☆ Required time off work to vote: Here are the states where employers must give you time off
  + stars: | 2024-10-25 | by ( Jeanne Sahadi | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
Here’s what you need to know:Which states have voting leave laws? Among states with voting leave laws, they most typically require employers to allow either one, two or three hours off. Most of the states requiring employers to permit voting leave also require that this time be paid. For instance, the leave laws in New York and California require you to give at least two days’ notice. Even if you live in a state without a voting leave law, your company may voluntarily permit time during working hours to vote.

Read previewUS bases and aircraft in the Pacific are facing intense threat from Chinese missiles, and the Pentagon isn't doing enough to counter that challenge, according to American lawmakers. In a Wednesday letter to Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall and Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro, 13 members of Congress pointed out glaring vulnerabilities in the Pacific region and demanded "immediate changes."

Notably, none of the US shelters were in Guam — home to Andersen Air Force Base which routinely hosts American bombers.

☆ Federal Appeals Court Further Limits Abortion Access on Guam
  + stars: | 2023-08-02 | by ( David W. Chen | More About David W. Chen | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +3 min
Though abortion is legal in Guam up to 13 weeks of pregnancy, and later in certain cases, the last doctor who performed abortions left the island in 2018. BackgroundAbortion has long been a taboo topic on the culturally conservative island where about 80 percent of the inhabitants are Catholic. A federal court ruled that the ban was unconstitutional and blocked the territorial government from enforcing it, but the attorney general is fighting to try to revive the ban. That law was then blocked by a federal judge, allowing the doctors to send abortion pills. But with the momentum of the Supreme Court decision last year that overturned the national right to abortion, the Guam attorney general’s office said the injunction should be lifted.

☆ In Guam, a US territory, the last doctor who performed abortions left in 2018. The closest option is an 8-hour flight to Hawaii.

While abortion is legal in the US territory of Guam, it can be almost impossible to get. There are no doctors left on the island to perform abortions, so patients rely on telemedicine. If a pregnant person can't use abortion pills, their next best option is an 8-hour flight to Hawaii. Just two doctors are licensed and willing to provide care in Guam, though they are both based in Hawaii, The Times reported. On the island, anti-abortion sentiment persists among citizens, many of whom are Catholic, and within the local government, The Times reported.

☆ The US Air Force's big plan to spread out and take on China may actually make things easier for Beijing
  + stars: | 2023-03-01 | by ( Michael Peck | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +6 min
For the Air Force, a key part of the plan is to spread jets and airmen across bases in the Pacific. The problem is that the Air Force would need a logistical system that could sustain numerous bases across a wide area.

Air Force officials have acknowledged the complexity of defending dispersed forces.
