Border authorities abandon zero tolerance for immigrant families
United States border officials acknowledged that the zero tolerance policy toward immigrant families has been paused for now after President Trump ordered an end to family separations. Customs chief Kevin McAleenan said prosecutions of parents charged with illegally entering the U.S. cannot proceed while children cannot be separated from their parents, and he is pursuing a plan to resume prosecutions. Attorney General Jeff Sessions urged Congress to act, calling many children victims and warning about the MS-13 threat. Protests outside the Reno event denounced the policies as police directed traffic.

Gardening in heat continues into summer with tips from A Lynette Parsons
Heat continues to press on garden beds as roots struggle and pests like spider mites and thrips threaten buds. Gardeners may replant hot crops or refresh beds, till sandy soil to reduce nematodes, and steam-weEd-covered plots before tilling. For shade and cool feet, plant okra, melons, squash, and field peas. tomatoes peppers and eggplants can be started for fall. Rooting cuttings from existing tomatoes offers a quicker start, while protection from heat stroke is urged with hats and water. A Lynette Parsons is a master gardener and Chambers County resident.
