1. Right now, the Utah legislature is discussing a bill that would strip Planned Parenthood of its medical license and make it more difficult for women to access abortions. What should be done about abortion?
2. 89-year-old, five-term senator Dianne Feinstein announced that she will not seek re-election in two years. The constitution has a minimum age for serving in office (25 years old for the House of Representatives, 30 years old for the Senate, and 35 years old for President), should there be a maximum age?
3. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints settled an allegation with the Securities Exchange Commission that the church created shell companies to avoid disclosing the church’s investments. This has been the topic of considerable debate since the whistleblower allegations were filed last year. Is this a big deal, little deal, or no deal? 

Big Question: We had another tragic mass shooting this week in Michigan. The gun violence archive puts the number of Mass shootings in the US at over 70 so far in 2023. What should be done to reduce mass shootings in the United States?
