WAUWATOSA, Wis. — A 3-year-old in Wisconsin can see for the first time thanks to a new procedure.  McKinley Sovey is the youngest person to undergo this type of gene therapy. Her parents Parker and Julie Sovey have been watching her progress."There was that moment when she did look at me for the first time," said Julie. "I was like I think this is working. I can't even really explain it.  She's 3 years old and she looks at mom for the first time. It was a really really cool moment and it was the moment I was waiting for."McKinley was born practically blind. The most she could see was the contrast of light. When she was a year and a half, doctors discovered she inherited a retinal disease.  "Six months after that FDA approval, and then less than a year after that she's having the procedure, so it's been like rapid fire," Parker said. Dr. Stephen Russell works in the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at the University of Iowa Hospital. He performed both of McKinley's eye surgeries with the gene therapy earlier this month.  "Complicated drug because it has multiple parts to the drug and complicated surgery because to make sure we delivered the drug to the appropriate tissues," said Russell.Russell said he is basically forcing DNA into the right cell."We had to do a surgery just to put the solution in the appropriate spot, which is in the area underneath the retina," he said. "At that point, it's just fingers crossed that this gene ends up in the spot that it's supposed to," said Julie.The Soveys knew there were risks and potential complications.  "It's terrifying," said Russell.They were hoping the therapy would at least help McKinley maintain the little vision she had. After the first eye surgery, mom and dad didn't notice a difference. But it was shortly after the second surgery they knew it worked. Parker said she was moving with a purpose."She walked into the kitchen, pulled a chair out, stood up on the chair and actively feeling like the toaster and the coffee maker like she knew those were there and she wanted to get up and be able to feel them," he said.McKinley's depth perception is also changing."Being able to see things further away has been really neat and it's also been kind of scary because I feel like I'm having to re-childproof the house for a 3-year-old," said Julie."She use to feel around for whatever it was she was eating," Parker said. "Then she'd put her hands in it to see what it was and then she'd put the spoon in it, and then usually it was dumped by the time it got to her face."McKinley will still likely be visually impaired, but her parents said any progress is a bonus."She may no longer need to be a braille reader," Julie said. "I don't know if she'll need to use a cane to navigate."They said their daughter is becoming more confident and her personality is even changing."This is kind of part of medical history," said Julie.McKinley has some checkups scheduled, but doctors hope she won't need another surgery. 3071

WASHINGTON, D.C. – President Donald Trump and the first lady were greeted with boos Thursday as they visited the Supreme Court to pay their respects to the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.As Trump stood next to the justice's casket, a crowd chanted “vote him out” and “honor her wish,” referring to Ginsburg’s request that the next president should fill her open seat.Just days before her death, Ginsburg’s granddaughter, Clara Spera, says the justice dictated this statement to her, “My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.”Ginsburg died last week at the age of 87. She is currently lying in repose at the Supreme Court for a second day.The president will announce his candidate to replace Ginsburg on Saturday. His decision to name a candidate and the Senate’s decision to quickly hold hearings ahead of the November 3 election has sparked controversy.Hundreds of mourners passed by her coffin Wednesday outside the Supreme Court, following a ceremony including Ginsburg’s family, close friends, colleagues from the court, and more than 100 former law clerks.Friday, Ginsburg’s coffin will be moved to the U.S Capitol, where she will become the first woman to lie in state since the honor started in 1852.A private graveside ceremony will be held next week at Arlington National Cemetery. 1347

WASHINGTON, D.C. – President-elect Joe Biden introduced his picks for several of his most senior economic advisers at a press event on Tuesday afternoon.The group includes liberal economists and policy specialists who established their credentials during the previous two Democratic administrations. Biden is placing a premium on diversity in his selection of Cabinet nominees and key advisers.For treasury secretary, Biden has nominated former Fed chair Janet Yellen. She would be the first woman to lead the Treasury Department in its 231 years of existence. She would also be the first person to serve as treasury secretary, chair of the Federal Reserve, and chair of the Council of Economic Advisers.In introducing Yellen, Biden called her the most qualified person for the job,citing her work at the Fed following the economic recession of the late '00s.In referencing the hit Broadway play "Hamilton," which centers around the life of the first Secretary of Treasury, Alexander Hamilton, Biden joked that Lin Manual-Miranda would eventually need to write a musical based on Yellen's life.Biden has also tapped Neera Tanden to head the Office of Management and Budget. Tanden would be the first woman of color and the first South Asian woman to lead the agency that oversees the federal budget. She currently serves as President and CEO of the Center for American Progress, an organization dedicated to advancing policies that increase opportunity for Americans.Additionally, Biden has chosen Wally Adeyemo as his deputy treasury secretary. He previously served the in the Obama-Biden administration as deputy director of the National Economic Council and deputy national security advisor.

If confirmed, she will become just the first African American and just the fourth woman to lead the CEA in the 74 years of its existence.Jared Bernstein has been chosen as a member of the Council of Economic Advisers. He previously served as Biden’s chief economist in the first years of the Obama-Biden administration.And Heather Boushey will also become a member of the Council of Economic Advisers. She’s a longtime economic counselor to Biden and currently serves as President and CEO of the Washington Center for Equitable Growth, a nonprofit research and grantmaking organization she cofounded in 2013.Biden released this statement about his economic picks: 2704

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Protesters on both sides of the political spectrum have gathered in the nation’s capital as the U.S. prepares for Election Day results.Specifically, the area surrounding the White House has become a hot spot for demonstrators in support of President Donald Trump, as well as those in favor of former Vice President Joe Biden.A demonstrator shattered a ceramic MAGA hat on the ground right in front of the White House. Most of the people gathered at this part of the fence in the front of the White House are protesting against @realDonaldTrump #ElectionDay #Election2020 pic.twitter.com/4Bi2jIFC90— Tomas Hoppough (@TomasHoppough) November 3, 2020 The view outside the president’s residency is a little different this year, though. “Anti-scale” fencing has been put in place around the White House to prevent people from making their way onto the grounds during this tumultuous time.Some protesters at the site voiced opposition to the fence.“You ever seen something like that before?” asked Alex Loueffler, a Biden supporter. “That and the snipers on the roof, he’s that afraid off the will of the people and the big bad votes.”The White House is far from the only place preparing for potential unrest following the results of the general election. Businesses across the country are preparing just in case we see similar destruction during some of the protests over racial injustice over the summer.Scripps spoke with some D.C. business owners who said they planned to close down early when the polls close. They said that’s when they’re more nervous about what could happen in the district.One D.C. resident said the boarding-up of his community is a bit sad.“I mean that’s where we are, I guess. It’s actually been a little bit emotional for me to see you know seeing that happening,” said D.C. resident Alex Parcan. “I mean I’m from here. I’m not used to seeing on a night that should be, whatever your political persuasion is, a night that should be about us celebrating our democracy. That we’re in this place where we are having to board up buildings and things, like that’s sad.”Meanwhile, other protesters are in support of the fencing and added security, but they wish it wasn’t necessary.“It’s actually very sad and also very sad that when there’s a Republican running for office, the other side makes threats and says it will burn it down, well the Trump supporters in the streets will make them know they’re not welcome,” said James Sullivan, a Trump supporter. “I think it’s a logical response to threats and the president and the Trump administration, the police of D.C., they have to treat every threats seriously.”Law enforcement is also camped out around Washington, just in case any of the protests regarding the election turn violent or need broken up.Regardless of the electoral results, protests are expected to continue for days to come.So far, they’ve been peaceful, and it seems a majority of people out on the streets want to keep it that way.“All I want is a peaceful transition,” said one protester. “I mean it’s been done this way since we’ve had a president. It’s always been peaceful and that’s really all we want.”That protester thinks it’s important to set an example for the world.“We are Americans. The world watches us. We set the example. Let’s show the world how a peaceful transition looks like. Let’s be Americans, united and strong.” 3401
