utting a Band-Aid on things, it's all OK. But, no. What about our feelings? What about those people who died trying to put Puerto Rico back (together) again? People needed (electricity) because they had oxygen (machines). They were ill; they had cancer. They had other issues, health-wise. They needed the government, and the government failed them."She shared Ruiz's story, she said, so "at least someone will know he existed." 4726

The IRS announced this week it has extended the deadline for those who did not file a tax return the last two years to request a ,200 stimulus check. The deadline, which was previously slated for October 15, will now be on November 21.The economic stimulus checks, which millions of Americans received during the spring and early summer, is for most American adults earning less than ,000 a year. The IRS paid the checks out to those who either file an annual tax return or receive government benefits. American adults who are not considered a dependent, such as young adults living at home, and do not file a tax return are required to submit a form to the IRS. The form is available on the IRS¡¯ website."We took this step to provide more time for those who have not yet received a payment to register to get their money, including those in low-income and underserved communities," said IRS Commissioner Chuck Rettig. "The IRS is deeply involved in processing and programming that overlaps filing seasons. Any further extension beyond November would adversely impact our work on the 2020 and 2021 filing seasons. The Non-Filers portal has been available since the spring and has been used successfully by many millions of Americans."As a reminder, here is who is eligible for a stimulus check:,400 ¨C Couples earning less than 0,000 a year (couples earning 0,000 - 8,000 will receive a prorated check).,200 ¨C Individuals earning less than ,000 a year (individuals earning ,000 - ,000 will receive a prorated check).,200 ¨C Heads of households earning less than 2,500 (heads of households earning 2,500 - 6,000 will receive a prorated check).0 - Each dependent child age 16 or under as of Dec. 31, 2019 (for qualifying individuals and couples). 1791

The Keystone State is living up to its name, as potentially the linchpin in who becomes America¡¯s next president.¡°Their processes just were never anticipating such an influx,¡± said Matthew Weil, with the Bipartisan Policy Center.It¡¯s an influx of early absentee and mail-in ballots, in numbers Pennsylvania has never dealt with before. The state received about 2.5 million mail-in ballots, 10 times the number they had in 2016. Yet, counting all of the state¡¯s ballots will take a while.Watch Gov. Tom Wolf provide an update about the state's election results:¡°In some of the biggest jurisdictions--Philadelphia, Pittsburgh--they just didn't have the experience counting those quickly,¡± Weil said. ¡°And the fact that the legislature did not give them time before Election Day to count those, even knowing that this was coming, means that most likely we're not going to have great results until Friday.¡±Among the areas to watch in Pennsylvania: the suburban counties around the state¡¯s two biggest cities, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. That includes Bucks County, which lies just north of Philadelphia.¡°Counting the ballots is really an uncertain science for us,¡± said Bob Harvie, Bucks County Board of Elections Chairman.Those mail-in ballots also take longer to count.¡°There are two envelopes we have to open: the outside envelope and the secrecy envelope,¡± Harvie said. ¡°So, it's really double the work.¡±Here in Bucks County alone, they sent out 200,000 mail-in ballots for this election. That¡¯s 10 times the number they did in 2016. And in Bucks County, like everywhere else across Pennsylvania, ballots postmarked on Election Day can still be counted if they¡¯re received through Friday. However, elections officials are preparing for the possibility of a legal challenge involving those ballots.¡°We do know that there's very likely to be a legal challenge to that claiming that that's not constitutional,¡± Harvie said. ¡°So, we are going to start segregating any mail we get.¡±In the end, though, officials in Pennsylvania hope the 2020 election keeps voters confident in the election system.¡°The people you see here working, you know these are not political appointees,¡± Harvie said. ¡°They¡¯re county employees, they¡¯re government employees, and so, really, they're they've committed themselves to giving people a fair, accurate, safe election.¡±It¡¯s an election that doesn¡¯t appear to be over just yet. 2411

The pathway to higher education has never been without barriers. But trying to break through them during a pandemic can crack an already fragile foundation."I'm doing everything for my family so they feel proud of me and I can keep going forward and get a good job, so I don't end up in the fields," said 19-year-old Maria Salvador, who spoke in Spanish during the interview, which was later translated into English.Salvador is a first-generation college student attending Oxnard College in Ventura County, California. Born in the central coast of California, Salvador's parents came to the United States from Oaxaca, Mexico, and work in the fields. While long hours can reap little reward for migrant farmworkers, many work in hopes to pass down a better life for their children."They always tell me we have to keep studying, we have to keep learning and keep growing so that we can get a good job, so that we don't suffer the way they suffered," said Salvador.But studying was made more difficult by the lack of access to a laptop and the internet during her final year of high school. While the schools gave Salvador and her brothers and sisters hotspots, she said they often didn't work."It was always hard, because since I would use my mom's cell phone, sometimes she would take it with her and sometimes I couldn't do my homework," the teen said.And when the pandemic derailed the final months of her high school experience, Salvador and her sister worked in the fields to help their family."With the whole pandemic came a lot of financial hardships for families, where there wasn't before," said Sonya Zapien-Torres, the Tequio Youth Coordinator.Zapien-Torres works to get these students from the fields to college."Help them navigate this system because a lot of them are first-generation. They may not understand what are the requirements to get to graduate high school, you know, what classes do I need to take?" said Zapien Torres.She says virtual learning has made the process a lot harder."I would definitely want to be on campus. I wish the pandemic would end and everybody could get back to normal and go back to class. I wouldn't be having all of these problems with my studying. It's hard as it is," said Salvador. Heading into her first week of college, Salvador still did not have her own laptop and reliable internet, but the organization Mixteco Ind¨ªgena Community Organizing Project (MICOP) was able to secure her a device. Mixteco leaders say donations to the organization help to fulfill these needs. It's an issue not unique to just Salvador and made even more complicated with a surge in demand for laptops.Around the country, the technology supply chain is struggling to keep up with the boom in demand. Research company NPD Group reports notebook computer sales grew 50 percent this summer.Around the country, schools and families are dealing with shipping delays, limited selections, and higher-than-usual costs."Our students are not only falling behind but then, they're getting graded for not showing up to these virtual classes where it's really not even up to them," said Zapien-Torres.Oxnard College serves a population of 60 percent first-generation students. In a survey, they found 20 percent of respondents don't have access to the internet, computers, or basic software programs. Despite challenges, they've been able to fulfill every laptop request.Organizations like Mixteco are working to keep vulnerable students on the path to higher education."They see the struggles of their families; working in the field is not something they want to do. They know by personal experience the hard labor of working in the fields, so they want to, and they aspire to grow from that," said Zapien-Torres. While the job of advocates has grown more complicated, their efforts may matter more now than ever before. 3847

The NFL is committing 0 million over 10 years to social justice initiatives, targeting what it calls ¡°systemic racism¡± and supporting ¡°the battle against the ongoing and historic injustices faced by African Americans.¡±The league, which has raised million in donations through its Inspire Change program, announced the additional 6 million commitment Thursday. It plans to ¡°work collaboratively with NFL players to support programs to address criminal justice reform, police reforms, and economic and educational advancement.¡±Less than a week ago, Commissioner Roger Goodell denounced racism in a video prompted greatly by a players¡¯ video seeking NFL action.¡°I am listening, and I will be reaching out to players who have raised their voices and others on how we can improve and go forward for a better and more united NFL family,¡± he said.The players want to see definitive action, of course. There has been increasing distrust of the NFL since San Francisco quarterback Colin Kaepernick and others began kneeling during the national anthem in 2016 to protest social injustice and police brutality. The message was misconstrued by the league and many team owners as anti-military and anti-flag. Goodell admitted as much in his video, though never mentioning Kaepernick, who has not found an NFL job the last three seasons.That distrust was expressed Wednesday by 49ers star cornerback Richard Sherman.¡°They¡¯ve tried their best to throw money behind it for a long time,¡± he said. ¡°It takes more than that. It takes you literally calling out bigotry and being motivated. It¡¯s not just pleading. It¡¯s being consistent year in and year out that you¡¯re combating this issue and that this is a problem that needs to change. And it¡¯s not just this year, not just 2016, not just 2017, but ¡®Black Lives Matter.¡¯ They have to matter forever.¡±The Players Coalition was established in 2017 to work for social justice, growing out of the Kaepernick-inspired protests and pledging to improve police/community relations, champion criminal justice reform, and promote education and economic advancement in communities across the nation.Earlier this week, the coalition collected more than 1,400 signatures from active and retired athletes, coaches and executives from a variety of sports and presented them to Congress this week in support of a bill seeking to eliminate qualified immunity regarding police brutality. That bill was introduced in response to the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor while in police custody.Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins, a co-founder of the Players Coalition, spoke on CBS about the movement to defund police:¡°It doesn¡¯t mean we eradicate police completely. We¡¯ve got 10 million kids going to schools with police officers in them and no social workers. Three million that have got police in their schools and no nurses. Six million with police in their schools but no psychologists. Yet we want to invest in putting more police on the streets and over-policing that we know does not make our communities safer.¡°We¡¯d rather see that money go to programs that help with entrepreneurship, that help with our schooling, that help with black people who have been disproportionately affected by COVID.¡±Some of the programs the NFL is targeting will deal with those issues, according to Anna Isaacson, the league¡¯s senior vice president of social responsibility.¡°What this really is is a deeper and expanded commitment form the league and owners to say we are in this for the long haul,¡± she said. ¡°It¡¯s probably a deeper clarification on what we are meaning and focusing on. It has always been there, that focus, but obviously with current events and even before the last two weeks, conversations with the players have been on really focusing on this. Recent events solidified this has to be a key focus for us.¡±Isaacson mentions Big Brothers and Big Sisters, and Metro Peace Academy in Chicago as two organizations the league works with.¡°With Big Brothers and Big Sisters, we fund a program to bridge the gap in communication and understanding,¡± he said. ¡°The program is pairing law enforcement officers with specific under-served youth, and those one-on-one relationships are to both the `Big¡¯ and the `Little,¡ä as they call them, meant as a way to bridge whatever gaps exist. Building one-on-one relationships where trust is built and knowledge gained is essential.¡°In Chicago, we funded a program that does training with the community in how to work with their local police department and training with police on how to work with the community. That program is trying to reach the most at-risk youth and adults.¡°There are many such programs across the country that have started this work and are doing incredible work on the ground. We are looking for programs with a proven model and good track record and that has boots on the ground and treating people directly. National in scale, but that is truly the grass roots.¡°We¡¯re making sure a lot of our grants are reaching down into the communities they serve, people to people and person to person.¡±___More AP NFL: https://apnews.com/NFL and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL 5156
