TXGLO and TPPF Submit Comments to U.S. Department of Interior on Regulatory Changes Related to the Golden-Cheeked Warbler
The Texas General Land Office (TXGLO) and the Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF) have submitted a comment regarding the Golden-Cheeked Warbler in response to a Regulatory Reform Request for Information from the U.S. Department of the Interior. The comment urges the Department of the Interior to completely delist the Warbler from the Endangered Species Act.
The Trump Administrationhas announced several regulatory reform priorities, including to eliminate regulations that are outdated or impede infrastructure development, economic development, energy production, and land use. Since 1990, the Warbler's listing under the Endangered Species Act has imposed costly mitigation measures and hindered productive land uses throughout Central Texas. Yet several scientific studies have shown that the Warbler population is thriving. The Warbler population is 19 times larger than the 1990 population estimate, and state-level protections will ensure the continued preservation of Warbler habitat.
Last year, TXGLO succeeded in a lawsuit against the Department of the Interior. The court's decision required the Department to reevaluate the Warbler's status. In January, the Department recommended downlisting the Warbler from endangered to threatened. While this is a step in the right direction, listing as a threatened species still imposes costly compliance and mitigation measures. This comment urges the Department to completely delist the Warbler.
"For too long, Texas property owners' hands have been tied regarding making decisions on their own land because of an unsupported ESA listing of the Golden-Cheeked Warbler," said Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham. "There has been significant evidence presented, including a 2024 court ruling that determined the federal government misapplied the law multiple times, which shows that listing the Warbler does not meet the requirements set forth in the ESA. Based on the scientific evidence presented, I urge the U.S. Department of the Interior to completely delist the Warbler and allow Texans to reclaim their voices when it comes to decisions about their land."
"It took over ten years of litigation to spur the Department of the Interior to agree that there is substantial evidence to engage in a detailed review of whether the Warbler should be delisted," said TPPF senior attorney Ted Hadzi-Antich. "Now, pursuant to a recent executive order of President Trump, the Department has finally asked for comments regarding whether any of its regulatory efforts are impeding economic or energy development, and we have provided details setting forth precisely how the ESA's regulation of the Warbler is a prime example of unnecessary and harmful government intervention in the economic life of the nation."
TPPF attorney Eric Heigis added, "Delisting the Warbler is not only the right move to restore property rights, the Endangered Species Act's guidelines require delisting."

Thurgood Marshall College Fund and Savings Collaborative launch groundbreaking National Financial Resilience Program at HBCUs in honor of Juneteenth
In commemoration of Juneteenth, the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) and the Savings Collaborative today announced an ambitious new partnership to launch a comprehensive National Financial Resilience Program at the nation's public historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs). This groundbreaking initiative builds on initial research findings thatrevealed both the financial challenges and aspirations of HBCU students, positioning this collaboration as a critical step toward achieving economic justice and building generational wealth.
The collaboration builds on the foundation of research and program development by TMCF's Dr. N. Joyce Payne Research Center and the Savings Collaborative. In 2024, the partners launched a financial well-being course at TMCF's DevCon, engaging over 500 students from 40 HBCUs who demonstrated foundational financial skills and knowledge, as well as a commitment to long-term economic empowerment. Focus groups with students yielded valuable insights that now inform the priorities of the National Financial Resilience Program.
"This Juneteenth, we celebrate not just freedom from the past, but our commitment to building economic freedom for the future," Dr. N. Joyce Payne, founder of TMCF, said. "Our research has shown that HBCU students are already demonstrating remarkable financial resilience, but they need targeted support and resources to fully realize their potential for building generational wealth. This partnership represents a transformative opportunity to address the systemic barriers that have historically limited economic advancement in our communities."
The initiative addresses critical findings from the organizations' preliminary research, which revealed that over two-thirds of HBCU students face significant financial challenges, with education, housing and transportation costs serving as primary stressors. Despite these challenges, the research also highlighted students' strong commitment to building savings and achieving financial stability.
Barbara Freeman, founder and CEO of the Savings Collaborative, emphasized the program's potential for long-term impact: "Financial resilience isn't just about managing money, it's about creating pathways to opportunity and breaking cycles of economic inequality. HBCU students represent some of our nation's most talented and determined future leaders, and this partnership ensures they have the tools and support needed to achieve their financial goals and create lasting wealth for their families and communities."
The National Financial Resilience Program will feature several key components:
* Comprehensive financial education curriculum: Evidence-based programming covering budgeting, savings, credit management, and investment strategies
* Peer-to-peer learning networks: Student-led discussion groups and mentorship opportunities
* Career and entrepreneurship support: Resources connecting financial wellness to career development and business creation
* Policy advocacy: Research-informed initiatives to address systemic barriers to financial security
* Technology integration: Digital tools and platforms to enhance accessibility and engagement
The program will initially launch at select TMCF member institutions before expanding nationwide. The collaboration represents a significant investment in the economic futures of HBCU students, aligning with both organizations' missions to create sustainable, impactful solutions for historically underserved communities.

Louisiana Legislature Puts the REINS on Unelected Bureaucrats
The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) applauds Senator Reese and the Louisiana legislature for championing much-needed transparency and accountability through Louisiana's passage of a REINS-style policy. This commonsense legislation ensures that the people, not unelected bureaucrats, have a say in the rules that affect their daily lives. Unchecked rulemaking and bureaucratic spending have harmed families,small businesses, and local communities for too long. REINS is a decisive step toward restoring balance between the legislative and executive branches and returning power to where it belongs: the people's elected representatives.
"REINS is a bold step toward restoring proper representative government in Louisiana," said Tarren Bragdon, President and CEO of the Foundation for Government Accountability. "Thanks to Senator Reese's leadership, Louisianans--not unelected bureaucrats--will once again be at the center of major decisions that impact their lives. This is what a responsive, accountable government looks like."
"All too often, bureaucrats think they run the show--whether it's Washington or Baton Rouge. And the unsettling reality is, they frequently do," continued Bragdon. "REINS is the lever that loosens the grip the administrative state has on our lives and our wallets. It restores the proper checks and balances that protect liberty and individual rights. Senator Reese's bold leadership puts the power of governance back where it belongs: with the people of Louisiana."
The Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA) is a non-profit, multi-state think tank that promotes public policy solutions to create opportunities for every American to experience the American Dream. To learn more, visit TheFGA.org.

WLF Urges Florida Supreme Court To Reinforce Trial Court's Gatekeeping Role For Pleading Punitive Damages

(Washington, DC)--WashingtonLegal Foundation (WLF) today filed an amicus curiae brief with the Florida Supreme Court, urging it to insist on a high evidentiary threshold for trial judges considering amendments to add punitive damages claims. WLF's brief was prepared with pro bono assistance from Frank Cruz-Alvarez and David M. Menichetti of Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP.
The appeal arises from a decade-long feud between billionaires Isaac "Ike" Perlmutter, former Marvel Entertainment Chairman, and Harold Peerenboom, founder of Mandrake Management, a leading Canadian executive-search firm. When the Perlmutters sought to amend their counterclaims to include punitive damages caused by intentional misconduct by Peerenboom and his associates, the trial court allowed the amendment.
But the Fourth District Court of Appeal reversed, deciding that the Perlmutters' evidence was too "ambiguous" and insufficient to show specific intent to engage in wrongful conduct. The appeals court certified the issue as one of "great public importance," prompting the Florida Supreme Court to take up the case.
In its amicus brief urging the court to affirm a heightened standard for adding punitive damages claims, WLF argued that such a standard protects defendants from overly broad discovery, like financial-worth inquiries, until a claim is substantiated. To that end, WLF urged the Court to reject petitioners' contention that trial courts need consider only one side of the story--the claimant's side--before making this determination. That would virtually guarantee that defendants are subjected to meritless claims for punitive damages that would never have survived had the trial court been able to consider all record evidence. As WLF brief shows, that approach is inconsistent with Florida law and with basic notions of due process.

Southeastern Legal Foundation releases statement on Supreme Court Skrmetti decision
Southeastern Legal Foundation released the following statement from President Kimberly Hermann today on the Supreme Court's ruling in United States v. Skrmetti, where the Supreme Court upheld Tennessee's ban on gender transition surgeries for minors:
"The Supreme Court's ruling today in the United States v. Skrmetti case is a tremendous victory for protecting minor children from harmful pharmaceuticalsthat sterilize them and surgeries that mutilate their genitals all in the name of 'gender affirming care.'
Gender dysphoria is the only mental health disorder that some therapists decided to 'affirm' by giving children surgeries and life-long medications as a 'solution' for their struggle.
We are thankful that the Supreme Court included in their ruling today that, 'a report commissioned by England's National Health Service (NHS England) characterized the evidence concerning the use of puberty blockers and hormones to treat transgender minors as 'remarkably weak.'
This should help protect even more minors struggling through puberty from life-altering mutilations that are not clinically proven to help them.
Although this victory is critical, the fight is far from over. Parents must continue to stay diligent against attacks on their children. It will unfortunately take many more lawsuits by brave parents and children to stop woke ideologies from destroying our country."

Rep. Gabe Vasquez Rallies Outdoor Advocates to Defend Public Lands at OMDP Hike and Press Conference
Today, U.S. Representative Gabe Vasquez (NM-02) joined conservation advocates, local leaders, and community members at the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument (OMDP) to rally against renewed efforts to sell off federal public lands. The event featured a press conference and community hike, highlighting the cultural, economic, and environmental importance ofpublic lands to southern New Mexico.
The event comes amidst a revived push by Senate Republicans to advance one of the most extreme public land sell-off proposals in recent history of over 3.3 million acres. While these provisions were blocked in the House thanks to Rep. Vasquez's leadership in the bipartisan Public Lands Caucus, they have resurfaced in the Senate's version of the budget reconciliation bill, reigniting concern across the West.
WATCH: REP. VASQUEZ DELIVERS REMARKS AT PROTECT PUBLIC LANDS PRESS CONFERENCE (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1g051y5_18hiUKojXCWNUCm3wzvsu-n5c/view?usp=sharing)
"Standing here at Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks, I'm reminded that what's at stake isn't just this monument--it's the future of millions of acres of public lands across New Mexico and the West that could be sold off because of Republican proposals in Congress," said Vasquez. "These lands are part of our identity. They support local jobs, protect sacred Tribal sites, and give our kids a chance to connect with the outdoors. Our public lands are not for sale. Period."
"There are a number of reasons why keeping OMDP intact and untouched is so important. Not only are conservation and preservation instrumental in this argument, but in Las Cruces, our community has embraced this monument because of the hiking and camping, the outdoor recreation opportunities, and so much more," said Carrie Hamblen, CEO and President of the Las Cruces Green Chamber of Commerce and New Mexico State Senator. "Our local businesses rely on the tourism that brings visitors into our stores and restaurants and creates a memorable experience for all to enjoy. Our monument isn't for sale, and our community has proven to this administration that it should be left alone."
"Our community in Southern New Mexico understands that our landscape brings us together. These lands hold so much more than what can be extracted or profited from them. They hold our stories, they are homes to essential wildlife, they improve the health of our communities," said Patrick Nolan, Executive Director of Friends of Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks. "The value of our lands cannot be summed up by what can be extracted from them. We hope Congress, with the help of Representative Vasquez, understands that the value of our lands cannot be summed up by what can be extracted from them. That these lands hold value as they are protected and conserved for generations to come."
"New Mexico Wild and our thousands of members object in the strongest possible terms to any attempts to shrink, eliminate, or remove protections for Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks or any other national monument. These monuments were created as a result of local communities working for years to protect these one of a kind places," said Mark Allison, Executive Director of New Mexico Wild. "Nearly 90% of New Mexicans -- people of all political persuasions -- support keeping our monuments intact. They are not merely lines on a map but critical ecological havens, sacred cultural sites, and irreplaceable natural treasures that help define our identity. Public lands are the backdrop to our state's outdoor heritage and way of life. Plans to sell off our children's inheritance to benefit connected billionaires is a theft of historic proportions and should make all Americans ashamed and outraged."
"To New Mexicans public lands aren't some line item on a budget spreadsheet. Public lands are our lifeblood. Wild, public places and the wild things that inhabit those places are integral to the culture, traditions and lifestyle of countless people across the West," said Jesse Duebel, Executive Director of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation. "Public lands are not just about outdoor recreation and all the health and economic benefits associated with that. These places house our identity. It's where we go to obtain our food, the firewood to heat our homes, and the solace we need to overcome the challenges of modern society. Public lands are our gym, our church and our grocery store. In short, our public lands are not for sale, they are in our DNA."
"The broad scheme to sell off our public lands, national heritage, and outdoor access to the wealthy and well-connected will block access to regular Americans for hiking, camping, hunting, and fishing. It also willfully ignores or disrespects the Indigenous, Hispano, and local communities who rely on these lands for cultural, spiritual, economic, and recreational reasons, said Romir Lahiri, Associate Program Director for Conservation Lands Foundation. "These lands are part of what makes New Mexico so special. New Mexico's national monuments, including Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks and Rio Grande del Norte, exist because the people demanded it. From local business owners and family campers to mountain guides and outdoor adventurers, the majority--regardless of political affiliation--want these treasured natural places protected and accessible for generations to come."
"Our public lands are living landscapes. Any effort to weaken their protections threaten the health, heritage, and well-being of their connected communities and stand in direct opposition to the voices of New Mexicans. Despite overwhelming support for our public lands, the Trump Administration is systematically degrading the laws and agencies that manage these irreplaceable places and jeopardizing the legal duty to engage meaningfully with Tribal leadership," said Maude Dinan, New Mexico Program Manager for the National Parks Conservation Association. "Prioritizing oil and gas drilling or mining, erasing national monuments, or transferring public lands to states is short-sighted and will cause irrevocable harm to our landscapes and people."
Earlier this year, Vasquez launched the bipartisan Public Lands Caucus alongside Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-MT-01) to bring together lawmakers from both parties who support the protection of public lands. The caucus has quickly become a driving force behind efforts to conserve our public lands and fight for the outdoor recreation economy.
In addition to fighting against this latest effort to sell public lands in order to pay for tax breaks for billionaires, Vasquez also joined a letter earlier this year to the administration urging the Department of Interior to leave OMDP intact, highlighting its significant landscapes, cultural resources and economic impact.
As the reconciliation package and other efforts to sell off public lands move forward, Vasquez pledged to continue building bipartisan support for protecting public lands for future generations.

Carnegie Foundation launches "Future of High School Network" with 24 innovative school systems across the country.
*
Today, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching announced the launch of the Future of High School Network (FHS Network), a new initiative designed to catalyze learning, knowledge and impact to support a 'new architecture' for high school nationwide. The FHSNetwork brings together 24 school systems serving approximately 90,000 students, all committed to creating high schools that prepare students for success beyond graduation.
"For more than a century, the Carnegie Unit has defined the structure of American high schools with the conflation of seat time and learning," said Dr. Timothy Knowles, President of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. "Today, we're partnering with a fearless group of forward-leaning school systems across the country to imagine and instantiate education without the constraints of the Carnegie Unit. The Future of High School Network is about understanding and growing new models for the American high school--that set ambitious goals for students, offer meaningful, rigorous and engaging learning experiences, and use improved tools to measure and accelerate student progress."
This effort is supported by leading national institutions, including the XQ Institute, William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Walton Family Foundation, the Stuart Foundation, and Carnegie Corporation of New York as well as partners at the Educational Testing Service (ETS). Together, the network members will work to modernize current outdated systems and scale competency-based high school models designed to accelerate student engagement, achievement and success in postsecondary education and work.
The Network will also serve as a test bed to inform the Carnegie Foundation's forthcoming National Research and Development Agenda--a comprehensive effort to define the research and development priorities needed to advance effective high school transformation across the country. Ongoing insights from participating systems will help identify the conditions necessary for innovative models to take root, sustain and scale in high schools nationwide.
"Too many high schools were built for a world that no longer exists," said Diego Arambula, Vice President for Educational Transformation, Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching." This Network, in tandem with our National Research and Development Agenda, will focus on building and refining what comes next, together with communities, educators, and most importantly, students."
The inaugural network represents leaders from public school districts and charter school networks across urban, suburban, and rural regions of the country:
