🚨 Curfew for young people after Milwaukee shootings injure 21

Three people were injured in the first shooting, one in the second, and 17 in what police described as an exchange of gunfire between two groups of people, all just a few blocks from the arena where the Milwaukee Bucks lost to the Boston Celtics in Game 6 of the NBA’s Eastern Conference semifinals. All of the victims are expected to survive.

Mayor Cavalier Johnson said the city imposed a curfew for the downtown area requiring everyone age 20 or younger to be off the street by 11 p.m. for Saturday and Sunday. Extra police patrols also are planned.

👶 Abbott says if the FDA were to re-open its Michigan facility to address baby formula shortage, it would still take months to get more on shelves.

The company recalled several lots of the formula brands Similac, Alimentum, and EleCare in February following complaints that infants contracted cronobacter sakazakii, an environmental bacteria. All four babies used formula produced at the company's Sturgis, Michigan facility.

In the meantime, as more than 40% of leading baby formulas are out of stock, the FDA said all US-based formula manufacturers have increased production in recent weeks, and more products should be available on shelves soon. Abbott also said it's been shipping in products produced in their Cootehill, Ireland.

Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian, and other donors are committing $50 million to help fix the child care crisis in New York City. The city government is matching the donation with $50 million of its own funding.

The big name donations are just a drop in the $7 billion bucket that the state has proposed to contribute to child care this year.

Amazon has won more than $4.18 billion in government subsidies throughout the United States since 2012, a study published this year by UNI Global Union.

💊 Transgender medication law in Alabama blocked by judge

US District Judge Liles Burke issued a preliminary injunction to stop the state from enforcing the medication ban, which took effect May 8, while a lawsuit goes forward.

The ruling was a victory for families and advocacy groups who challenged the first-of-its-kind law as an illegal intrusion into family and medical decisions. Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey referred to the ruling as a “temporary legal roadblock.” Alabama’s state attorney general indicated he will appeal.

More than 20 medical and mental health organizations urged Burke to block the law. Fifteen states filed a brief in the case in support of Alabama’s law. Alabama lawmakers, who approved the bill this spring, said decisions on the medications should wait until adulthood.

🗣 Abortion rights backers rally in anger over post-Roe future

Abortion rights supporters demonstrating at hundreds of marches and rallies Saturday expressed their outrage that the Supreme Court appears prepared to scrap the constitutional right to abortion that has endured for nearly a half-century.
Incensed after a leaked draft opinion suggested the court’s conservative majority would overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling, activists spoke of the need to mobilize quickly because Republican-led states are poised to enact tighter restrictions.

The mood was one of anger and defiance, three days after the Senate failed to muster enough votes to codify Roe v. Wade.
