A bill quietly introduced this spring in the Colorado legislature to decriminalize the possession of drug paraphernalia obtained by harm reductionists has become law. As low-key as the legislation was introduced, the bill was signed into law without fanfare June 6. It garnered little to no media attention.

A California state senator, fed up with the Democratic Party’s supermajority in the Golden State’s legislature, announced she is defecting to the Republican Party. Sen. Marie Alvarado-Gil was elected in 2022 to represent California’s fourth senate district, which includes parts of the Sierra Nevada mountain range and the agrarian Central Valley. Alvarado-Gil made the party switch announcement on Thursday, after serving two years of her four year term. “I was elected to serve the public, not a political ideology,” Alvarado-Gil said in a statement. “The status quo under a supermajority Democratic rule in the legislature is simply not working for this state.” In an interview with Sacramento Bee opinion columnist Marcos Bretón, Alvarado-Gil said the “last straw” was the attempt to pass reforms to Proposition 47—a decade-old ballot initiative that downgraded some property crimes like shoplifting, forgery, and writing bad checks to misdemeanors.

Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts said he would delay the publication of Dawn’s Early Light: Taking Back Washington to Save America—the book associated with the organization’s conservative policy agenda known as Project 2025, according to a report. “There’s a time for writing, reading, and book tours—and a time to put down the books and go fight like hell to take back our country,” Roberts told RealClearPolitics, which first reported the delay. “That’s why I’ve chosen to move my book’s publication and promotion to after the election.” Roberts’ book was originally slated to release on Sept. 24, according to publisher HarperCollins....

Republicans are divided over how aggressively to tackle the deficit, including reforms to Medicare and Social Security, if they regain control of Washington next year, when the federal debt is projected to hit $36 trillion. Former President Trump is calling for $4 trillion to $6 trillion in tax cuts over 10 years if he is elected to another term, and the Congressional Budget Office projects that even without new tax cuts, the debt will grow by more than $20 trillion over the next decade.
