened since Congress first passed sweeping legislation for students with disabilities 45 years ago. In California, that could mean an additional $2.66 billion for schools annually, according to the California School Boards Association. The extra money would give schools leeway in their budgets for other programs, and improve special education offerings in dis...
