(AP Photo/Evan Vucci, File)HOUSTON – A federal judge late Tuesday indefinitely banned President Joe Biden's administration from enforcing a 100-day moratorium on most deportations. Biden proposed the 100-day pause on deportations during his campaign as part of a larger review of immigration enforcement and an attempt to reverse the priorities of former President Donald Trump. Even without a moratorium, immigration agencies have wide latitude in enforcing removals and processing cases.

(AP Photo/Evan Vucci)WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden wants to raise refugee admissions to 62,500 for the current budget year, overriding former President Donald Trump’s record-low limit of 15,000, a U.S. official and others said Thursday. Trump set the ceiling on refugee admissions in October when the 2021 budget year started, and it runs until September 30. Biden's proposal of 62,500 would replace that, and the president has already announced plans to raise admissions to twice that amount in 2022. Trump targeted the refugee program under his anti-immigration policies, dropping admissions yearly until they reached a record low of 15,000. Biden, who co-sponsored legislation creating the refugee program in 1980, has said reopening the doors to refugees is “how we will restore the soul of our nation.”Ad___Watson reported from San Diego.

(AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)WASHINGTON – Vice President Kamala Harris spoke with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday, marking her first call to a foreign leader since entering the White House. The detained Canadians are a top priority for Trudeau, and Canada has pushed Washington to apply pressure on Beijing to release them. AdA senior official familiar with the call said Harris proactively brought up the two detained Canadians herself — something that was appreciated by Trudeau and Canadian officials. Canada has traditionally been the first foreign stop for new U.S. presidents, and Biden's first call to a foreign leader was to Trudeau, made the Friday after he was sworn in.

Now, social scientists are studying kids’ environment and their caregivers to see what difference the adults have on kids’ early academic skills. The findings suggested that kids received the most stimulation from their childcare providers, followed by mom and then dad. Cabrera said dads’ activities with two-year-olds were associated with higher scores for kids’ reading and math at age four and five. Researchers say the findings support the idea that kids benefit when multiple caregivers provide cognitive stimulation. “You know, maybe you’re reading the newspaper out loud, maybe you’re reading the comics, maybe you’re singing,” continued Cabrera.

Now, researchers are looking at how COVID stressors, including food insecurity, are affecting families. Georgetown University developmental psychologist Anna Johnson and her colleagues are examining how the pandemic is affecting low-income families and teachers. They found widespread food insecurity, which was linked to worse mental health. “Relatively high rates of depression and for parents, the depression and food insecurity associated with each other. So higher rates of depression went along with high rates of food insecurity,” explained Johnson.

Now, a new CDC survey shows older teens and young adults may be taking a hard hit to their mental health. Brandon Stratford is an education researcher with expertise in youth development and mental health. Stratford says parents can use recent headlines about mental health and COVID to start a conversation, especially when young adults are not living at home. Stratford suggests parents provide their young adult children with contacts for campus mental health resources. RELATED: New mental health dispatch program sees 7 mental health calls in first week

Credit: REUTERS/Jonathan ErnstWASHINGTON — President Trump on Monday left for the White House after being discharged from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, where he was sent on Friday after being diagnosed with COVID-19 and experiencing a fever and being given supplemental oxygen treatments. Earlier Monday, he played down the threat of the virus, which has killed 209,000 people in the United States, tweeting: “Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of Covid. Meanwhile, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is in the key battleground state of Florida for several events, including a nationally televised town hall.

Still, the doctors said Trump’s health is improving and that he could be discharged as early as Monday. In a short video released by the White House on Sunday, Trump insisted he understood the gravity of the moment. It was the second straight day of obfuscation from a White House already suffering from a credibility crisis. He was evasive about the timing of Trump oxygen drops. At the time of the briefing, Trump’s blood oxygen level was 98% — within normal rage, Trump’s medical team said.
