Here is the library’s re-opening plan
More pro-Palestinian protests are breaking out on U.S. campuses. Texas state troopers on horseback are at the University of Texas at Austin campus today as the "Palestine Solidarity Committee" says it wants to establish a foot hole at the UT Austin campus. Meanwhile, police are trying to break up a similar tent protest at the University of Southern California.        The Supreme Court will consider whether Donald Trump has immunity on charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 election. The outcome could determine whether Trump faces a federal trial this year on four felony counts brought by special counsel Jack Smith, which include conspiracy to defraud the U.S. and obstruction of an official proceeding. Trump's legal team argues the former president should have absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for any official acts taken while in office.       A new report can tell you if you're still in the middle class or not, based on how much you earn. Finance site SmartAsset analyzed data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the Pew Research Center to determine the middle class salary range in all 50 states. The national middle class salary range is 49-thousand-271-dollars to 147-thousand-828-dollars.       The U.S. Supreme Court heard an abortion case for the first time since it overturned Roe v. Wade. Justices are hearing arguments in a case over whether Idaho's strict abortion restrictions conflict with a federal law requiring hospitals to provide patients emergency care. Idaho's law makes it a felony for physicians to perform most abortions except to save the life of the mother.       The national average price for a gallon of gas is holding steady. Triple A reports the average cost for a gallon of regular gas is still three-dollars-and-66-cents across the country. That's the same as it was a week ago, but 13 cents more than a month ago.       The NBA Playoffs continue on with two games tonight. In the Eastern Conference, the Miami Heat will take on the Celtics in Boston for game two of their series. In the West, the New Orleans Pelicans will square off against the Thunder in Oklahoma City for game two.
