EPA Rollback Could Bring Dirtier Air To Black Communities
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced a decision to delay or adjust stricter diesel emission standards, a move the agency projects will save the trucking industry billions.

San Francisco residents and hotel owners have initiated legal action against the city, alleging the Tenderloin district has been permitted to become a containment zone for rampant illegal drug use and other illicit activities.

Seattle Kraken schedule drop
The Seattle Kraken schedule for the 2026 – 2027 season dropped today: A few notables: This year marks an 84-game season, up from the previous 82-game season.
