The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing new rules for the use of certain chemical substances under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). These rules, known as Significant New Use Rules (SNURs), require entities to notify EPA at least 90 days before starting activities considered significant new uses of these chemicals. The EPA will then assess these uses for potential risks. The proposed rules aim to ensure new chemical substances are safely manufactured and processed, protecting human health and the environment.

In a proclamation by President Donald J. Trump, he declared that the situation at the U.S. southern border is an "invasion" under the U.S. Constitution. As a response, he has ordered the temporary suspension of entry for certain aliens who cross the southern border, due to concerns over public health, safety, and national security. The proclamation cites the President's authority under the Immigration and Nationality Act and the Constitution to deny entry and impose restrictions on individuals who do not meet specific criteria. This action aims to address the challenges posed by the influx of illegal aliens and protect the interests of the United States.
