New recruiting programs put Army, Air Force on track to meet enlistment goals. Navy will fall short
After several difficult years, the Army and Air Force say they are on track to meet their recruiting goals this year, reversing previous shortfalls using a swath of new programs and policy changes. With half a year to go in the recruiting year, Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said she is optimistic about hitting the 55,000 enlistment goal and getting an additional 5,000 recruits for the delayed entry pool that would come in during the next year or so. “Right now we are 5,000 contracts ahead of where we were compared to this time last year,” Wormuth said in an interview with The Associated Press.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Stung by paying billions of dollars for settlements and trials, chemical giant Bayer has been lobbying lawmakers in three states to pass bills providing it a legal shield from lawsuits that claim its popular weedkiller Roundup causes cancer.

Indiana limits abortion data for privacy under near-total ban, but some GOP candidates push back
Indiana allows so few abortions that health officials stopped releasing individual reports to protect patient privacy — a move some Republicans are now fighting to reverse. The Republicans, including prominent candidates for office this year, want access to reports detailing each abortion still performed in the state. Advocates for abortion rights and some state officials warn that would jeopardize the privacy of physicians and patients who can only receive abortions under strict circumstances.

Trump trial: Why can't Americans see or hear what is going on inside the courtroom?
Instead, most of the nation is getting news of former President Donald Trump's hush money trial secondhand. Starting with preliminary motions and jury selection Monday, reporters in a Manhattan courtroom must convey what is being said to the outside world after the fact. Last week's death of O.J. Simpson, whose murder trial beamed live from a California courtroom captivated a nation three decades ago, was a telling reminder of how New York is behind the times — or, at least, a holdout. WHY WON'T NEW YORK LET ME SEE IT?

China growth beats forecasts in first quarter
STORY: China’s economy is doing better than expected. Figures out Tuesday showed growth hitting 5.3% in the first quarter. That was comfortably ahead of analyst forecasts. The world’s second-largest economy has struggled to deliver a strong post-COVID recovery. It’s been held back by factors including a mounting crisis in its huge property sector. Many major developers are struggling to survive as they grapple with massive debts. China also faces mountainous debts at local government level, and weak consumer spending.Officials have turned to spending on infrastructure to help lift growth. The overall picture remains very mixed. Other data released Tuesday showed retail spending growing less than expected. Consumer price inflation also cooled more than expected, adding to signs of subdued demand from shoppers. For now though, the GDP numbers will spell relief for officials, who have set a 5% growth target for the year. They’re expected to unveil more monetary and fiscal measures in a bid to hit that figure. Many economists say it looks ambitious, however, with last year’s rate of 5.2% flattered by a rebound from lockdowns.
