Updated on: May 3, 2024 / 6:20 AM EDT / CBS/AP What the new DACA ruling means for “Dreamers” What the latest DACA ruling means for “Dreamers” 04:08 Washington — Roughly 100,000 immigrants who were brought to the U.S. as children are expected to enroll in the Affordable Care Act’s health insurance next year under a new directive the Biden administration released Friday. The move took longer than promised to finalize and fell short of President Biden’s initial proposal to allow those migrants to sign up for Medicaid , the health insurance program that provides nearly free coverage for the nation’s poorest people. But it will allow thousands of migrants to access lucrative tax breaks when they sign up for coverage after the Affordable Care Act’s marketplace enrollment opens Nov. 1, just days ahead of the presidential election. While it may help the president boost his appeal at a crucial time among Latinos, a crucial voting bloc he needs to turn out to win the election, the move is certain to prompt more criticism among conservatives about the president’s border and migrant policies .

Earlier in the day, McDougal’s former attorney Keith Davidson testified about that deal and another he negotiated from just before the presidential election: a $130,000 payment from Cohen to adult film star Stormy Daniels.

Students and faculty at San Luis Obispo High School held their annual Empty Bowls fundraising event Thursday. Students from the ceramics club and ceramics classes teamed up to make about 300 bowls, while students from the culinary classes made the soup enjoyed by attendees. Proceeds from the event will go to the 40 Prado Homeless Services Center, which will help CAPSLO provide things ranging from emergency shelter to safe parking and on-site health care services. This year’s event was the first time it was held on campus. The previous seven years it was at the farmers’ market in downtown San Luis Obispo. “The kids get to make art, they get to practice their skills, they also get to give back to the community,” said Tawnee Houle, a ceramics teacher at San Luis Obispo High School. “It’s a really good cause to get involved with and they get community service hours for it.” Students also showcased their artistic abilities with an art show while students from the jazz band at the high school played music for entertainment.

The City of Santa Maria just received a boost to improve bicycle and pedestrian safety. The city received a $120,000 grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety to promote safe practices and provide education about the importance of sharing the road. City officials said the funds will support a variety of safety-focused activities, such as developing programs aimed at educating young riders and pedestrians, community and school education programs, helmet-fitting inspections and distributing helmets to those in need, among other things. “I think it’s going to be good because it’s going to provide funding to create some educational programs to educate riders on safe bike practices,” said Scott Clark, owner of Main Street Cycles in Santa Maria. “Both in what to wear and how to protect themselves and be visible, as well as, I think the importance of learning how to follow the rules of the road.” The funding will also go towards pop-up events that promote the importance of visibility on the roads and the equipment needed to be visible to drivers. The grant program will run through September 2024.

El texano Mario “Azteca” Barrios estará en la cartelera estelar de una función que encabeza Saúl Álvarez una vez más este sábado en Las Vegas, Nevada. Barrios (28-2, 18 KOs) conquistó el título interino welter del Consejo Mundial de Boxeo (CMB) con una victoria por decisión unánime en 12 asaltos contra el cubano Yordenis Ugás el año pasado, cuando Canelo derrotó a Jermell Charlo en el T-Mobile Arena. En ese combate, Barrios derribó a Ugás dos veces en el combate rumbo a una victoria convincente y dominante. Barrios, de 28 años, defenderá ese título ante un rival de un apellido muy conocido, Fabián Andrés Maidana, hermano de Marcos Maidana, pugilista argentino que enfrentó en dos ocasiones a Floyd Mayweather Jr. Sin embargo, Fabián es un peleador más extraño y tiene un mayor alcance físico que su hermano, Marcos. “Se mueve más. Tiene mucha hambre y me tengo que mantener enfocado”, declaró Barrios en entrevista de LA Times en Español. “Es un pelador que presiona, tira muchos golpes. Tira mucho al cuerpo, lastima a mucha gente al que enfrenta. Tengo que estar muy defensivo. No puedo

City officials declared a public health emergency Thursday after a tuberculosis outbreak left one person dead and nine others hospitalized. Health officials said the outbreak stemmed from a group of people who stayed together at a Long Beach hotel room. As of April 29, 14 cases of tuberculosis (TB) are associated with this outbreak — nine of them required hospitalization and one case was fatal. Investigators said around 170 people have likely been exposed to the illness. Health officials are in contact with any guests or individuals who were at the hotel during the time the infected people were present. Tuberculosis is a serious illness that mainly affects the lungs, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The bacteria is spread through the air when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks. “Tuberculosis spreads easily where people gather in crowds or where people live in crowded conditions,” Long Beach health officials said. “People with HIV/AIDS and other people with weakened immune systems have a higher risk of catching tuberculosis than people with typical immune systems.” “Symptoms of TB disease depend on where in
