Trump administration officials on Thursday stripped Endangered Species Act protections for gray wolves in most of the U.S., ending longstanding federal safeguards and putting states in charge of overseeing the predators. The U.S. Department of Interior announcement just days ahead of the Nov. 3 election could lead to resumption of wolf hunts in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin - a crucial battleground in the campaign between President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden. It's the...
(Washington, D.C.) - Today, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced a final rule returning the management of gray wolf populations to the States. This final rule delists the gray wolf from federal protections under the Endangered Species Act, giving state governments the authority to manage gray wolf populations and prevent livestock losses in accordance with state law.

But the pandemic has thrust education policy onto the national stage, bringing unusual attention to new debates about when to reopen schools and what resources schools need to get back on track. That means that the elections for president and Congress will almost certainly have some concrete implications for schools in just the next few months. And even though education hasn’t been at the center of President Donald Trump’s or former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaigns, the two candidates offer...
What once was a constant trickle of teachers fleeing Arizona classrooms has turned into a flood of departures because of the pandemic. COVID-19's widespread impact on schools has highlighted a persistent teacher shortage in Arizona, one that's gone on for more than a decade. In March, the pandemic forced teachers out of school.

(AP) — As many as four in five New Mexico public school students are failing at least one class in some school districts, according to data made public Wednesday by legislative analysts.

Shocking video showed 6-year-old Kaia Rolle being hauled away from her school by a police officer, after she kicked a teacher during a tantrum in an incident last year. Body camera footage captured it all, including Rolle's pleas to "let me go" and insisting "I don't want to put handcuffs on." Nevertheless, the first grader was placed in handcuffs and taken to a juvenile detention center to be booked and fingerprinted in September 2019, according to Rolle's grandmother Meralyn Kirkland....

Colorful fall leaves have blown away, but hopefully you got a chance to enjoy the vibrant oranges, yellows, and reds of maple trees. Minnesota has six species of native maples, and some non-native species as well. You may be familiar with the lobed shape of a maple leaf, but on closer inspection each of these seven species' leaves look a little different. Leaf shape is useful to identify species including the non-native and invasive Norway maple. Norway maple is a large shade tree and looks...
When then-presidential candidate Donald Trump spoke in Manchester, N.H., a week before the 2016 election, he said the opioid crisis was destroying lives and shattering families. "We are going to stop the inflow of drugs into New Hampshire and into our country 100%," Trump promised. It was a major campaign issue.
