On this week’s episode of The Van Maren Show, Jonathon speaks with Alithea Williams, public policy manager of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC), about the latest on the United Kingdom’s assisted suicide bill.

Williams emphasized that the bill still needs to pass a third reading after being scrutinized by a parliamentary committee and then pass the House of Lords. But if it passes the third reading, it’s unlikely the House of Lords would vote against it.

Jonathon also asked Williams what pro-lifers, particularly those in the UK, can do to stop the bill from passing a third reading. Tune in to find out what she thinks.

The Trump administration rescinded firings of hundreds of employees at the National Nuclear Security Administration, which oversees the nation’s arsenal of nuclear weapons, in a reversal that has fueled scrutiny over Elon Musk’s efforts to cut the federal workforce.

A spokesman for the Department of Energy, which the semi-autonomous NNSA falls under, told USA TODAY less than 50 workers had their jobs terminated. About 325 NNSA workers initially received notices late last week that they had been laid off, according to Reuters.

The dismissals are part of Trump’s wave of mass firings throughout the federal workforce, engineered by Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency. The original notices prompted one senior NNSA staff member Friday to issue a public call to action before the terminations were halted.
