Then, a New York federal judge challenged a law that would allow people affected by gun violence to sue gunmakers yesterday, while executive pay for chief executives rose by 17.1% last year. Finally, Oklahoma has signed a state law that bans abortion from the point of fertilization, and a new scandal involving the Wisconsin Elections Commission.
