Today is Wednesday, June 4th. We'll update you on America's trade negotiations and how an emergency

abortion policy was just reversed. Also, there are now air quality concerns spanning several

states from the Midwest to the east to the south and not only from wildfires. Plus, which

Navy ship is being renamed and why? Why TikTok is banning a popular hashtag, and what new movies will

debut at the Tribeca Festival starting today. Those stories and more news to know coming up.

Welcome, welcome to The Newsworthy, all the day's news in around 10 minutes. Fast, fair, fun,

and on the go. I'm Erica Mandy. Thanks so much for being here. You ready?

Let's do this. The U.S. is stepping up its trade demands. As Reuters reports, the Trump

administration has told countries to turn in their best offer on trade negotiations by today.

Remember, President Trump paused his so-called Liberation

Day tariffs for 90 days. And now that the 90 days is almost up, it looks like his administration

is trying to speed up trade talks. So far, only one agreement has been reached with a major

U.S. trading partner, Britain. And that was really more of a framework for ongoing talks.

White House officials say more

productive talks are still ongoing, though, with countries like Japan, Vietnam, India, and so on.

Meanwhile, court battles over these tariffs are still happening, but the Trump administration has told

trading partners that even if the court rules against them, that the tariffs will still come about

in some other way. Separately, those steel and aluminum tariffs

we told you about earlier this week just went into effect this morning. The president has said the tariffs

are meant to secure the future of the American steel industry, but critics say they're likely to cause

higher prices here in the U.S. And they could spark retaliation from trading partners. So, stay tuned.

American doctors who perform abortions will no longer be protected by federal law, even if they do it to save a woman's life.
