The Limit Does Exist
As the clock ticks closer to the June 1st default deadline, top aides to President Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy are working toward an agreement by Sunday. Meanwhile, Democrats are already looking into other last-ditch efforts – including a petition to force a debt ceiling vote in Congress, and even urging the president to invoke the 14th Amendment.
On Wednesday, the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals heard arguments over the abortion pill mifepristone. The three judges on the historically conservative panel will decide whether to allow the drug to remain on the market, in a case that will likely be appealed back up to the Supreme Court
And in headlines: Pennsylvania Democrats will keep their narrow majority in the state House, the Supreme Court refused to block Illinois’ ban on assault weapons, and the publishing giant Penguin Random House has sued a Florida school district for banning books about race and queer identity.
