How to pay for it all remained deeply in flux Tuesday, with a proposed billionaires' tax running into criticism as cumbersome or worse. That's forcing difficult reductions, if not the outright elimination, of policy priorities — from paid family leave to child care to dental, vision and...
WASHINGTON — The U.S. moved a step closer to expanding COVID-19 vaccinations for millions more children as government advisers on Tuesday endorsed kid-size doses of Pfizer's shots for 5- to 11-year-olds.

That includes questions about a heart-related side effect that's been very rare in teens and young adults despite their use of a much higher vaccine dose....

He said he doesn't believe he can communicate clearly and effectively while wearing a...

Published in February, the study ranked states based on their quality of COVID-19 racial data and their effectiveness in collecting and reporting data on Native populations.
