Asked about the meeting with teachers union representatives, Fetterman said in a statement through his office that they “had a spirited conversation about our collective frustration with the Trump administration’s cuts to our education system.”

The United States and the UK are expected to announce a trade deal on Thursday that will lower the burden of President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Trump is scheduled to speak from the Oval Office on Thursday morning.
