Lawmakers demand review of Treasury Department’s oversight of shrimp imports | Louisiana
SUMMARY: House Committee Chairman James Comer and Representatives Clay Higgins and Troy Nehls are urging the U.S. Government Accountability Office to investigate the Treasury Department’s compliance with laws protecting American industries, particularly the shrimping sector, from foreign competition. They express concerns that since 2004, U.S. representatives in international financial institutions have predominantly supported foreign projects that harm U.S. industries, including shrimp. The legislators cite that U.S. shrimp markets face significant competition from imports, particularly from India, which raises ethical issues like forced labor and environmental degradation on shrimp farms. They seek assurance that U.S. interests are adequately safeguarded.

The oldest known Kentucky WWII Veteran reflects on life, D-Day
SUMMARY: Oakley Hacker, believed to be the oldest World War II veteran in Kentucky, recently celebrated his 108th birthday. Born on October 2, 1916, and serving in the U.S. Navy for nearly five years, Hacker achieved the rank of Gunners Mate Second Class and played a crucial role in the D-Day invasion, overseeing gunnery support. After returning home, he worked various jobs until retiring at 92 due to declining eyesight. Now residing at the Paul E. Patton Eastern Kentucky Veteran Center, Hacker is visited frequently by his daughter, who cherishes their memories together. He remains proud of his service and family, which includes grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
You’ve probably heard the saying “Age is just a number,” but imagine being over 100 years old—108 to be exact.
