The bill would expressly prohibit anyone from denying “full faith and allegiance” to an out-of-state marriage based on sex, race, nationality, or national origin, regardless of the laws of any individual state.

It’s true that Pogačar overtook Vingegaard on the summit to take his third stage win of his tour, but although he celebrated with his usual vigor when he crossed the line, it was hard to shake the feeling that this amounted to a prize consolation. His path to a third consecutive overall victory remains as prohibitive now as it was before the day began. He remains second overall, 2:18 behind Vingegaard....

The staff of the restaurant called the police, the Sécurité publique de la MRC des Collines-de-l’Outaouais, because they were worried to see that the child was still alone.
