    The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has decided that Turkey's Digital Services Tax (DST) is unfair and discriminates against U.S. businesses, causing problems for U.S. trade. The tax targets companies based on digital services and revenue criteria, disadvantaging American companies. This conclusion came after an investigation and consultations with Turkey, during which public opinions and expert advice were considered. The USTR plans to take further actions under Section 301 of the Trade Act in response to these findings.

    Simple Explanation

    Turkey made a rule that makes it harder for big American companies to sell stuff online, and the U.S. trade group thinks that's not fair, so they plan to do something about it.

    The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is issuing a notice about final decisions made by California's Department of Transportation (Caltrans) concerning the Santa Maria River Bridge Replacement Project. This project plans to replace an existing bridge due to structural issues and includes adding features like a pedestrian and bicycle path. The public is informed that any judicial claims against these decisions must be filed by June 11, 2021. The decisions and actions are supported by several environmental and preservation laws.

    Simple Explanation

    Caltrans wants to fix a bridge because it's getting old, but if someone disagrees with their plan and wants to go to court, they need to do it by June 11, 2021, and the notice doesn't explain much about how or where to do that.
