The Trump administration backs a ten-year deadline for replacing lead pipes, supporting a strict Biden-era rule to combat lead contamination in water. Despite deregulation efforts, EPA lawyers argue that replacing all lead service lines is necessary to meet safety standards and prevent health risks. The new rule lowers the action trigger to ten parts per billion, forcing utilities to notify, reduce levels, and replace pipes. Utilities and groups like the American Water Works Association have sued, claiming they shouldnt touch private-property pipes and ten years is impossible. However, EPA data shows most water systems can finish in ten years or less with proper preparation. Older industrial cities like Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, and Milwaukee stand to benefit most from this shift, with federal funds helping cover costs.

Cubas healthcare system is on the brink of collapse due to a U.S. blockade, causing fuel shortages for ambulances, blackouts in hospitals, and grounded flights. The energy crisis, exacerbated by U.S. tariffs on oil imports, has left Cuba producing only 40% of its own fuel, leaving it reliant on vanished imports. The sanctions threaten basic human safety, particularly for five million people with chronic conditions, including cancer patients, those on chemotherapy, and those requiring heart care, kidney dialysis, and emergency services. Cubas free universal healthcare, already strained by medicine shortages, doctor shortages, and pandemic fallout, is now further hindered by black markets, rationed gas, and curtailed energy-hungry tools like CT scans.
