The U.S. Supreme Court rejected the Biden administration's attempt to challenge a Texas law banning most abortions. The administration argued that the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) should require hospitals to provide abortions to protect women's health, but the court ruled this was an overreach.
The ruling upheld a Fifth Circuit decision stating that EMTALA does not mandate specific medical treatments, including abortions, and that states govern medical practices. This decision leaves the Texas law intact, which allows abortions only under specific health risks.

Forbes: Hurricane Milton Can’t Be A ‘Category 6’—But Some Researchers Think It’s Time To Create A New Tier For The Strongest Storms
Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall in west-central Florida as a Category 4 storm, having previously reached Category 5 status with winds up to 180 mph. The storm's intensity has sparked discussions about the potential need for a Category 6 classification due to climate change.
Despite the debate, the National Hurricane Center currently has no plans to add a sixth category, as Milton's peak winds do not meet the proposed threshold of 192 mph. Climate change is believed to intensify storms, but the frequency of hurricanes has not significantly increased.
