Israeli president at the White House, Netanyahu gets invitation

One day before Israeli President Isaac Herzog's White House visit Tuesday, President Joe Biden invited the country's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the U.S. later this year in a move to address the troubled friendship between the longtime allies.

Tensions between Biden and Netanyahu have hit a critical point, driven in part by the months-long crisis in Israel over justice measures that will weaken the country's Supreme Court.

• Netanyahu's judicial overhaul agenda has fueled months of demonstrations. A massive protest erupted in Tel Aviv over the weekend after the Knesset cleared a key hurdle last week to write the reforms into law.

• The prime minister's office said Netanyahu spoke to Biden about the legislation he hopes to pass next week and his intention to gain public support for the overhaul by the summer recess.

• But Tuesday began with fresh protests from Israelis who blocked highways and gathered outside Tel Aviv’s stock exchange and military headquarters in the latest "day of disruption."

Georgia court rejects Trump request to bar state from prosecuting him

Georgia’s Supreme Court has rejected a request from former President Donald Trump to prevent officials from prosecuting him over his efforts to overturn his loss in the state's 2020 presidential election tally. The court unanimously refused a push from Trump’s attorneys filed last week that argued a special grand jury report should be discarded and that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis should be halted from seeking charges. The state Supreme Court in its ruling this week said Trump’s filing didn’t have “the facts or the law necessary to mandate Willis’s disqualification by this Court at this time on this record.” Read more

Judge temporarily blocks Iowa's 'fetal heartbeat' law

Abortion is again legal in Iowa for up to 20 weeks of pregnancy after a Polk County judge temporarily blocked a law amid pending legal challenges. Gov. Kim Reynolds signed the "fetal heartbeat" law Friday afternoon, effectively banning nearly all abortions after doctors detect cardiac activity in the embryo. Abortion providers and the American Civil Liberties Union of Iowa sued last week, alleging that the law violates Iowans' inalienable rights and their rights to due process and equal protection under the Iowa Constitution. Now one of the questions in the current case is whether abortion merits additional protections under the Iowa Constitution. Read more

FDA approves new RSV drug

The Food and Drug Administration has approved a drug aimed at protecting infants and toddlers from respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV. The new drug called Beyfortus is the first of its kind likely to be widely available to everyone up to 24 months of age beyond a small population of immunocompromised children. The new drug prevents RSV lower respiratory tract disease in infants and children entering or during their first RSV season and is the second monoclonal antibody on the market. In the U.S., about 58,000 children younger than 5 are hospitalized for RSV each year and several hundred die.

CSU, nation's largest university system, mishandled claims

A constellation of failures at California State University contributed to the widespread mishandling of sexual misconduct claims and an erosion of trust among students, faculty and staff at the nation’s largest four-year public university system, according to a written report released Monday by the law firm Cozen O’Connor. The report caps a yearlong, systemwide assessment of the university’s Title IX practices, as well as its handling of discrimination, harassment and retaliation. It was commissioned by the school’s Board of Trustees in March 2022 in response to an exclusive USA TODAY investigation which revealed how then-CSU Chancellor Joseph Castro ignored sexual harassment, bullying and retaliation complaints against a senior administrator.
