This Day in History on November 26: King Tut's Tomb Discovered
On November 26th, history has witnessed a remarkable array of events that have shaped our world in profound ways. Starting with one of the most monumental events in contemporary history, November 26, 1989, marked a pivotal moment in the aftermath of the Cold War. On this day, the Berlin Wall, a symbol of division and oppression, had already begun to crumble just weeks earlier.

Durbin, Duckworth Join Introduction Of Bicameral Legislation To Expand Protections For Migrants' Essential Personal Belongings
SPRINGFIELD – U.S. Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL), Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) joined U.S. Senator Peter Welch (D-VT) and U.S. Representatives Delia Ramirez (D-IL-03) and Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ-07) in introducing the CBP Guidance on Personal Belongings Act , bicameral legislation to require the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to develop guidance for the handling of personal property of individuals arrested, restrained, or confined by the Agency. The legislation would expand protections for all individuals traveling through CBP custody to ensure they can retain and retrieve their essential personal belongings if confiscated. The bill would also help to ensure that individuals can maintain access to their medications unless CBP officials have identified a specific safety concern or provided an equivalent replacement medication.
