  • Responses to Minnesota's police reforms range from lukewarm to 'slap in the face'

    Jul 22, 2020

    Minnesota's historic police reforms drew varied reactions Tuesday, from mild enthusiasm to disgust, with a common refrain: The state still has a long way to go. A compromise product of a divided state Legislature, the package of policing changes was welcomed as a step in the right direction - but one that falls far short of the sort of transformational change demanded after the police killing of George Floyd. Attorney and activist Nekima Levy Armstrong called the final product "a slap in the...

    Jul 22, 2020

    WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump warned on Tuesday that the "nasty horrible'" coronavirus will get worse in the U.S. before it gets better, but he also tried to paint a rosy picture of efforts to conquer the disease that has claimed more than 140,000 American lives in just five months. He also professed a newfound respect for the protective face masks he has seldom worn. He pulled one from his pocket in the White House briefing room but didn't put it on. After a three-month hiatus from his...

    Jul 22, 2020

    COLUMBUS, Ohio - The powerful Republican speaker of the Ohio House and four associates were arrested Tuesday in a $60 million federal bribery case connected to a taxpayer-funded bailout of Ohio's two nuclear power plants.

Gov. Mike DeWine, also a...

  • Collapse of bonding bill in Minnesota sparks political recrimination

    Jul 22, 2020

    A major public infrastructure package projected to create thousands of construction jobs around Minnesota faces an uncertain fate after the Legislature ended a special session Tuesday without agreement on a $1 billion-plus borrowing bill.

Another special session in June, dominated by the police killing of George Floyd, also end...

  • 'It's insane': Millions of kids could lose access to free meals if this program expires

    Jul 22, 2020

    The Trump administration is resisting calls to make it easy for tens of millions of students to get free meals at school this year, even as childhood hunger rates have risen to the highest levels in decades. During the spring and summer, as the coronavirus health crisis exploded, the government allowed most families to pick up free meals from whichever school was closest or most convenient without proving they were low-income. But that effort is on the verge of expiring as states prepare for children to return to school, and as school systems...

    Jul 22, 2020

A new bill, which has been introduced by bipartisan teams in both the House and Senate, would give tribal governments until Dec. 30, 2022, to spend funds that would otherwise need to be spent by the end of this year. “Tribal communities ravaged by the COVID-19 pandemic received federal resources and relief far too late — pitting them right up aga...
