23-year-old woman with mental health found safe, officials say
WE’LL HAVE THOSE DETAILS NEXT. THANK YOU. MICHELLE. ALL THE WATER THAT FELL IN THE PIEDMONT TRIAD IS NOW RUSHING DOWNSTREAM. JORDAN LAKE IN CHATHAM COUNTY IS 12FT ABOVE ITS NORMAL LEVEL. NOW. THE ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS IS RELEASING WATER TO RELIEVE PRESSURE ON THE DAM. IT’S AN EYE CATCHING SIGHT. TENS OF THOUSANDS OF GALLONS OF WATER RUSHING OUT OF THE DAM EVERY SECOND. THE CORPS SAYS THEY WILL SLOWLY REDUCE THE LAKE LEVEL OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. A LIVE LOOK NOW THIS AFTERNOON AT THE SENATE FLOOR, LAWMAKERS ARE EXPECTED TO VOTE TODAY TO CUT $9.5 BILLION RECOMMENDED BY THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S DEPARTMENT OF GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY, OR DOGE, THE SO-CALLED RECESSION PACKAGE WOULD PULL BACK MONEY.3 LAWMAKERS AND PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP APPROVED JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO. AMY LU IS IN OUR WASHINGTON BUREAU WITH WHAT’S IN THIS BILL. A MAJOR POINT OF CONTENTION IS- CUTTING MORE THAN $1 BILLION TO PUBLIC MEDIA. SENATORS OPPOSED SAY THE CUTS WILL SEVER CRITICAL LINES OF COMMUNICATION WITH PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY IN RURAL AREAS. THE CORPORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING, WHICH DISTRIBUTES MONEY TO MORE THAN 1500 PUBLIC TV AND RADIO STATIONS LIKE NPR AND PBS STATIONS, FOR EXAMPLE, WOULD LOSE THAT FUNDING. THE WHITE HOUSE AND PRESIDENT TRUMP ARGUE THE PUBLIC MEDIA SYSTEM IS POLITICALLY BIASED AND AN UNNECESSARY EXPENSE. SOUTH DAKOTA SENATOR MIKE ROUNDS, WHO COULD SINK THE BILL IF HE VOTED NO, REPORTEDLY WORKED OUT A DEAL TO KEEP FUNDING FOR RADIO STATIONS ON TRIBAL LANDS, ESPECIALLY IN HIS STATE. HE VOTED YES OVERNIGHT ON THAT EARLY VOTE. A MAJORITY OF THE BILL WOULD CUT FOREIGN AID PROGRAMS AS WELL, BUT SENATORS CHOSE TO KEEP ONE OF THEM. IT’S A BUSH ERA INITIATIVE COMBATING HIV AND AIDS IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. LEADERS KEPT THIS IN TO GET MORE SENATORS ON BOARD. BUT MORE THAN $8 BILLION IN FUNDING COULD BE STRIPPED FROM THE SO-CALLED SOFT POWER DIPLOMACY PROGRAMS. THE U.S. WOULD END, SUPPLYING THINGS LIKE FOOD, WATER AND HEALTH CARE TO LOW INCOME COUNTRIES, HELPING SAVE LIVES FROM FAMINE, DISEASE AND PROMOTE GLOBAL STABILITY. REPORTING IN WASHINGTON. I’M AMY LU. THANK YOU, AMY, AND PRESIDENT TRUMP’S DECISION TO FREEZE NEARLY $170 MILLION IN FEDERAL EDUCATION FUNDING FOR NORTH CAROLINA IS CAUSING ANXIETY IN MANY PIEDMONT TRIAD SCHOOL DISTRICTS, SUPERINTENDENT DOCTOR GREG SLATE SAYS HIS DISTRICT IS LOSING OVER $1 MILLION. HE SAYS EVERY STUDENT AND EDUCATOR WILL FEEL THE IMPACTS. WE’LL DO THE BEST WE CAN IN DAVIDSON COUNTY SCHOOLS TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERY CHILD RECEIVES A WELL-ROUNDED EDUCATION. BUT WITH THE LOSS OF THESE FUNDS, IT IMPACTS CHILDREN ALL ACROSS FROM KINDERGARTEN, ALL THE WAY TO 12TH GRADE. OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTS IN THE PIEDMONT TRIAD COULD ALSO LOSE MONEY IF THE FUNDING IS NOT RELEASED SOON. WE HAVE THEIR RESPONSES RIGHT NOW ON WXII 12.COM. RIGHT NOW, THE WINSTON-SALEM FORSYTH COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT IS HIRING. THE SCHOOL SYSTEM HAS MORE THAN 200 OPEN POSITIONS AND IS LOOKING FOR A VARIETY OF TEACHERS, TEACHER ASSISTANTS AND SCHOOL FINANCIAL MANAGERS. THE SCHOOL DISTRICT HELD ITS ANNUAL SUMMER CAREER FAIR YESTERDAY. AS YOU SEE IN THIS VIDEO, WHERE APPLICANTS HAD THE CHANCE TO HEAR FROM SCHOOL PRINCIPALS AND MANAGERS. FIRST OF ALL, WE WANT FOLKS WITH LOVE OF CHILDREN WHO WANT TO IMPROVE OUR SOCIETY AS WELL AS, OF COURSE, MEET THE LICENSURE REQUIREMENTS SET BY THE STATE. BUT IT ULTIMATELY COMES DOWN TO THE LOVE OF CHILDREN AND THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL FOR WINSTON-SALEM FORSYTH COUNTY SCHOOL STUDENTS IS AUGUST 13TH. ALSO LOOKING AHEAD, THERE IS A SCHOOL ENROLLMENT FAIR HAPPENING TODAY FOR LEXINGTON CITY SCHOOLS. IT BEGINS AT 2 P.M. AND RUNS UNTIL SEVEN AT SOUTHWEST GLOBAL ACADEMY. THAT’S ON CENTRAL AVENUE. FAMILIES CAN HEAR FROM REPRESENTATIVES FROM ALL SCHOOL LEVELS. THE FIRST D
