The Biden administration announced a new plan that would speed up the hearings process for families who arrive at the U.S. border with Mexico seeking asylum, although advocates are saying this will deny immigrants of their rights.
As of Friday, both the Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security said in a statement that they will use a new “dedicated docket” process for families who arrive at the border. The goal is to significantly decrease the amount of time it takes for migrants to have their cases adjudicated.

On Thursday, Utah State University Students gathered on the quad to protest a proposed funding decrease for Aggie Blue Bikes.
The protest was planned three hours ahead of a student fee board presentation recommending a $10,000 annual revenue reduction for the program.
Students biked around the quad, made speeches on the “A” and signed a banner that would be brought to the student fee board meeting later that day. Many students brought painted signs with messages in support of the program such as, “save a horse, ride a bike” and “mobility is essential.”
Originally formed to combat Cache Valley’s poor air quality, Aggie Blue Bikes is a program with the goal of getting more people on bikes. Aggie Blue Bikes offers free bike rentals and one-on-one tutorials on bike maintenance to USU students, funded by a student fee of $2.78 each semester.

Thereâs no shortage of manufacturers working in the realm of guitars and related equipment that purport to produce âcustom madeâ goods, to work by hand, or to craft their wares the way it was done in the good old days. Tour the Froggy Bottom workshop, however, and speak to founder Michael Millard and his partner luthiers Eric Goodenough and Andy Mueller, and you really come away with a feel for what such terms should encompass.
âMost of whatâs always been referred to as âhand-madeâ in the world of guitars really stretches the meaning of the phrase,â says Millard. âI mean, âCome on, guys!â You know? You can say it all you want, but it doesnât make it true.â
