Where people are mourning…

Louisville, KY. Yesterday, a mass shooting at a bank left at least five people dead and injured nine others — including two officers. This is the 15th mass killing this year, and it comes just two weeks after an attack at a Christian school in Nashville, TN. Authorities said the gunman livestreamed the attack and died in a shootout with police. The motive is unclear, but officials believe the gunman was a bank employee and was reportedly struggling with his mental health. Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY) shared that some of the victims were “close” friends and called on people to “reach out and get the help that they need.” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) thanked police for their bravery and sent “prayers to the victims, their families, and the city of Louisville.” In a tweet, President Biden urged Congress to pass gun reform, adding “too many Americans are paying for the price of inaction with their lives.”

Who’s ready to get back to work…

Rep. Justin Jones (D-Nashville). Yesterday, he was sworn back into the Tennessee legislature after Nashville’s Metro Council reappointed him on an interim basis. The move comes less than a week after the GOP-led state House gave Jones and Justin Pearson — both young, Black, and Democratic lawmakers — the boot for participating in a gun control demonstration and breaking House rules. The expulsions sparked outrage and put the two lawmakers in the national spotlight. Now, Jones is back in office, saying “no unjust decision will stand.” Pearson could also be reappointed as early as tomorrow. The state Republican House speaker had said the chamber would honor the reappointments.

Who’s taking a trip…

President Biden. Today, he’s heading to Belfast, Northern Ireland, where he will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement. The deal ended decades of violence in Northern Ireland. The last US president to visit Belfast was former President Obama in 2013. Once Biden's visit wraps up in Northern Ireland, he'll head on to Dublin, Ireland for an official visit.

Where some folks are getting marked absent…

Rutgers University. Yesterday, the New Jersey school’s faculty members went on strike — reportedly the first in the university's history. The unions representing the employees said Rutgers isn’t working with them to renegotiate contracts and better pay. The university said that none of the nearly 67,000 students are being affected by the strike.
