Top US government officials are considering stricter testing requirements for everyone traveling to the US as concerns about the Omicron variant rise. By one estimate from the pro-abortion rights Guttmacher Institute, 26 states are certain or likely to ban abortions if the precedent is overturned. While the high court’s decision on both these laws could curtail abortion access in several ways, conservative legislators have long tried to get Roe overturned altogether. A similar law in Texas that drew widespread condemnation was allowed to go into effect in September despite surprising skepticism from some conservative Supreme Court justices. Several such laws have been enacted across the country recently with the aim of getting the Supreme Court to hear a direct challenge to Roe. The Mississippi law at issue bars most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy, a standard that violates legal precedent set by the 1973 decision. The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments today in a case that could result in Roe v. Investigators have a “tremendous amount of video footage” to examine as they work to gather more information about the incident, and they are also looking at the suspect’s social media accounts. The weapon recovered by law enforcement at the scene, a 9MM semi-automatic pistol, was bought Friday by suspect’s father, authorities said. His parents have hired an attorney and have not let him talk to police, authorities said. The suspect, a 15-year-old sophomore at the school, was taken into custody as police arrived on the scene. All three who were killed and most of the wounded were students. Three people are dead and eight more are seriously injured after a mass shooting at Oxford High School in Oxford, Michigan.
