GOP pressure on Pelosi for COVID origins probe
More than 200 House Republicans urged Speaker Nancy Pelosi to back a bipartisan inquiry into COVID-19 origins. The letter cites a Wall Street Journal report about three workers sick in late 2019 and notes calls from U S officials, including Xavier Becerra, for another review. Biden ordered a origins review after intelligence suggested a lab leak as a possibility.

Saugatuck Township firefighters vote to unionize
Saugatuck Township Fire District firefighters voted to unionize last year and pursue a collective bargaining agreement with the fire district board and Fire Chief Greg Janik. Led by Capt. Mike Betts, they joined MPFFU and IAFF to access resources, advocacy, and future benefits, citing retention and service quality goals. The five full time members, excluding the chief, wrote that the move reflects a united team with strong leadership, not dissatisfaction. The tentative contract, under legal review, introduces longevity pay of 500 dollars per year after five years, 1000 after ten, and 1500 after fifteen.
