## Resource

Heavy smoke from wildfires blazing in Canada and Minnesota is engulfing large swaths of the Midwest and Northeast U.S. this week, impacting air quality as millions of people are exposed to hazardous levels of air pollution. Taylor Farms on Friday said it is "voluntarily removing" iceberg lettuce sourced from central Mexico after it was linked to one of the largest outbreaks of cyclosporiasis in the U.S. in recent years. President Trump addressed the nation Thursday night, in which he raised new allegations regarding China's access to U.S. voter data. He revisited accusations about voter registration fraud in the U.S., exaggerated claims about dead and noncitizen voting and claimed voting machines are "easily compromised.” And he made other pronouncements about the state of voting in America.
