Trump administration asks Texas for help providing legal services to immigrant kids facing deportation
By Lomi Kriel, Texas Tribune at Houston Public Media

Immigration rights experts worry that the recent inquiry is the latest sign Trump is interested in transferring unaccompanied minors to the state, where it is easier to quickly deport them.
Why this matters in The Woodlands
The push for federal health officials to access most Americans' medical records has significant implications for residents of The Woodlands . As a community with a high standard of living and access to quality healthcare, locals may be more likely to have extensive medical records. This raises concerns about data privacy and security, particularly in the event of a natural disaster like a hurricane, which could compromise electronic health records. Meanwhile, the link between screen time and brain development is a timely reminder for parents in the Conroe ISD and Tomball ISD school districts to monitor their children's screen use. With many families in The Woodlands spending time outdoors at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion or exploring Town Center, there are plenty of opportunities to balance screen time with physical activity. Learning CPR is also a valuable skill for residents, given the community's risk of flooding and other emergencies.
