Manage episode 504642385 series 2504297
Here are 3 big things you need to know—
One — The Trump administration taking Boston to court over its immigration policies. On Thursday the Department of Justice filed suit against the city's Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu. The DOJ alleges Boston's policies that limit cooperation between police and federal immigration authorities violate the law. In response, Wu accused the administration of pursuing an authoritarian agenda.
Two --- The Trump administration is scrapping a Biden-era proposal requiring airlines to pay passengers for long delays, including up to 700 dollars for extended waits. The Transportation Department says the move aligns with administration priorities and is also weighing whether to roll back a rule forcing airlines to disclose service fees upfront.
And number three --- U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers says Detroit’s Mayor needs to call President Trump to get federal troops patrolling Motown. The Republican former congressman says Detroit is a hub for violent crime and soars above the national average for murder, rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. A city of Detroit spokesman counters Rogers, saying carjackings in Detroit have fallen 90-percent from 2013.
