"Good morning, I'm Mark Lewis with the top local stories we're following this hour. The U.S. Supreme Court now hearing oral arguments about President Biden's student loan forgiveness plan. Let's go live to the Supreme Court. That's where we find WTO's Luke Luger. We have smart thousands of protesters and activists, some with the NAACP are here rallying near the steps of the Supreme Court urging those judges to not overturn president Joe Biden's executive order, canceling student loan debt for millions of Americans. The crab is chanted, education is a right we've heard from dozens of speakers explaining why exactly millions of Americans deserve to have up to 20 grand of student loan debt forgiven. Some of them have pointed to the fact that many can't buy homes or start businesses because of those lofty payments over their heads, opponents of the forgiveness have argued that it's not taxpayers responsibilities to pay for the debts of others, Supreme Court, as you said, are going to be hearing arguments for the next few hours.

Thornton was working as a counselor at Glasgow middle school. A bill now heading to governor Glenn youngkin's desk hopes to prevent that scenario from happening again. The legislation was introduced by senator Scott servile, after a fairfax county school's counselor, continued working 20 months after being arrested for soliciting prostitution from a minor in Chesterfield county, correspondents from police to the school was never delivered. I think we cleaned it up and built in some redundancy to ensure that errors aren't going to occur. The bill would require school districts to have updated contact info on file, circuit and district courts would also have access to the information. The last kind of person any parent would ever expect to have working in her school would be a sex offender. And I think it's absolutely critical that we have systems in place to prevent that from ever happening. If the governor signs the bill, it will then go into effect in July. Melissa Howell WTO P news.
