- Description
- The Supreme Court sided with the Trump administration Monday in a case over President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting mail-in voting, though it remains unclear how much can be implemented before the fast-approaching midterm elections.
The decision leaves room for additional court challenges that could further slow Trump’s order, and other similar cases have already been filed. The U.S. Postal Service laid out how it would implement the order last week, but time is running short to impose major changes with some states beginning to send mail ballots to voters in just a few weeks.
The Supreme Court’s conservative majority didn’t decide the legality of Trump’s order, instead ruling that states who sued did not have the legal right to challenge it.
Political editor Dennis Welch looks at possible immediate impacts in Arizona.

- Phoenix faces another dangerous stretch of record-challenging heat, with temperatures expected to climb as high as 116 degrees this week.
STORY: https://azfamily.news/3ktnp3ac

But the relief will not last: Tuesday could reach 114 degrees, threatening Phoenix’s 2011 record of 113. Wednesday is forecast to be the week’s hottest day at 116 degrees, with more record-challenging heat expected Thursday. An Extreme Heat Warning remains in effect through Saturday, while an ozone-related Air Quality Alert affects the Valley and central Arizona on Tuesday. A small rain chance returns late next weekend into early next week as the weather pattern shifts.

- The Humane Society of Yuma is urgently seeking fosters and donations after 28 rescued animals pushed its already-full shelter to the limit.
STORY: https://azfamily.news/2p9y87x6
The Humane Society of Yuma took in 22 cats and six dogs after police and animal control found them living in poor conditions at a local home. Officials say the sudden emergency intake has stretched the shelter beyond its existing capacity. The rescue followed an agency-assist call from animal control during the difficult summer season, when adoptions and volunteer turnout often slow down. Shelter leaders are now asking the community for monetary donations and temporary foster homes to help free vital kennel space. The animals were discovered while Yuma police responded to an unrelated call at the residence.

- Traffic in the Strait of Hormuz has been disrupted for weeks as Iran issues warnings to countries working with the U.S., specifically challenging Bulgaria for allowing its territory to be used for Israeli or American military action against Iran and saying it reserves the right to strike the source of any attack under international law. The White House says “economic D-Day” against Iran began, with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent calling it the biggest economic offensive ever leveled against an enemy, while a report says U.S. sanctions on Iran are the most expensive in history. Iran’s currency is at a record low versus the dollar, and Bessent says Operation Economic Outcast aims to force Iran into a choice between global isolation or rejoining the global economy, warning that countries trading with Iran could face economic blowback as President Donald Trump threatens to use every agency and authority.

A dog with the Arizona Humane Society was suffering from dorsal thermal necrosis, an intense burn triggered by direct sunlight and ambient heat when it's trapped in a dog's fur. Veterinarians say it is not a surface burn, but instead, actual heat in the air is causing the wound. David Caltabiano explains more on the hidden danger and how you can protect your pooch.

STORY: https://azfamily.news/3a9e7e67
Arizona is preparing for a significant reduction in its share of Colorado River water as drought and high demand strain the river system. Two of the nation’s largest reservoirs have reached historic lows, prompting federal action aimed at conserving water. Experts say compost can improve soil health, helping yards and gardens absorb and hold water longer. Phoenix is expanding composting efforts through partnerships that bring food-waste collection and Mill bins to thousands of households. Supporters say turning food scraps into compost can reduce landfill waste while helping Valley residents make every drop count.

The long-term outlook remains uncertain as leaders weigh costly options to secure a reliable water supply. The plan covers only the next two years, leaving major questions about the next decade.

- Arizona faces the largest Colorado River cuts under a new federal plan, though leaders say tap water access should remain protected.
Federal officials finalized the conservation plan after Colorado River states and tribes failed to agree on shared reductions. Arizona will lose about 30% of its overall river allocation, while Central Arizona Project deliveries will be cut by 50%. Cities will feel the impact differently depending on how much Colorado River water they use. Phoenix officials say the city has spent years preparing backup supplies from the Salt and Verde rivers. Officials warn even deeper cuts remain possible if Lake Mead and Lake Powell do not recover.

A stubborn weather pattern will keep unseasonable heat locked over Arizona through the weekend and all of next week. High temperatures are expected to reach 110 to 114 degrees, roughly 10 degrees above average, with record highs and unusually warm overnight lows possible. Thunderstorms will remain mostly isolated and confined to the high country at times. The pattern may not ease until September. Despite the heat, Arizona’s 30-day September rainfall outlook remains positive as models track potential Gulf of California moisture and even a possible tropical-system remnant later in the month.
