By 1982, it expanded beyond its summer roots, becoming a year-round program. Today, members of the Barron family are doing more than handstands and cartwheels. They’ve also waded into the swim business, opening a swim school…

ST. LOUIS – Today, at a groundbreaking mayoral summit regarding gun violence prevention and holding the gun industry accountable, City of St. Louis Mayor Tishaura O. Jones and Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas, co-chairs of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, released new data on the manufacturers of guns used in crimes in Kansas City and St. Louis and called on their fellow mayors across the country to do the same. The summit was hosted by Mayors Against Illegal Guns Co-Chair New York Mayor Eric Adams, in partnership with the African American Mayors Association. “Gun violence is devastating St. Louis and cities across the country, and for too long, gun manufacturers have profited with zero accountability,” said Mayor Tishaura O. Jones. “We convened this summit to send a strong message to reckless actors in the gun industry: your days operating in the shadows are coming to a close.” “Just like how Big Tobacco needed to be held accountable for its role

WASHINGTON DC – Today, Congresswoman Robin Kelly (D-IL), Chair of the Congressional Black Caucus Health Braintrust, led a majority of the CBC in a letter to Federal Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Robert Califf expressing strong support for the FDA’s proposed rule to remove menthol cigarettes from the market. “After decades of the tobacco industry’s targeting of our children and our communities with pervasive marketing campaigns and price discounts, use of menthol cigarettes skyrocketed among Black Americans. As of 2020, menthol cigarettes accounted for 37% of all cigarette sales —the highest proportion since major tobacco companies were required to report the domestic market share of menthol and non-menthol cigarettes,” wrote the members. “The net result of these predatory marketing strategies is the Black community is suffering unfairly and disproportionately from tobacco-related diseases.” In 2019, approximately 85% of

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The House Transportation & Infrastructure Committee today unanimously voted to advance U.S. Representative Mike Bost’s (IL-12) Truck Parking Safety Improvement Act to the full House for approval. The bill would set aside existing U.S. Department of Transportation funding to address a critical shortage in available parking for semis and large commercial trucks. “Growing up in a family trucking business, I am all too familiar with the struggle our nation’s truckers face as they push the extra mile to find somewhere safe to park,” said Bost. “Expanding access to parking options for truckers will not only help ensure their safety and the safety of all on the road but will also help address our supply chain crisis by ensuring they aren’t spending precious time searching for somewhere to park. I’m grateful to my colleagues for supporting my bill today and hope that it will quickly be brought up for a vote on the House floor
