A little women’s history tidbit:

“Although the Equal Pay Act was passed in 1963 requiring men and women to be paid equally when doing the same work, it wasn't until the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA) was passed in 1974 that women were able to get their own credit cards in their own name.”

It’s only been 50 years since we have been able to get a credit card in our own name.

USCIS Atendió una Cifra sin Precedentes de 10 Millones de Casos de Inmigración en el Año Fiscal 2023 y Redujo su Acumulación de Casos por Primera Vez en Más de una Década

"En el año fiscal 2023 USCIS recibió 10.9 millones de casos nuevos y completó más de 10 millones de casos pendientes, ambos niveles, los más altos en la historia de la agencia.

"The Supreme Court on Monday temporarily froze enforcement of Texas’ controversial immigration law that allows state law enforcement to arrest and detain people they suspect of entering the country illegally.

Justice Samuel Alito issued the administrative hold, which will block the law from taking effect until March 13. That temporary pause will give the court additional time to review the case but does not necessarily signal which way the court is leaning. (Alito oversees the federal circuit that handled the case.)"
