(NASDAQ:NTRB)(NASDAQ:NTRBW) today announced that CEO Gareth Sheridan has published a letter to shareholders providing insights on achievements and milestones through 2024 and the potential outlook for 2025
Following the filing of our annual report as we wrap up a successful year packed with milestones and advances towards the commercialization of our AVERSA technology
the entire team at Nutriband would like to extend our warmest appreciation to all of you for your continued support throughout 2024 and into 2025
Many of you have been with us from the beginning and many more joined our mission to change the pharmaceutical industry for the better by developing our Aversa technology designed to improve the safety of easily abused transdermal drugs
while making them available to patients who need them
Pain patients have been struggling with inadequate care for too long
and they deserve to be able to access the medication they need
Today we are on track to be the world’s first and only abuse deterrent technology in the transdermal space targeting abusable medications such as fentanyl and buprenorphine
Nutriband is primarily focused on working with our partner Kindeva Drug Delivery
a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization focused on drug-device combination products
which incorporates Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent transdermal technology into Kindeva’s FDA-approved transdermal fentanyl patch
AVERSA Fentanyl has the potential to become the world’s first opioid pain patch with abuse deterrent properties and is estimated to potentially reach peak annual sales of $80M - $200M
our next candidate for AVERSA is projected to reach peak annual sales of $70M - $130M
Nutriband recently performed an extensive evaluation of the commercial cost of goods of incorporating the Aversa technology into existing FDA-approved transdermal patches and have confirmed the viability of achieving high margins that are typically found in NDA pharmaceutical products
This past year we have made significant strides in the development and scale-up of the manufacturing process to bring the AVERSA technology closer towards commercialization
This has involved the development and refinement of our proprietary technology for commercial scale manufacturability as well as the establishment of the commercial supply chain and validation of the analytical methods required to meet FDA regulatory standards for a pharmaceutical product
The new year has already been highlighted by a significant milestone with our partner Kindeva Drug Delivery to formalize our exclusive product development partnership and long-term commitment based on shared development costs in exchange for milestone payments
It solidifies a transition to commercial scale development for AVERSA Fentanyl
We have confidently shifted our focus from feasibility towards commercial development in support of an NDA filing and commercialization
This was a very strong show of support from our partner Kindeva which also allowed us to reduce the impact of dilution to our existing shareholders which I stress has been and will remain a core focus of the company
This was evident through our raise of $8.4M USD in April 2024 in a non-brokered private placement primarily through existing shareholders
we continued to further expand the worldwide intellectual property portfolio for our Aversa™ abuse deterrent technology
with approvals in China and its territories
and a new patent recently allowed in the United States
This improves our position to bring our leading abuse deterrent platform to market and we are now patented in 46 countries around the world
While initially concentrating on the US market
the unmet medical need for adequate pain management is a global problem
and our goal is to make AVERSA a global solution strategically targeting all major medical markets in the world
Our 2025 goals are ambitious yet achievable
focused on getting into the clinic to evaluate our lead product
in a pivotal Human Abuse Liability (HAL) clinical trial to support an NDA filing
This involves manufacturing clinical supplies using a commercial scale process and filing an Investigational New Drug application with the FDA
We are also excited to explore new potential partnerships
internationally for our AVERSA intellectual property and will be turning our focus to potential licensing and partnership opportunities as we near closer to filing our NDA with the FDA
the team is excited by strong revenue in our Pocono Pharma subsidiary for our kinesiology tape contract manufacturing services
We strongly believe that 2025 is shaping up to be our best year on record at Pocono Pharma due to our expanding manufacturing collaboration with KT Tape

After brutally assaulting an elderly woman and a delivery person
Thomas Scott Aversa turned his rage Friday afternoon on a Lycoming Regional policewoman just moments after she arrived at the intersection of Route 973 West and Chesapeake Lane
not far from the 60-year-old man’s Lycoming Township home
“When the officer arrived on the scene
Aversa was striking the delivery woman’s face as she stood outside her vehicle,” it was alleged in a police affidavit
Aversa charged at her and allegedly began “striking her numerous times in the left side of the head,” it was stated in the court document
With the help of two neighbors and another passerby — who stopped to offer assistance — the policewoman was able to get Aversa under control and restrain him
when the policewoman was dispatched to check on the welfare of Aversa’s elderly neighbor
The neighbor was to pick up a friend at UPMC Williamsport
the friend called police to see if she was OK
officers went to the neighbor’s home
They soon learned the neighbor was in the hospital’s emergency room getting treated for injuries she suffered when Aversa allegedly attacked her outside her home as she was leaving to pick up her friend about 11 a.m.
It was alleged that Aversa punched the woman “in the head multiple times” as he was “rambling,” making little or no sense
The woman was “knocked unconscious” for an undisclosed amount of time
adding that when she regained consciousness
I had to do it” as he rambled on about the Mafia and told the woman “Someone is going to die,” it was stated in the court document
Aversa then forcibly took the woman’s purse
As Aversa was taking the items to a nearby vehicle
the woman quickly got to her car and drove to the hospital
where she was admitted with various injuries
The policewoman was treated at the hospital and discharged
The delivery woman said she was making a delivery in the neighborhood when she came upon Aversa in the middle of Route 973 West “taking his clothes off,” the affidavit stated
Believing that he had been hit by a vehicle
who “initially jumped up on the hood of the delivery vehicle before turning his attention to the driver and punching her numerous times in the face,” it was alleged in a court document
Charged with three counts each of aggravated assault and simple assault as well as one count each of robbery and theft
of 100 Chesapeake Lane screamed and shouted continuously at District Judge William Solomon during his arraignment
He was committed to the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of $200,000 bail

Brian Aversa has accomplished a lot of things over the course of his 23-year career as a high school head baseball coach

That came three years after Macon Meridian finished with a 4-16 record during his first year at the helm in 2003
Aversa became the head baseball coach at Kaneland
where he led the Knights to an 18-13 record his first season before guiding the team to back-to-back 23-13 records in 2009 and 2010

the Knights defeated Peoria-Notre Dame (8-3) and Waterloo (8-2) on their way to an 11-3 triumph over Oak Forest in the 3A state championship game
Aversa added to his list of milestones last month when he collected his 400th coaching victory in Kaneland’s 9-6 win over Aurora Christian on March 24 in Maple Park
but really it makes me feel old and humbled looking back on how we all got here,” said Aversa
it’s just a quick pause then we move forward.”

where he owns a 355-211 record (403 career wins)
Kaneland has captured 7 conference championships and 6 regional titles
“I’m proud of the consistency that we as a coaching staff continue to put out on the field,” said Aversa
I’m proud of the people our players become
especially guys that come back to coach with us or even go on to have their own programs
“The guys that aren’t in baseball any longer are great fathers and husbands
Those relationships with players that span years after they’re done are what I’m most proud of.”
Aversa was inducted into the Illinois High School Baseball Coaches Association’s Hall of Fame
“I couldn’t do it without my players and coaches,” he said
“It’s truly a cumulative recognition for all of us

ExpandKaneland head coach Brian Aversa greets Matthew Brunscheen after he tripled during their game against Sycamore last season
Here’s one: Kaneland endured losing seasons in the first 10 years of its program. After Brian Aversa was hired as its new head coach in 2007, the Knights have had just one and the Knights are now preparing for their 2025 campaign.
With a state championship, six regional titles and seven conference titles at Kaneland and 399 victories and seven regional titles, Aversa was inducted into the Illinois High School Baseball Coaches Association (IHSBCA) Hall of Fame on Jan. 11 at The Westin Hotel at Yorktown Center in Lombard.
“We’ve always tried to be competitive and put a tough schedule together,” Aversa said. “It’s never going into the season thinking how can we get 20 wins, but it’s a goal of the program at every level we strive for. But we’re not looking for a set number. We want to prepare for the postseason for what we can do.”
Aversa joins some fine local company in the Hall as Wayne DeMaar (St. Charles, 1986), Dave Randall (Waubonsee Community College), Dave Pettengell (DeKalb, 2002), Mark Lindo (Aurora Central, 2005), Dave Rowell (West Aurora, 2007), Len Asquini (St. Charles East, 2022), Jason Cavanaugh (Sycamore, 2023) and Todd Genke (St. Charles North, 2023) are some of the local greats who were inducted in prior years.
“I am just humbled and honored to be a part of it all,” Aversa said. “I hope to continue to uphold the precedent that the members of this Hall of Fame and this coaching community have set. I love competing against those guys as they help drive our program to be better. It’s amazing the accomplishments that some of those guys have like Tim Funkhouser from Edwardsville.”
Aversa began his teaching and coaching career at Meridian High School, spending four years at the small school in Macon as its head baseball coach from 2003-2006.
“It was pretty much a whirlwind going from small-town Macon to Kaneland,” Aversa said. “But being from Geneva I knew the area, knew about Kaneland baseball from competing against them.”
While many within the Kaneland community may know that Brian Claesson is the varsity girls basketball coach as well as one of Aversa’s assistant coaches, few have been around long enough to remember Claesson being Aversa’s everyday catcher during his first season in Maple Park.
In Aversa’s debut season the Knights had a winning one for the first time in program history, going 18-13. The next year they went 19-12 but later that December they tragically lost teammate Jeff Malewig and classmate Blake Denton in a car accident.
“It’s something that coaches aren’t taught and (Malewig) was a part of our fabric and his buddies were a close-knit group,” Aversa said. “As a parent of baseball players, of kids, you never want to see that, and as a teacher those are situations you can’t prepare for.”
Baseball, like life, has its ups and downs. It teaches you about failure. It also can help heal grieving hearts.
“It solidified the bond in that team that was there before and gave them something bigger to play for,” Aversa explained. “And that was the one time when we made the season about somebody.”
Some of Malewig’s former teammates helped Kaneland win the Class 3A state title in 2011.
“Honestly, that kind of propelled into the state stuff with the next teams so close, a year or two behind Jeff,” Aversa said. “Those 2011 guys saw how it affected things and played with guys who were teammates with Jeff. They pulled together in a time of need. Every year we give the Jeff Malewig #41 Award Scholarship for $500 and every year I’m not sure if I’m going to get emotional so sometimes I have to pause my speech.”
When the Knights were set to play at the historic Heine Meine fields in St. Louis during the end of their spring trip in 2009, Aversa and assistant coach Jim Smedley were the first to visit the dugout that morning. They were meant to be there.
Geneva athletic director Matt Hahn’s first crossed paths when Aversa was pursuing summer umpiring opportunities. Hahn was the Vikings head coach from 2004-2016. Aversa would later coach Hahn’s son, Drew, in football at Kaneland.
“He’s a Hall of Fame person, too, a wonderful man,” Hahn said. “Whenever I think of Brian, I think of all the games we coached and especially when we were playing in 2014.”
That was the same year that Drew Hahn was diagnosed with cancer.
Update on Drew Hahn: He’s cancer-free, recently graduated from school and he has a girlfriend.
Nik Panico, who was named the 2024 North Athletics Collegiate Player of the Year playing for Aurora University last spring, caught his final high school game for Aversa in 2019.
When Panico got engaged late last December, Aversa was among the first people to text him back.
Jason Rader, one of Aversa’s old friends and teammates at Geneva High School and Millikin University, remembers beating up on Kaneland in the program’s early years.
“I think we beat them by 30 runs,” he said. “People forget what he did, how he was able to turn it around all the way down to the youth level.”
For those keeping score at home, Rader’s memory was close, but not exact as Geneva blanked Kaneland, 24-0, on April 14, 1997.
Rader knew his former roommate would thrive as he made the shift from athlete to coach and teacher.
“We grew up together and our top memories are from sports,” Rader said. “And all the way back in high school, he was always a leader. He’d lead by example and he was going to put the work in and bust his (butt). He’s a great human. I even met a player he coached who came out and worked for me. Part of the reason I hired him was because of how Brian taught him as a player. To see the impact he has on individuals. He sees them through every step of the way, such a great leader.”
And now he’s a Hall of Fame coach getting ready for another season, each one unique in its own way. Last year the Knights finished 20-12, losing to Benet in a Class 3A regional semifinal.
Aversa said it takes the tireless efforts of his coaching staff, combined with a lot of talented ballplayers, to turn Kaneland into a tough team to beat every afternoon and Saturday morning.
“It starts with coach (Dan) Hallahan, the freshman coach from Geneva was with me originally and then we moved him to the freshmen,” Aversa said. “He’s the best fundamentals coach I know. And I’ve been lucky to have some stability. Smedley’s been with me for 18 years now and I’m really close with guys like (Brian) Claesson and (Jake) Bachio who are on the staff with me.”
“The wins may go under my name, but it’s been a total team effort,” Aversa said. “None of it happens without everybody else. They’ve done so much for our program and it’s good to be around good baseball minds. And we’ve had some really good players with guys like Bobby Thorson, Tyler Conklin, Joe Laudont. We’ve been blessed to have that kind of talent at Kaneland.”
The Knights lost some key talent from a year ago. They’ll have a brand-new outfield. Every team can always use arms.
“We’ve got some guys that are going to have to fill some big holes,” Aversa said. “We don’t have the big bopper bat this year. We have a lot of guys who are going to have to grind it out, scratch it out.”
While playing America’s pastime for a Hall of Fame coach.

Nutriband has effectively created multiple layers of defense against potential competitors who might attempt to develop similar abuse-deterrent transdermal technologies
building this type of comprehensive global patent architecture is exactly what successful pharmaceutical companies require before major partners or acquirers typically show serious interest
The specific Macao patent strengthens Nutriband's position in the broader Asian market
complementing existing protections in mainland China
What's particularly notable here is the scope of protection around a technology addressing the critical public health issue of opioid abuse
The AVERSA platform technology has applications beyond just fentanyl
potentially extending to multiple drugs with abuse potential
creating a pipeline of protected opportunities rather than just a single product
The market opportunity for Nutriband's AVERSA Fentanyl product warrants attention considering the company's current $54 million market capitalization against projected peak US sales of $80-200 million
This disparity suggests potential undervaluation if the company successfully navigates the remainder of the development and approval process
The abuse-deterrent opioid market addresses a critical public health need while facing increasing regulatory support
Fentanyl specifically represents a high-priority target for abuse deterrence given its potency and associated mortality risks
What makes this opportunity distinctive is the transdermal delivery system – most existing abuse-deterrent technologies focus on oral formulations
leaving a gap in the market for safer patch-based delivery
The partnership with Kindeva adds credibility
as Kindeva brings established expertise in transdermal drug delivery systems and manufacturing capabilities
This collaboration significantly reduces execution risk around the physical production of these specialized patches
While this patent grant doesn't accelerate the timeline to commercialization
it does strengthen the commercial potential by extending market exclusivity
the primary value inflection points remain clinical development milestones and FDA regulatory decisions
though this expanding IP portfolio enhances the foundation for future revenue streams
The technology's ability to maintain legitimate patient access while deterring abuse represents a balanced approach that should appeal to prescribers
Nutriband granted patent protecting its AVERSA abuse deterrent platform technology in Macao
a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China
today announced that it has received notification that its patent has been granted in Macao for its patent entitled
"Abuse and Misuse Deterrent Transdermal Systems," which protects its AVERSA™ abuse deterrent transdermal technology
The Macao Intellectual Property Office granted patent J/9010 on February 11
2025 as recorded in Macao Official Bulletin No
Macao is a Special Administrative Region (SAR) of the People’s Republic of China that has its own patent system and patent laws which are separate and distinct from those of mainland China
The AVERSA™ abuse deterrent technology is now covered by a broad international intellectual property portfolio with patents issued in 46 countries including the United States
Nutriband is currently working with its partner Kindeva Drug Delivery

(WRDW/WAGT) - The I-TEAM has uncovered new information about an incident at the Charles B
Webster Detention Center that landed six now-former deputies in jail themselves
All six still face charges in Richmond County
But two of them just pleaded guilty to federal charges.
await sentencing after each pleaded guilty to an information charging them with deprivation of civil rights under color of law
That’s because new documents show that Morello and D’Aversa’s plea agreements in federal court hint others were involved.
And then there’s Morello’s body cam video.
Morello and D’Aversa are among at least six law enforcement officers charged in connection with an incident on May 7
It happened after deputies responded to a call about unruly inmates
Inmates had popped off sprinkler heads to flood the jail in protest of plumbing problems
A source tells the I-TEAM it’s not that unusual for inmates to do this to draw attention to something but responding deputies likely did not know that
After reviewing body camera and surveillance videos
it was determined the amount of force used in response to the call was unnecessary
we learn the woman wearing the camera says she’s guilty of depriving an inmate of his civil rights.
Both plea agreements point to a specific moment
seemingly captured on Morello’s bodycam.
Morello is the only female voice you’ll hear.
face first,” said Morello in the body cam footage.
but the inmate isn’t happy about his face in the water and insinuates he might do something about it – if he wasn’t handcuffed.
The video shows Morello trying to remove the cuffs.
But before the inmate is even able to stand up
D’Aversa admits to shouting about the inmate wanting his handcuffs removed.
Morello admitted to trying to get the cuffs off
Both say they failed to intervene when the inmate was attacked.
Department of Defense component agency pleaded guilty to mishandling sensitive documents and faces up to five years in federal prison
D’Aversa and Morello each face a possible sentence of up to 10 years in federal prison
along with substantial fines and restitution
followed by up to three years of supervised release upon completion of any prison term
Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division and U.S
Steinberg for the Southern District of Georgia Acting Special Agent in Charge Sean Burke of the FBI Atlanta Field Office made the announcement
Morello was a jailer at Richmond County’s Charles D
and D’Aversa was a corporal with the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office
working with other Richmond County Sheriff’s Office jailers and deputies to secure inmates who had caused flooding in a section of the jail
referred to in court documents as Victim 1
was handcuffed face-down in the jail when D’Aversa and Morello shouted to other staff members that Victim 1 wanted his handcuffs removed
A man was arrested earlier this month after he was located by campus police with an AR-style rifle at Augusta University
Morello then “attempted to unlock Victim 1′s handcuffs so that another employee would have an excuse to go hands-on with him,” and when Morello was unsuccessful
a deputy listed as Deputy 2 then unlocked and removed the handcuffs
A deputy listed as Deputy 1 then “repeatedly punched Victim 1 and placed him in a chokehold
… During Deputy 1′s assault on Victim 1,” and both Morello and D’Aversa “failed to intervene to stop or attempt to stop the assault,” despite having the opportunity to do so
Randal Hall will schedule sentencing for D’Aversa and Morello upon completion of pre-sentence investigations by U.S

Ocean Casino Resort Turns Seven in Style with ‘Lucky Summer of Sevens’
Under the guiding vision of architect Antonio Zagaria
a stunning renovation in the heart of Italy’s Aversa is redefining the concept of a courtyard
The home—located in a late 19th-century building—is centered on a striking and unexpected focal point: a Ficus Benjamina encased by a modernist iron-and-glass structure
they told me that this house represented a dream for them,” Zagaria says of his clients
they have been toying with the idea of living in a villa—a place where they could arrive by car
and feel surrounded by the greenery of the garden.”
Zagaria’s project, just a few steps away from the city’s bustling shopping district and the historic Cathedral of Saint Paul the Apostle
faced several design hurdles in the early stages due in part to renovations of the past
Zagaria described the preliminary layout as a series of extremely divided rooms that interrupted the home’s natural flow
The architect’s solution was ultimately to gut the two-level property and start fresh
the homeowners’ desire for a larger kitchen meant sacrificing the courtyard’s square footage
conceiving the industrial-like pocket of glass and black metal casings that flood the updated room with natural light
Zagaria replaced heavy stairs leading up to the second story
with a more minimalist design of floating treads
“The pre-existing one was made of concrete and did not seem suitable in relation to walls that were already so important,” he says
“I therefore imagined a lighter solution with cantilevered steps anchored inside the walls and always covered in wood
starting from the first which is a large backlit platform.”
Other natural materials such as large slabs of marble and porcelain stone ground the interior, infusing the rooms with warmth and texture. Complementing Zagaria’s pristine design at every turn are contemporary selections from Tuscan furniture brand Edra
the designer selected sculptural works that juxtapose the restitution of the home’s original architecture
creating an atmosphere that both paid homage to the past while being decidedly forward thinking

The Arizona Republic sent a brief questionnaire before the primary election to all the candidates in Arizona's 3rd Congressional District
which stretches across parts of Phoenix — including the communities of south Phoenix
They were asked about their positions on a variety of issues
Former Phoenix Vice Mayor Yassamin Ansari beat out two others in the Democratic primary
Republican Jeff Zink beat out one other candidate for the GOP nomination
Green Party candidate Alan Aversa ran unopposed
working one job should afford you a safe place to call home and essentials such as food and transportation – but that’s not the reality right now
I will expand upon my work delivering better housing policy and fight to make sure Phoenix gets its fair share of funding for housing choice vouchers
I will also support legislation that provides more pathways to home ownership
While traditional modeling shows a strong economy
it’s an economy that isn’t working for everyone
We must ensure that the next generation has access to quality jobs and that wages keep up with rising living costs
I’ll invest in public education and reduce student debt
and bring the public transit infrastructure that will get communities to the new
high-wage jobs created by the Biden Administration
Which recent political figure do you most admire
and why?As the youngest woman and first Iranian-American to serve on the Phoenix City Council
I’m now running to be the youngest woman in Congress and I owe much of that to the road that President Barack Obama paved for my generation
I was lucky to have now-State Senator Christine Marsh as my AP English teacher
It was her commitment to discussions focused on civic engagement in the classroom that led me to join the Arizona Democratic Party and the Obama campaign as a junior in high school
I’m very fortunate to have had that opportunity and am proud to continue to employ high school
and graduate students in my office and on my campaign
We’re organizing across Arizona’s 3rd Congressional District to get young people excited to vote
I’m looking forward to continuing that legacy in shaping our future together at every level of government
There are several things that Congress can do for Arizonans to make life more affordable
Lowering the costs of living for working families in areas like healthcare
and housing are where I plan to take direct action
We don’t have to wait until we hit a financial crisis or face another public health disaster to fund programming that lifts people out of poverty
I helped direct federal funding toward free mental health care
which provided tuition for hundreds of first-generation students pursuing a community college education
I unveiled a policy plan to make housing more attainable through the Housing Crisis Response Act (HCRA)
which invests in affordable housing and homeownership in order to level the playing field for many residents who are competing with out-of-state corporate investors
culture and spirit of our country benefit from immigration
There is bipartisan support for comprehensive immigration reform — and it is far past time that lawmakers move beyond political games and strive toward practical solutions that align with both the economic and humanitarian priorities of the United States
immigrants make up about one-sixth of Arizona's labor force and have exponential spending power
I will pursue legislation that helps address asylum processing
visa backlogs and a path to legal status for millions of undocumented immigrants
temporary protected status recipients and Dreamers
as we continue to invest in emerging technology domestically – including biotech and semiconductor manufacturing – we need immigration reform that allows the best and brightest from around the world to start their technology companies here in the United States
I earned degrees in international relations and security studies from Stanford and Cambridge universities
I served as a United Nations climate advisor
solidifying my view that climate change is the biggest threat to international security — a view shared by the Pentagon
We’re already seeing an increase in climate refugees abroad and domestically
Severe droughts and fire are wiping out homes in Southeast Asia
As these areas become more difficult to live in
many will look for a better life elsewhere
exacerbating already challenged immigration systems
we’re likely to see more conflict and unsafe conditions in previously peaceful areas
It’s of the utmost importance that the United States play a lead role in helping developing nations become more climate resilient through funding soft power programs like the International Affairs Budget
The climate crisis is the defining issue of our time
which is why I have dedicated my career toward advancing solutions to address it
I served as an advisor on the climate teams of two UN Secretaries-General
I helped pass the city’s first-ever Climate Action Plan
If we want to reduce the worst impacts of climate change and save lives
we need to reach 100% net zero by 2050 and establish programs that mitigate extreme heat
We need to go beyond the landmark legislation passed in DC recently
That means going all-in for a 100% clean energy grid
weatherizing homes and buildings to make them more efficient
and building a high-speed train and transit system both across the country and locally in our cities
We need to make it easier to get around without a car or a plane and we need federal investment to do that
Do you feel confident that the 2024 election will be held securely and fairly
what are your concerns?Arizona has one of the most secure and modern election systems in the nation
and I’m wholeheartedly confident fair elections will be conducted in 2024 – as they always have been
It’s why more than 75% of residents vote by mail here and why we’ve been recognized for our efforts in improving accessibility to the ballot box in our tribal nations
I’m deeply grateful for the election workers
and volunteers that protect our right to vote and the integrity of our political process
I believe that every single person deserves autonomy over their own body and their own medical decisions
I led the charge to pass an ordinance in Phoenix to make enforcement of Arizona’s archaic abortion ban the lowest priority for law enforcement – because no doctor
nurse or patient should go to jail for providing or receiving healthcare
I’ll fight tirelessly for legislation that guarantees the protection of reproductive rights nationwide for future generations
the safety of our children and families will continue to be a top priority
I grew up as part of the Columbine generation
with mass shooting drills at school and in college
I’ll never stop advocating for common-sense gun safety reform
We can and must reinstate the assault weapons ban
to keep dangerous weapons out of the wrong hands
Arizona election 2024: Here's everything to know about registering and voting
I'll focus on boosting domestic energy production
This includes opening up the Keystone pipeline and expanding drilling in America and become an export nation again
I'll attract manufacturing companies to Congressional District 3 by offering tax incentives by putting these companies on native American land
and supporting workforce development initiatives to create more good-paying jobs for our community
Trump and Ronald Reagan for their commitment to challenging the Washington establishment and revitalizing the economy
They each demonstrated strong leadership in addressing issues like military strength and inflation
should Congress take to make life more affordable for ordinary Arizonans?To make life more affordable for Arizonans
Congress should consider implementing tariffs on goods from other countries to protect domestic industries and jobs
prioritizing the revival of manufacturing within the U.S
while ensuring military components are exclusively produced domestically can stimulate job growth and reduce dependency on foreign imports
To make life more affordable for Arizonans
The biggest threats to national security are China's infiltration of military-age men into our country
They are stealing technology and creating vulnerabilities in our infrastructure
We must enact policies to prevent foreign ownership of American assets
We must tighten border security by enforcing legal immigration processes
This includes stricter regulations on our border policies to implement measures to ensure individuals enter the country legally
safeguarding national interests and sovereignty
What would you change about the US’ response to climate change
if anything?I advocate for withdrawing from the Paris Accord
emphasizing divine control over Earth's phenomena
Volcanic emissions surpass car exhaust annually
I have major concerns about the 2024 election's fairness
verified by IDs with pictures and signatures at polling stations
Mail-in ballots should be by request and signature and a copy of the DL should be placed inside the envelope
and paper ballots must be hand-counted at precincts
Results should be promptly available the next day
It's not our responsibility to solve global issues
Congress lacks authority to allocate taxpayer money internationally without American approval

“We leave this historic semi-final with our heads held high,” D’Aversa told Sport Mediaset.
where we made unforced errors against one of the best teams in Italy right now
If we have this same spirit in the remaining Serie A matches
then we can fight and prove that we deserve to stay in the top flight.”
D’Aversa left out several players including Sebastiano Esposito and Tino Anjorin
“I chose Solbakken because I wanted to see what he could do
while Konate and Kovalenko had a good game
D’Aversa had a very special message to conclude the interview, because he had experience as the coach of Lecce, so was particularly shaken by the news this morning that their historic physiotherapist Graziano Fiorita had died suddenly
“I want to send an embrace to the Fiorita family
He was someone I worked with and was very fond of.”
D’Aversa had also sent a message to Fiorita on his Instagram account earlier today
sad and profoundly pained by the loss of Graziano Fiorita
He was an excellent physiotherapist and a lovely person
calling me ‘maestro,’ but had unbeatable professional rigor and focus too
with the fun memory of our enjoyable video calls with Giovanni

NEW YORK ‒ Laundry Day, the pop-rock band of four musicians who met at their Manhattan high school, revealed exclusively to USA TODAY that the group's sixth studio album is coming this summer
"We're working on a ton of music right now," vocalist Jude Ciulla-Lipkin says
"We've been putting out like a song a month
We're trying to make the album of the summer
Ciulla-Lipkin immediately recalls an interaction with The 1975 as a seminal moment for the group
"We were working on this EP ('Light Up') and we were like
'Can we play it for you guys?' " the singer recalls the 2019 interaction
The 1975 agreed and invited Laundry Day onto its tour bus
'If you guys keep this up and lean into the "poppiness," you guys are gonna be so big.'
"Hearing that from one of our heroes was pretty incredible."
Laundry Day's latest music video is for the song "Damn Shame." The group uses several props in the piece, including a vintage cover of The Journal News when the New York Yankees won the World Series in 2000
The Journal News is part of the USA TODAY Network
There's also a familiar voice at the start of the video: Big Time Rush star Kendall Schmidt
"(Schmidt) was one of the first celebrities to interact with our videos," Ciulla-Lipkin says
noting the band "grew up on Big Time Rush." "Then he just stayed around
"My favorite part of (the band) is the live show," Pearl says
"When you're in front of so many people and they're singing back to you
"Going viral on TikTok is pretty fun too," Ciulla-Lipkin adds
"The dopamine from that is kind of unmatched."
