That has to be reversed.

Sen. Michael Bennet recently announced new legislation, “The Hot Foods Act,” that would allow the purchase of hot foods from grocery stores via the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).SNAP, previously known as “food stamps,” provides assistance to 42 million Americans. Most recipients are children, elderly or disabled. Certainly, nutritious food cannot be defined by its temperature and Bennet deserves credit for listening to experts and SNAP recipients. The legislation includes provisions that keep SNAP dollars from being used at fast-food establishments and other restaurants.The Hot Foods Act addresses an archaic rule within the SNAP program and will allow greater food choices for individuals and families receiving aid. Kudos to Bennet. When politicians propose evidence-based policy changes that translate into better outcomes, it is worth noting.SNAP is a more than $100 billion yearly program that is reauthorized every five years via the Farm Bill. It provides critical...Nearly 900,000-square-foot industrial park planned just north of Denver

Orange County Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Ferguson has been charged with multiple felonies in the shooting death of his wife at their Anaheim Hills home last week, a crime prosecutors say he confessed to his courtroom coworkers.Ferguson, 72, is accused of shooting 65-year-old Sheryl Ferguson on Aug. 3, then texting his court clerk and bailiff that he "just lost it," according to the Orange County District Attorney's Office and reporting by the Associated Press."I just shot my wife. I won’t be in tomorrow. I will be in custody. I’m so sorry," Ferguson allegedly wrote.According to the AP, prosecutors claim that after an argument at a restaurant, the Fergusons returned home, where the dispute continued.After Sheryl Ferguson said something to the effect of “why don’t you point a real gun at me?,” the judge produced a pistol from his ankle holster and shot her in the chest, according to court documents filed by prosecutors.The Fergusons' adult son, who reported the shooting to police, a...Attorney general appoints Hunter Biden special counsel

Attorney General Merrick Garland on Friday appointed David Weiss, the Delaware federal prosecutor who has led the investigation into Hunter Biden, as a special counsel overseeing the investigation.Garland said he made the decision in the politically explosive case after Weiss asked for the appointment. “On Tuesday of this week, Mr. Weiss advised me that in his judgment, his investigation had reached a stage at which he should continue his work as a special counsel, and he asked to be so appointed,” Garland said in a statement to the press Friday. “Upon considering his request, as well as the extraordinary circumstances relating to this matter, I have concluded that it is in the public interest to appoint him as special counsel.”Republicans have sharply criticized how the tax probe into Biden was handled, citing claims from two IRS whistleblowers that Weiss was blocked from seeking special counsel status — a claim Weiss and DOJ have consistently denied.Meanwhile, the pending plea dea...Oxnard man admits to providing gun used in fatal 2017 shooting

My song is mixed with English and Japanese, so not only is it a fusion of the languages, it’s a fusion of the sound as well because it’s more of a western beat that you would technically hear in America more maybe. But the lyrics and the melody are more Japanese-inspired in that it’s soft and more emotional. So yeah, I think it’s not the most generic way of describing J-pop, but it’s something I define as my kind of J-pop.”In “Not Another DJ,” BT...Latest news
