A push to cut SNAP error rates could threaten food benefits (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A Republican law aimed at cutting waste in the food stamp program means states are making changes to comply – but it could cost some people their benefits. A federal program that helps millions of Americans pay for food each month hits a key deadline this week set by a 2025 Republican bill aimed at cutting wasteful spending. For people who use the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, nothing will automatically change on Sept. 30. But new requirements could lead to more people havi
Amid calls for AI rules, who in Congress has the tech savvy to help? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Few members of Congress have the kind of technology background that could be useful as they discuss regulating artificial intelligence. In July 2026, a House lawmaker admitted that he hadn’t known about “ChatGPT or whatever it is” until “a week ago,’’ per Vox.

Researcher Jacob Coxon, who worked for Anthropic, quit his job last week, saying publicly that the technology could destroy humankind within a few years and accusing companies of focusing on competition over safety. While the notion of AI as posing pot

Sept. 10, 2026, 4:59 p.m. ET | Washington; Hinesville, Ga.; Boston; and Santa Ana, Calif. For Joshua Kendall, who once worked as a messenger on Wall Street and often made deliveries to the World Trade Center, it was surreal in the days after Sept. 11 to see how buildings he knew had simply “evaporated.” Sitting on a bench in Boston’s Public Garden 25 years later, Mr. Kendall placed the stack of newspapers he was reading on his lap, and considered America’s global role then and now.
