Debt ceiling deal: What's in and what's out of the agreement to avert US default: Tuesday, May 30

The details of the deal between President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy were released Sunday in the form of a 99-page bill that would suspend the nation's debt limit through 2025 to avoid a federal default while limiting government spending.

The Democratic president and Republican speaker are trying to win over lawmakers to the plan in time to avert a default that would shake the global economy. But Congress will be scrutinizing and debating the legislation, which also includes provisions to fund medical care for veterans, change work requirements for some recipients of government aid and streamline environmental reviews for energy projects.

The Union County Sheriff's Office said three more suspects were arrested and are facing charges for an alleged "senior prank" at Sun Valley High School that caused thousands of dollars in damage.

Cameron Pope, 18, Jacob Garay, 18, and Mark Aponte, 19, were taken into custody and will face multiple charges including a felony charge of damaging computers and a misdemeanor charge of injury to personal property. Their bonds were set at $5,000.

They join two other suspects, 21-year-old Javier Sheffield and 18-year-old Nalen Geoffery who were arrested last week. They're all accused of damaging the high school's computer equipment and electrical panels.
