It's the Brian Lairn Show on WNYC.

I'm Bridget Bergen, senior reporter in the WNYC and Gothamist Newsroom filling in for Brian today.

Good morning, everybody.

Coming up in today's show, my colleague

Jessica Gould will be here to talk about some very interesting stories on her education beat,

including new AI guidelines for city schools, digital bathroom passes for students at some schools,

and whether mayoral control for the city schools will be extended for another four years.

Plus, we'll talk about the verdicts in two social media trials, which each found that companies

like Meta and Google are harming children on their platforms. We'll get the details on those

verdicts and find out what it might mean for the future of these tech giants.

And we're going to wrap today's show with a little spring cleaning. That's right. We're going to

have a professional organizer here to give us tips, and I am looking forward to that. If you have

been meaning to clean out your pantry or your closets, listen up. That's going to be around 1140 this morning. But first,

the breaking news overnight. The stalemate over funding, the Department of Homeland Security,

may be coming to an end. The Senate voted overnight to fund key parts of the agency,

including the Coast Guard, FEMA, and, most notably, TSA. The package does not include additional funding

for immigration and customs enforcement or border control. The bill now moves to the House today.

For Democrats who are holding out to try and force changes to how ICE conducts enforcement

following the deaths of two American citizens in Minneapolis, what did they actually achieve?

And for President Trump, who wanted to tie a strict new voter law to any funding deal, is there any chance he will back off the SAVE Act?

We're going to discuss all of that and more in a Friday federal morning politics roundtable as opposed to local politics.

Joining me now is Mary Claire Jalonic, a congressional reporter for the AP, who I think was up
