Morning Docket

Morning Docket: 06.08.22

* Everybody’s smoking on the weekend: DC makes it illegal to fire employees for using the marijuanas. [The Hill] * Curious to know how gun reform could affect the boys in blue? Check it out. [NPR] * The UK is launching civil suits against Russia. Looks like lawsuits are war by other means. [Law.com] * We live in a timeline where Ben & Jerry’s is doing more to prevent gun violence than many politicians. That said, a Thought and Prayers flavor probably wouldn’t taste like much. [CNBC] * She get it with her mama! Mother/Daughter duo graduate with law degrees from Birmingham School of Law. I almost hyperlinked a song to the first sentence but decided against it; it was a little Juvenile.  [Alabama News Center]
