Dozens of students were temporarily suspended at a school in Minnesota on Wednesday after they questioned the safety of vaccines.  The Rochester School district removed 71 students from class after they failed to show that they had received their vaccinations, as part of a plan to enforce a controversial state law that requires all school children to be immunized. CBS reports: Students had to submit the proper paperwork to the school district in order to prove they are exempt by Wednesday.

Today at 6pm ET, three federal appeals judges will step into the spotlight in a highly anticipated oral argument over whether to reinstate President Donald Trump’s executive order on immigration and refugees. During the brief, hour-long session in which the two adversarial sides will be given 30 minutes to argue their position by phone, the DOJ will ask the judges to reverse a restraining order issued by a Seattle judge last week that blocked enforcement of the travel ban.
