- New academic standards in Oklahoma require students to identify "discrepancies" in the 2020 election results based on unfounded claims about the voting process.

- While the standards are set to take effect next school year, a lawsuit from a former Republican attorney general could delay their implementation.
"These new standards will ensure that kids have an accurate and comprehensive view of historical events, while also reinforcing the values that make our country great."— Ryan Walters, Oklahoma Superintendent of Public Instruction, said this at a February State Board of Education meeting.

FEMA Cancels Strategy Days Before Hurricane SeasonLess than two weeks before Atlantic hurricane season, FEMA withdraws its 2022-2026 plan and plans a new 2026-2030 strategy.

- The Office of Resilience Strategy was disbanded, reducing FEMA’s capacity for preventative infrastructure measures.
"Without it, there are just a bunch of offices doing whatever they feel like doing."— A FEMA official described the strategic plan as the agency's 'organizational backbone.'
