Summer officially started less than two weeks ago, but large portions of the country are already under a dangerous record-breaking heat wave. Officials in some cities are reminding people to check in on their neighbors, as high temperatures can be much more than just uncomfortable. Meanwhile Secretary of Energy Chris Wright has issued emergency orders aimed at preventing power outages as the extreme heat drives up electricity demand. The emergency measures allow additional power generation and backup resources to be used if needed through Friday.
The Supreme Court upheld birthright citizenship on Tuesday, ruling that all children born in the U.S. are citizens. This strikes down President Trump’s executive order that denied automatic U.S. citizenship to children born to parents who were in the country illegally or on temporary visas, saying that it violated the 14th Amendment.. Congress has the power to rewrite the 14th Amendment to limit who is granted automatic citizenship, but would require a two-thirds vote in the House and the Senate.
The American West is taking center stage on the National Mall as part of the nation's 250th birthday celebration. From bucking broncos to trick riders, organizers say Rodeo 250 is more than just entertainment, it's about telling the story of the American cowboy and the values that helped shape the country. Visitors praised the idea of bringing the traditions of the American West to the nation's capital, with Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins saying American wasn’t build in boardrooms, it was built from horseback.
