(The Hill) -- Florida's Orange County Public Schools sent out a memo on Monday that says its transgender employees and contractors can't use the pronouns or bathrooms that match their gender identity due to state law. The memo discusses House Bill 1069, which focuses on sex defined as an “immutable biological trait” at birth based on hormones and genitalia. Under the law, no one is allowed to be required to use a person’s “preferred personal title or pronoun,” and students are not to be asked for their pronouns. “The bill states that a transgender employee or contractor may not provide a personal title or pronoun to students which does not correspond the employee’s or contractor’s biological sex at birth,” the Orange County memo states.The second law mentioned in the memo, House Bill 1521, has to do with what bathroom an individual can use. Transgender students and employees will have single-stall bathrooms they can use — or they are allowed to use the bathroom that corres...Neighbor charged in fatal shooting of 9-year-old Chicago girl; witnesses say he was upset over noise

(The Hill)- The Supreme Court revived the Biden administration’s restrictions on so-called ghost guns in a 5-4 emergency ruling on Tuesday.The justices agreed to pause a lower court’s decision, which invalidated the regulation nationwide, as the administration continues its appeal.The decision hands a victory to Biden, at least for now. Biden last year announced the crackdown on ghost guns, referring to firearms that are sold as do-it-yourself kits and are generally hard to trace.The case will now proceed in a lower appeals court, which is slated to hear oral arguments next month. The matter could ultimately return to the Supreme Court.Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined the court’s three liberals in temporarily reviving the restrictions. Conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh dissented.The new regulations implemented by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) have come under m...Alert issued for salads, wraps possibly contaminated with deer feces
