Summary

Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona said that students must be in classrooms this year and that schools should require everyone to mask up, but local districts will ultimately decide on their policies themselves. Some workplaces are moving forward with vaccine and mask mandates, but predominantly among their white-collar employees. The House failed to pass an extension of the federal eviction moratorium before it ended last weekend, although several states have their own local moratoriums still in place. But millions of Americans could face eviction in the coming months, with an estimated 15 million renters owing a collective $20 billion to landlords in back rent. And in headlines: the flooding death toll in China rises, Simone Biles makes a comeback, and a MAGA twitter clone has an ISIS problem.

0:54.9	returning to classrooms as early as the end of this month, this year's back to
0:59.2	school season is already shaping up to be confusing at best. Yeah, I am not
1:04.3	envying any parents, teacher, students, college kids, anybody in the mix right now.
1:08.3	No, I don't want to go anywhere near a school. It's a confusing time with
1:12.9	conflicting rules and guidance coming from different entities and levels of
1:15.8	government. The situation is a real obstacle course of butts. That's butt with one
1:21.4	tea. Okay, thank you. At the federal level Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona
1:25.4	said yesterday that students must be in classrooms this year and that schools
1:29.5	should follow the CDC's recommendations and require masking for all students,
1:33.3	teachers, visitors, and staff regardless of vaccination status. But the
