Summary

Today’s Headlines: The Supreme Court had a busy day yesterday with several notable decisions. First, an unpublished opinion on emergency abortion care leaked online, revealing that emergency abortions can continue in Idaho for now due to the Court's decision not to rule on the merits of the case, upholding the EMTALA for the time being. In another decision, the Court ruled 6-3 to limit a federal public corruption law, allowing public officials to accept bribes for official acts if delivered after the fact, sparking concerns about ethics and accountability. Additionally, the Court upheld the government's ability to communicate with social media platforms about content moderation in a 6-3 ruling, but suggested that Congress should address the issue. In other news, President Biden pardoned thousands of LGBTQ veterans wrongfully discharged under a former law banning gay sex in the military, allowing them to apply for benefits. Sixteen Nobel Prize-winning economists warned that a second Trump administration would worsen inflation due to his proposed policies, including a 10% tariff on all imports. The US Surgeon General declared gun violence a public health crisis, urging Congress to take action. Meanwhile, Florida declined a federal grocery subsidy program that would have provided school meals for 2 million low-income children, citing operational costs and conditions. Lastly, a military coup attempt in Bolivia failed, with President Luis Arce remaining in power and the coup's leader arrested.
