• SPECIAL | Eco-anxiety is on the rise

  Devastating rains in Texas Hill County on the morning of July 4th created deadly floods that have now claimed over 100 lives and counting. The catastrophic rains took place in a region that's known as "flash flood alley," causing the Guadalupe River to rise from less than a foot on July 3 to more than 34 feet by the morning of July 4. Experts say that warming temperatures over land and especially in the Gulf are stoking extreme rainfall events across the United States, largely due to climate change. These super storms are also unleashing extreme fear in young people. It's called eco-anxiety. How can we maintain the mental health of young people in the midst of our worsening climate? Caroline Hickman, a psychologist who has been treating eco-anxiety for decades and sits on the board of the Climate Psychology Alliance, joins The Excerpt to share her insights into this growing psychological issue.

• Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" is now law: Who are the winners and losers?

  After a furious few weeks of debate, closed door negotiations, open floor debate and deal-making, the Republican-controlled legislature has finally passed a final version of President Donald Trump’s budget priorities referred to by Republicans as “One Big Beautiful Bill.” It is likely going to be the most significant legislative accomplishment of Trump’s second term. And as with most bills, this one has its winners and its losers. But make no mistake, it will impact every American one way or another. USA TODAY Senior Congress and Campaigns Reporter Riley Beggin joins The Excerpt to explain what's in the final bill.
