>> Live from NPR News.
I'm Jyle Snyder with the conflict in the Middle East now in a six-day and effort to
“rain in President Trump's authority to wage war failed on Capitol Hill Senate Republicans”
blocked a war power's resolution Wednesday in Piers-Cluddy, Chris Alas. >> Largely, along partisan lines, the vote failed by 47253. We only saw one Republican join most Democrats to vote yes on this measure that was ran Paul of Kentucky. He's been a co-sponsor on several of these resolutions and Democrats also saw a defection
as Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman agreed with most Republicans voting the measure down. >> The house is to vote on its own war powers by solution Thursday to vent Secretary Pete Hegg says as an American submarine fired on and sank in Iranian naval vessel in international waters off the coast of Sri Lanka.
Sri Lankan rescue teams recovered more than 80 bodies and rescued more than 30 people
more remain missing. And Piers-Dia Hadid reports the incident puts other countries in an awkward place diplomatically. >> Initially, there was confusion. This is Indian Broadcaster and DTV.
“>> It is getting more and more intense and more and more bizarre.”
>> But within hours, Hesgets said this. >> It was sunk by a torpedo, quiet death. The attack occurred close to Sri Lanka that island is close to India's southeast and tip. And on a say, it's unclear if either country was forewarned and they say it's particularly
embarrassing for India because the Iranian vessel had departed from an Indian port, meaning this happened on India's watch. So far, India hasn't commented on the incident. Sri Lanka's government says it doesn't want to become a victim on this conflict. See Hadid and Pianus, one by now to California where schools are seeing a lot of turmoil
this year. San Francisco educators went on strike last month and as a faridage of a Romero reports from
“Member Station KQED, teachers and other districts from Los Angeles to West Sacramento are”
also weighing work stoppages. >> Common teacher concerns are pay and benefits and majority of school funding comes from the state, but enrollment is declining in most districts and state funding, which is tied to student attendance, isn't keeping up with costs. David Goldberg is president of the California Teacher's Association.
>> There's an interesting dynamic in California where we have both locally negotiate a contract, but we also have a dire need for state funding, so it's kind of really put the focus on both. The union worked with members to ensure several labor contracts expired around the same time. Goldberg hopes the coordinated strategy gets the attention of state lawmakers and the governor.
For NPR News, I'm Frida Javala Romero in Oakland, California. >> This is NPR. >> The Republican-led house oversight committee voted Wednesdays to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi, lawmakers in both parties want Bondi to testify and oversight investigation into the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Bondi has come under fire for her handling
of the Epstein files. On a party-line vote, a Senate committee has advanced President Trump's controversial nominee to be the nation's next public lands chief. NPR's Kirk Sigler reports that former New Mexico Congressman Steve Pierce has called for selling the public lands he's poised to manage.
Following federal public land stirs bipartisan backlash here in the west where much of the land is open to the public. In his confirmation hearing, Steve Pierce said his prior support of those sales was in his past and he promised he wouldn't push to roll back protections for national monuments. Conservationists and some local officials like Tauce New Mexico Town Councilman Daryan
Fernandez are buying it. >> I'll give him credit that at least he understands that his record is bad enough that now even he's trying to run from it.
Pierce is president Trump's second nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management in this
term his first Colorado oil and gas lobbyist with Drew last year after comments surface sheed criticized his role in the January 6th insurrection. Kirk Sigler and PR news shares open sharply higher in Asia following Wednesday's rebound on Wall Street. South Korea's benchmark cost is up 9% after its worst plunge ever the day before.
In Tauceo, Japan's NECA is up 2% after uncertainty about the war in the Middle East rattle financial markets this week. I'm Jail Snyder and PR News.
