Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said on CBS Sunday the effects of climate change are "already upon us" and affecting the industry he oversees.

The Republican-controlled U.S. House has just a few days to vote on a bipartisan Senate bill that would expand compensation for victims of the Trinity Test — the world's first atomic explosion.
Why it matters: A federal law, which awards financial reparations to people who lived downwind of nuclear testing sites, will expire June 7, and people in New Mexico near where the Trinity Test occurred aren't included.
