For the first time in its history, Sports Illustrated will feature a transgender model in its annual Swimsuit Edition.Sports Illustrated said Friday that 23-year-old Brazilian model Valentina Sampaio would be featured in the magazine, which is slated for a July 21 release.In an open letter published on Sports Illustrated's website, Sampaio said she was "excited and honored" to be a part of the upcoming issue."Being trans usually means facing closed doors to peoples’ hearts and minds," she wrote. "We face snickers, insults, fearful reactions and physical violations just for existing. Our options for growing up in a loving and accepting family, having a fruitful experience at school or finding dignified work are unimaginably limited and challenging.""I recognize that I am one of the fortunate ones, and my intention is to honor that as best I can."According to NBC, the Swimsuit Edition is just the latest barrier Sampaio has smashed as a transgender model. Last year, she was hired as the first openly trans Victoria's Secret model, and she was the first openly trans model to appear on the cover of any Vogue magazine."Valentina has been on our radar for some time now and when we finally met face-to-face it became apparent that besides her obvious beauty, she is an impassioned activist, a true pioneer for the LGBT+ community and just simply embodies the well-rounded woman we are proud to have represent SI Swimsuit across our platforms," Sports Illustrated said in a statement to NBC.In 2019, Sports Illustrated featured a Muslim model, Halima Aden, in the Swimsuit Edition. Aden sported a hijab and a burkini in her photo shoot. 1653

Friday marks the final day of increased unemployment benefits passed under the CARES Act — and while millions of Americans are seeking unemployment insurance each week, it will likely be several weeks before lawmakers agree on a replacement.Republicans and Democrats remain far apart in negotiations to extend benefits, despite President Donald Trump's offer on Thursday to sign a short-term extension of the 0 unemployment benefits.“We want a temporary extension of enhanced unemployment benefits,” Trump said at the White House. “This will provide a critical bridge for Americans who lost their jobs to the pandemic through no fault of their own.”However, Democrats rejected Trump's proposal, instead opting to try and pass a more comprehensive bill that would include more stimulus.Earlier this week, Republicans — who are currently broken into groups of more moderate members and deficit hawks — proposed a trillion stimulus plan that would keep increased benefits, but cut them by more than half to 0 a week. The benefits would only last for a few months before states would be required to set up their own unemployment programs.Democrats, on the other hand, favor a trillion stimulus plan, which passed through the House in May. The bill would keep 0 a week unemployment benefits through the end of the year and extend them to gig workers and self-employed people who are out of work.Republicans claim the unemployment benefits incentivize people not to work. Democrats argue that the government must subsidize those at-risk people who feel they cannot work for fear of contracting the virus. 1621

For the second year in a row, US seniors will see increases in their Social Security checks starting in January.Recipients will get a 2.8 percent boost in 2019, higher than last year's 2 percent increase — which followed years of minimal changes in payments.The average payment for all retired workers will go up from ,422 to ,461 per month, or .The annual cost of living adjustment is pegged to inflation, which has been rising faster over the past year. The upcoming 2019 increase, which will cover 67 million Americans, is the largest since a 3.6 percent hike in 2012.The announcement from the Social Security Administration comes after the release of the Consumer Price Index for September, which shows a 2.3 percent increase in the cost of all items over the past year. The year-over-year increase in August was 2.7 percent.Lately, the largest component of rising costs has been housing, with low inventory and a re-emergence of first-time home buyers driving up prices. The CPI's measure of gas prices is also up 9.1 percent since last September.Senior advocacy groups hailed the increase but said it still wasn't enough to cover the living costs of older Americans.The Senior Citizens League, a group mostly comprised of retired military veterans, voiced a particular concern in a report released Thursday: that the 5 million Social Security recipients with the smallest monthly payments would effectively see no increase in 2019 after taking into account rising premiums for Medicare Part B, which are automatically deducted from Social Security Checks."We need to strengthen and expand Social Security with COLAs that reflect the real expenses seniors face," said Richard Fiesta, executive director of the Alliance for Retired Americans, which is supported by major labor unions.The group supports pegging cost-of-living increases instead to a measure of inflation specifically tailored to people older than age 62, which factors in higher healthcare costs. A bill has been introduced in the House to make that change and hasn't moved further. 2082
