16 AGs call on DHS to verify citizenship information of registered voters | National
SUMMARY: Sixteen attorneys general, led by Ohio AG Dave Yost, urged DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to provide voter registration information to states, expressing concerns over voter registration verification ahead of national elections. They argue that the right to vote is exclusive to U.S. citizens and that federal law mandates coordination with states to confirm voter identities. The AGs highlighted examples of states, including Texas, removing noncitizens from voter rolls and seeking verification assistance from DHS. They criticized DHS for inadequate responses and demanded a plan by October 17 to address verification requests, emphasizing the importance of election integrity as voting approaches.

Wildfire risk in Arkansas continues to rise
SUMMARY: Several wildfires are currently burning across the state due to ongoing dry conditions. Crews have already responded to three fires this morning, including one near Mount Ida in the Ouachita National Forest. Emergency Director Robert Murphy reports that 115 wildfires have affected over 1,200 acres in recent weeks, emphasizing the importance of fire prevention. With over half the state under a burn ban, he advises limiting activities that could spark fires and keeping fire safety equipment handy.
