“The immigration bill appeared to be on a glide path this week, but the White House's”
announcement of an anti-weaponization fund derailed that.

Enough Senate Republicans were alarmed over the plan, and want to address it before passing
immigration funding. It's another sign of growing tension between Republicans in Congress and the White House, and comes on the heels of President Trump working to oust Republican incumbents.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed an executive order to help protect workers from
artificial intelligence, and PR's John Ruich has more. The forecast can be dire when it comes to the effect of AI on jobs, and it's something a lot of people are worried about according to polls.

that provide workers with a safety net. It also has to come up with a plan for expanding enrollment in employment insurance and make recommendations for how to boost worker training. Newsom directed part of the government to team up with the University of California and Stanford to develop ways to help AI advance the public good and address problems facing
