Carter Wooing Demo Governors in Hershey for Unity Endorsement
Jimmy Carter met with 30 Democratic governors in Hershey to seal a unity endorsement as he heads toward the Democratic nomination. National chair Robert Strauss coordinated terms for a statement while Carter weighs welfare reform positions and federal funding shifts. Governor Mandel voiced caution on pledges, with Florida’s Askew backing Carter as the race moves forward.

Rules curb school functions ban father son events
Federal officials ruled public schools may not sponsor father son or mother daughter events as they constitute gender based separation. The June 25 letter to Scottsdale officials affirmed the policy under Title IX rules, warning of possible loss of federal funds or court action for noncompliance. Flooding reports followed in Arkansas City and surrounding Oklahoma Kansas areas, with Walnut River crest and widespread damage to fairgrounds and infrastructure.
