(AP) — Christopher Ford was a baby when his father was sentenced to 28 years in prison for participating in a murder-for-hire scheme that led to the killings of two people at a car dealership. After serving 25 years, prison officials told Robert Glenn Ford he would be released in July under a 2020 Virginia law that allowed inmates to shave more time off their sentences for good behavior, his son said. But just before he was expecting to go home, Virginia lawmakers approved a budget amendment from Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin that excluded Ford and thousands of other inmates with violent offenses from receiving the expanded earned sentence credits, meaning they would have to serve more time. “Using this back-door method days before they were supposed to get out was, to me, hugely wrong,” Christopher Ford said in an interview. As lawmakers debated the amendment, … [Read more...] about Virginia law stops early inmate releases, angering families

(AP) — More than halfway through a tumultuous primary season, voters have rendered verdicts in a number of contests, many of which featured candidates arguing they best represented a continuation of policies favored by former President Donald Trump. While not on the ballot himself, Trump has played a role in several races, with candidates bearing his endorsement meeting a variety of electoral outcomes.

Here's what's happened so far in primary races across the country: FALLEN INCUMBENTS Eight incumbents — three Democrats and five Republicans — lost their U.S. House seats already this year after being defeated in their … [Read more...] about Ousters, upsets halfway through 2022 primary election season

(AP) — In the central Oregon city of Bend, the sole Planned Parenthood clinic serving the eastern half of the state is bracing for an influx of patients, particularly from neighboring Idaho, where a trigger law banning most abortions is expected to take effect this summer. “We've already started hiring,” said Joanna Dennis-Cook, the Bend Health Center Manager. Across the U.S. West, many abortion providers serving rural areas were already struggling to meet demand in a vast region where staffing shortages and long travel distances are barriers to reproductive services for women. Oregon alone is larger geographically than the entire United Kingdom. Some facilities serving rural communities in states where abortion remains legal worry those pre-existing challenges could be further compounded by the overturning of Roe v. Wade, as more patients travel from states … [Read more...] about In rural West, more worries about access to abortion clinics

Ambas fuerzas están dedicando grandes sumas en su esfuerzo para involucrar a los votantes latinos, sobre todo en estados como Texas, Florida, Georgia, Nevada, Arizona, Ohio o Pensilvania, donde el voto está disputado. En los últimos meses han creado nuevos centros comunitarios hispanos, puesto anuncios en medios en español y contratado personal bilingüe para convencer a los latinos de que apoyen a los candidatos de cada partido en las contiendas a nivel federal, estatal y local. “El DNC (Comité Nacional Demócrata) ya ha gastado seis cifras en medios … [Read more...] about Demócratas, republicanos invierten para obtener voto hispano
