Unfortunately, slavery was not just propped up by policy in the slave states, but federally. It is often overlooked that the federal government—not just slave states—had implemented legal protections of slavery by policy for decades.
Congress just approved significant funding increases going forward for a handful of core domestic violence funding and policy initiatives. But at the same time, many services for survivors face a new level of unpredictability. Victim support funds in some states plummeted as much as 70%, leaving states to try and cover some of those costs. The Trump administration instituted requirements that domestic violence survivors prove their immigration status before being allowed into shelters and certain long-time domestic violence services remain a target in upcoming federal budget talks. We’ll get a picture of the current trends for domestic violence prevention.

On Friday, the Supreme Court struck down President Trump’s sweeping “retaliatory” tariffs, ruling that he doesn’t have the authority to impose them under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Many of the administration’s tariffs, however, remain intact, and President Trump has announced a new 15% global tariff following the decision. We discuss what that means companies, consumers, and the U.S.’s global trading partners. Plus, new analysis from the CATO Institute finds that the presence of immigrants helps to ease the federal budget deficit.

From the BBC World Service: Governments around the world are scrambling to react to President Trump’s decision to impose a sweeping 15% tariff on all imports to the United States. It follows Friday’s Supreme Court judgment that ruled the President had exceeded his authority when he imposed tariffs using a law reserved for national emergencies. And we’ll visit Spain, where the government recently announced plans to legalize around half a million undocumented migrants in a move designed to boost the country’s workforce in economic sectors that have struggled to recruit. Spain’s economy has been outstripping its European Union partners and the government wants to keep momentum going.
