Governor Gordon Issues Executive Order Authorizing Emergency Transportation Permits for Livestock Feed and Livestock
Governor Mark Gordon (R-WY) has issued Executive Order 2026-005, authorizing emergency relief permits for vehicles transporting oversize and overweight loads of livestock feed and livestock across Wyoming. The Executive Order comes in response to widespread drought, high temperatures, low humidity, and wildfires across Wyoming during the spring and summer of 2026.These hazardous conditions have depleted pasture grass and natural forage, creating a critical livestock feed shortage that threatens the state's agricultural sector and general economy.
"Wyoming drought conditions have substantially impacted producers on-the-ground, including impacts to hay and forage production," Governor Gordon said. "This executive order will help alleviate barriers affecting Wyoming's impacted livestock operations. This necessary action will provide opportunities for our producers to continue feeding their animals during these times of hardship."
"WYDOT and the Wyoming Highway Patrol are committed to connecting Wyoming's ranchers with the supplies they need to support their families and way of life. While fees may be waived, all applicable oversize and overweight loads must still obtain the required permit and coordinate with Wyoming's Ports of Entry to ensure safe routing, verify bridge vertical clearances, and protect Wyoming's transportation infrastructure," Darin Westby, Director of the Wyoming Department of Transportation said.
The Executive Order is in effect for 30 days and can be found on the Governor's website. For questions about permits please visit here (https://whp.wyo.gov/commercial-carrier/ports-of-entry).

Nearly $5 million in grants awarded for dam safety and flood protection in Virginia
The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation today announced the awardees of the Dam Safety, Flood Prevention and Protection Assistance Fund, a grant program to support critical dam rehabilitation, flood prevention and public safety projects throughout the state.
This year, DCR has awarded a total of $4.9 million in grants to 17 recipients across the Commonwealth.These grants support a range of projects, including dam rehabilitation, engineering studies and emergency action plans.
"These investments demonstrate Virginia's commitment to strengthening community resilience and safeguarding residents from the impacts of flooding due to aging infrastructure," said DCR Director Nikki Rovner. "By supporting these projects, we are helping partners improve public safety and ensure that water management infrastructure continues to serve communities effectively for years to come."
The Dam Safety, Flood Prevention and Protection Assistance Fund provides financial assistance for the repair, rehabilitation and upgrade of dams and flood-control structures. Funded projects reduce downstream flood hazards, enhance emergency preparedness and support the continued operation of infrastructure that protects Virginia's communities.
"Dam safety and flood prevention require proactive investment and strong partnerships," said Andrea Henry, DCR Chief Engineer. "These awards will help communities advance projects that improve the condition and performance of dams, address identified safety concerns and strengthen protection against flood-related threats. The benefits of these improvements extend well beyond the dam itself to the people, businesses and infrastructure located downstream."
The Dam Safety, Flood Prevention and Protection Assistance Fund is managed by the Virginia Resource Authority on behalf of DCR. Grants are awarded through a competitive application process and approved by the Virginia Soil and Water Conservation Board. The program provides financial support to enhance public safety and aligns with Virginia's broader efforts to build more resilient and adaptive communities in the face of extreme weather events.
The Department received applications far in excess of the funds available: 111 applications totaling over $19 million in requested funding.

Shapiro Administration Opens New Round of Motorized Recreation Funding for ATV, Snowmobile Projects to Improve Pennsylvania's Outdoor Recreation Industry
Funding supports ATV, snowmobile, motorized trails and facilities projects strengthening rural economies and enhancing Pennsylvania's $20.4 billion outdoor recreation industry.
The fall grant round is open now through September 30, offering funding support to municipalities, nonprofit organizations,and for-profit entities.
The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources manages Pennsylvania's 125 state parks and 2.2 million acres of state forestlands, which are free and open to the public every day.
-
Today, the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) announced it is now accepting grant applications for snowmobile, all-terrain vehicle, motorized trails and facilities-related projects -- to further improve and strengthen the Commonwealth's $20.4 billion outdoor recreation industry and boost rural economies.
Formerly the All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) and Snowmobile Program, the Motorized Trails and Recreation Program is available for projects supporting ATVing, Snowmobiling, Off-Highway Motorcycling, and Four-Wheel Driving activities. DCNR awards these grants twice a year to municipalities and organizations to develop publicly accessible motorized trails and facilities.
"Motorized recreation continues to fuel growth in outdoor recreation and we are excited to continue to fund these great opportunities," said DCNR Secretary Cindy Adams Dunn. "The Shapiro Administration is committed to investing in motorized recreation to support local businesses and strengthen communities across the Commonwealth. We encourage organizations and municipalities to apply for this funding before the September 30 deadline."
Funding for grants comes from the ATV and Snowmobile Management Restricted Accounts for projects proposing land acquisition, planning, development, rehabilitation, maintenance, equipment purchase, or educational programs for ATV or snowmobile trails and facilities. Additional funding for grants comes from the federal Pennsylvania Recreational Trails (PRT) Program for development, rehabilitation, maintenance, equipment purchases or educational programs for all motorized trails or facilities.
The fall grant round opened on August 3 and closes on September 30. Grants are open to municipalities, non-profits, and for-profit organizations. Match requirements vary depending on the funding type.
With a few limited exceptions, all snowmobiles and ATVs in Pennsylvania must have a registration issued by DCNR. Statewide, Pennsylvania has nearly 32,000 active snowmobiles and more than 271,000 ATVs. Learn more about Pennsylvania's snowmobile and ATV riding opportunities.
From day one, the Shapiro Administration has been dedicated to supporting Pennsylvania's growing outdoor recreation industry and boosting rural economic development. Investments in ATV and snowmobile projects help ensure safe, high-quality trails and facilities that benefit communities across the Commonwealth.
In January, the Shapiro Administration awarded $1.4 million in new investments to four projects that expand and improve access to ATV facilities across Pennsylvania. The Administration has also expanded the Northcentral Regional ATV Trail to nearly 1,000 miles of connected roads and trails across Clinton, Lycoming, Potter, and Tioga counties.
DCNR recently announced the opening of 20 miles of single-track riding opportunities spanning 725 acres at Catawissa Recreation Area in Weiser State Forest. DCNR is managing development of the nearly 6,000-acre recreational area, which will include ATV trails in later phases of the project.
Pennsylvania's outdoor recreation assets are made up of 6,500 local parks -- including 125 state parks -- more than 14,000 miles of trails, and over 84,000 miles of waterways. Under the Shapiro Administration's leadership, the outdoor recreation industry has added $3.5 billion and approximately 12,000 new jobs to the Commonwealth's economy. Recent data shows the industry grew by $1.5 billion in 2024 -- reaching $20.4 billion, outpacing the national growth rate, adding 9,000 jobs to support approximately 177,000 jobs total, and generating $9.5 billion in wages across the Commonwealth.

TRENTON, New Jersey, Aug. 6 -- New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport issued the following news release on Aug. 5, 2026:

State Board of Medical Examiners Permanently Revokes License of Gloucester County Pain Management Doctor Convicted of Illegally Distributing Opioids
Attorney General Jennifer Davenport and the Division of Consumer Affairs (Division) announced today that the State Board of Medical Examiners (Board) has permanently revoked the license of a Gloucester County physician following his conviction on a federal charge of unlawful drug distribution.
Larry Pettis, a painmanagement specialist in Williamstown, New Jersey, has not practiced medicine in New Jersey since January 2025, when he entered into an Interim Consent Order voluntarily surrendering his medical license pending the resolution of criminal charges stemming from his arrest by federal agents in December 2024. Pettis subsequently pleaded guilty to unlawfully distributing a controlled substance and is scheduled for sentencing in October 2026.
The Final Consent Order permanently revoking Pettis's license resolves allegations that Pettis's conduct in the criminal matter amounted to professional misconduct, involved a crime directly related to his responsibilities as a physician, and was serious enough to warrant the permanent revocation of his medical license. Additionally, the Division's Drug Control Unit permanently revoked Pettis's registration to prescribe controlled dangerous substances in New Jersey.
"There is no place in the medical profession for doctors who abuse their prescribing privileges by unlawfully distributing controlled substances that fuel addiction, overdoses, and death," said Attorney General Davenport. "We will continue to protect the public by seeking the strongest possible sanctions against physicians who break the law and expose their patients to grave harm."
The evidence against Pettis alleged that he pre-signed prescriptions for controlled substances so that another individual, who was unable to issue such prescriptions, could issue the prescriptions when Pettis was out of the office. The evidence also showed that Pettis issued prescriptions for opioids and other controlled substances without first assessing patients, and that he allegedly altered and fabricated medical records for patients receiving controlled substances.
"New Jersey's strict prescribing rules have helped us turn the tide on the opioid epidemic in our state, but this physician repeatedly disregarded those safeguards and violated the standards expected of every medical professional," said Christopher L. Peterson, Acting Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs. "By removing this dangerous prescriber from practice, we're enhancing public safety and gaining critical traction in our fight to end the addiction crisis."
Under the terms of the Consent Order, which was filed on July 29, 2026, Pettis must immediately cease and desist from all patient contact at any location in New Jersey, and from prescribing medications and rendering medical care. He is also barred from entering the premises of his former medical practice during business hours when patients may be present. Additionally, Pettis is precluded from managing, overseeing, supervising, or influencing the practice of medicine or provision of healthcare activities, including by testifying as an expert witness or being retained as a consulting expert, in New Jersey. He also must divest himself from any current and future financial interest in, or benefit derived from, the practice of medicine in New Jersey and from charging, receiving, or sharing in any fee for professional services rendered by others.
The State was represented in this matter by Deputy Attorney General Karen Webber, under the supervision of Section Chief Doreen A. Hafner, of the Professional Boards Prosecution Section, within the Affirmative Civil Enforcement Practice Group of the Division of Law.
Individuals who believe that they have been treated in an inappropriate manner by a licensed professional can file an online complaint with the State Division of Consumer Affairs by visiting its website or by calling 1-800-242-5846 (toll free within New Jersey) or 973-504-6200.

ST. PAUL, Minnesota, Aug. 6 -- The Minnesota Department of Human Services issued the following news release:

New tool helps people with Medical Assistance prepare for federal work requirements coming in 2027
People with Medical Assistance can find out now if they will need to meet 2027 federal work reporting requirements passed in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act with a new tool from the Minnesota Department of Human Services. The tool is available through Aug. 31.
Starting Jan. 1, 2027, some adults may need to meet new work requirements to get or keep Medical Assistance health insurance.This change generally applies to adults ages 21 to 64 who do not have dependent children, are not pregnant, are not eligible for Medicare, and do not qualify for Medical Assistance based on a disability. Medical Assistance is Minnesota's Medicaid program.
Work requirements will be verified when Minnesotans apply for Medical Assistance and when they renew their coverage. Renewals will now occur twice a year - or every six months - instead of once a year for these adults.
Medical Assistance enrollees can prepare now for their 2027 renewal by reporting how they expect to meet an exemption from work requirements or how they will complete a qualifying activity. Many people may already meet the requirement or qualify for an exemption.
"Insurance supports people's overall health, and these new federal administrative barriers will make it harder for some Minnesotans to get and keep Medical Assistance," said Temporary Commissioner John Connolly. "While most Medicaid recipients already work or meet the requirements in other ways, we are encouraging people to prepare now for the challenges of more paperwork. We want all eligible Minnesotans to keep their coverage."
Find qualifying activities that meet work requirements and a list of exemptions at https://mn.gov/dhs/work-requirements.
Through Aug. 31, enrollees can use the Renewal Lookup tool at mnrenewallookup.com to report possible exemptions or qualifying activities that meet the requirements. Sharing this information will not affect current coverage, but it may make the 2027 renewal process easier with less paperwork.
Find step-by-step illustrated instructions on how to use the renewal lookup tool at https://mn.gov/dhs/work-requirements.
Medical Assistance enrollees can log into the system by providing basic information. If records indicate an enrollee must meet the new work requirement, the tool will ask if they expect to qualify for an exemption and request details. If an enrollee does not expect to meet an exemption, they will be asked if they expect to complete a qualifying activity within one of the months since their last Medical Assistance renewal. Watch a video on how to use the renewal lookup tool here.
Enrollees can still report exemptions and qualifying activities after Aug. 31; however, enrollees may need to call or visit their county, Tribe or the Minnesota Department of Human Services.
Federal work requirements are complicated. People who have Medical Assistance should study the requirements and exceptions carefully so they don't lose coverage unnecessarily.
Work requirements do not apply to people who:
* Get Medical Assistance based on a disability
* Are a parent living with their children under age 19
* Are 65 or older
* Are 20 or younger
* Tell us they are pregnant
Exemptions from work requirements include people who are:
* American Indian or Alaska Native
* Living in a household that gets Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and is subject to SNAP work rules
* Meeting work requirements for the Minnesota Family Investment Program (MFIP)
* In a drug or alcohol treatment and rehabilitation program
* Medically frail: living with a serious, complex or chronic medical condition, or getting regular therapy or treatment
* A caregiver of a disabled individual
Activities that meet work requirements include:
* Receiving income of at least $580 in one month
* Working at least 80 hours in one month at a job or in your own business
* Doing community service or volunteering at least 80 hours in one month
* Participating in a work program at least 80 hours in one month
* Attending school or an apprenticeship at least half-time
* Meeting any combination of the above for a total of 80 hours in one month
Visit mn.gov/dhs/federalchanges/work-requirements for the full list of exemptions and qualifying activities.

JUNEAU, Alaska, Aug. 6 -- The Alaska Department of Law issued the following news release:
* * *
Acting Attorney General Cori Mills Announces $400 Million Multi-State Settlement Over Generic Drug Conspiracy
(Anchorage, AK) - Acting Alaska Attorney General Cori Mills has joined a coalition of 43 states and territories announcing a $400 million settlement in principle with Sandoz Inc. to resolve allegations that the generic drug manufacturer engaged in widespread, long-running conspiracies to artificially inflate and manipulate prices, reduce competition, and unreasonably restrain trade with regardto numerous generic prescription drugs.
If approved, Sandoz Inc. will pay a total of approximately $469 million to settle the claims brought by state enforcers, including amounts paid pursuant to previous settlements with other states.
"This predatory behavior and manipulation of the market made citizens choose between physical and financial well-being" said Acting Alaska Attorney General Cori Mills. "These drugs were not overpriced on their own, and they weren't affected by the law of supply and demand. We believe the conduct was malicious, and I'm glad we came to a good agreement in principle."
The settlement will also resolve allegations that Sandoz Inc.'s past and present international affiliates, Novartis AG, Sandoz AG, and Sandoz Group AG, participated in the alleged anticompetitive conduct and fraudulently transferred assets in order to avoid liability. As part of the settlement in principle, Sandoz has agreed to meaningful injunctive terms including a series of internal reforms to ensure fair competition and compliance with antitrust laws. This settlement is contingent upon obtaining signatures from all necessary states and territories and comes as the States prepare for an anticipated trial in 2027. The States have also secured settlements in the same litigation with Glenmark, Lannett, Bausch, Apotex and Heritage totaling approximately $96.5 million.
The Connecticut Attorney General's Office is leading a coalition of nearly all states and territories in a series of antitrust cases, starting first in 2016. The cases all stem from a series of investigations built on evidence from several cooperating witnesses at the core of the different conspiracies, a massive document database of over 20 million documents, and a phone records database containing millions of call detail records and contact information for over 600 sales and pricing individuals in the generics industry. Each complaint addresses a different set of drugs and defendants and lays out an interconnected web of competing industry executives that met with each other during industry dinners, "girls' nights out," lunches, cocktail parties, golf outings and communicated via frequent telephone calls, emails and text messages that sowed the seeds for their illegal agreements. Throughout the complaints, defendants use terms like "fair share," "playing nice in the sandbox," and "responsible competitor" to describe how they unlawfully discouraged competition, raised prices and enforced an ingrained culture of collusion. Among the records obtained by the States is a two-volume notebook containing the contemporaneous notes of one of the States' cooperators that memorialized his discussions during phone calls with competitors and internal company meetings over a period of several years.
Acting Attorney General Mills is joined in securing this settlement in principle by the attorneys general of Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Northern Mariana Islands, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, U.S. Virgin Islands, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
