"If you take away our health, you take away our wealth," Sanchez, a community planning manager at the Southeast Environmental Task Force, told Insider. The first-of-its-kind settlement with HUD could be a model for environmental justice advocates in other cities. If the city didn't agree to address environmental harms, it risked losing hundreds of millions of dollars in federal housing money. "Now all levels of city government have to listen to us and develop policies that are protective of public health." Sanchez said the case underscored the importance of updating city policies, because administrations come and go.

☆ Speaker Standoff Leaves House Stuck in Neutral

The seat of the U.S. House speaker stands empty as the House of Representatives continues voting for new speaker. WASHINGTON—The historic spectacle of Kevin McCarthy losing six straight ballots for speaker this week has left the House’s newly elected members confused and in limbo—unable to be sworn in to office until the standoff ends, much less set rules for the chamber, legislate or conduct investigations and oversight.

The House adjourned Wednesday night with the top job still unfilled, pushing the uncertainty into Thursday.
