ACLU urges six WV schools to review student policies
The American Civil Liberties Union of West Virginia sent letters to six schools on the 81st anniversary of Barnette urging review of handbooks to ensure First Amendment rights. Policies requiring standing for the flag, removing hats for the national anthem, or reciting the Pledge may violate free speech protections. Schools named include Calhoun Middle High, Riverside High Kanawha, Summers County Comprehensive, Richwood High Nicholas, Sissonville Middle Kanawha, and John Adams Middle Kanawha.

HUD takes action against heat
The U S Department of Housing and Urban Development issued guidance to public housing agencies to help mitigate extreme heat. PHAs may raise utility allowances or waive cooling surcharges to allow residents to use air conditioning during heat waves. HUD defines extreme heat as 90 degrees for two to three days, but allows local definitions to fit community needs.
