The only exceptions have been 2000 and 2004 (the Keystone State proved immune to the charms of George W. Bush). Mirroring those trends, it flipped from Barack Obama to Donald Trump in 2016 and from Trump to Joe Biden in 2020. It is expected to be a hotly contested battleground this November.
The U.S. Federal Trade Commission's ban on "noncompete" agreements commonly signed by workers is likely vulnerable to legal challenges, experts said, as some courts have grown increasingly skeptical of federal agencies' power to adopt broad rules. The commission in unveiling the rule on Tuesday said agreements not to join employers' competitors or launch rival businesses suppress workers' wages and stunt their mobility and job opportunities.

The world's forum for banking regulators on Thursday tightened up its rulebook to focus better on spotting risks from climate change, the rise of non-banks, and digitalisation of finance. The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, made up of banking regulators and central bankers from the G2O economies and other countries, last year set out proposals to revise its "core principles" for the first time since 2012.

TORONTO — The Writers Guild of Canada says its members have voted to authorize a strike if negotiators can't reach a deal with the Canadian Media Producers Association. The WGC says 96.5 per cent of those who voted were in favour of authorizing a strike, and a record 70.2 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot.
