Louisiana Fallout: In a major test of Trump’s influence, GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy lost his primary after Trump backed challengers—setting up a runoff with Rep. Julia Letlow and state Treasurer John Fleming. North Carolina Health: New state data shows NC infant mortality hit an all-time low in 2024, but child deaths ages 1–17 didn’t improve. Child Safety Push: The NC Child Fatality Task Force says preventable deaths remain a priority, pointing to gaps in car-seat law alignment and stalled Senate action on a key bill.
