In our news wrap Tuesday, an FDA advisory panel voted to recommend that the CDC approve Moderna's vaccine for kids 6 to 17 years old, the Labor Department says wholesale prices were up 10.8 percent from a year ago, the House approved expanding Supreme Court security, Ukraine suffers heavy losses in Sievierodonetsk, and Britain pressed ahead with plan to deport asylum-seekers to Rwanda.

The challenges for U.S. foreign policy at this fraught moment in history are many, from Russia's invasion of Ukraine and energy production and human rights in the Middle East to competition with China and Iran's nuclear program. All of those issues are being tackled by America's top diplomat at the State Department. Secretary of State Antony Blinken joins Judy Woodruff to discuss in more detail.

Teachers from around the country told our team of producers they have long been frustrated with the larger public response to shootings and school safety and many have been particularly angry about the way this has long played out in Washington and state capitals. Tragically, the shooting in Uvalde reinforced and exacerbated many of these concerns. Here's what some of them had to say.

If Congress approves a bipartisan agreement on guns and school safety, it would provide new resources to try and prevent shootings like the massacre in Uvalde. That would likely mean new money for mental health care, violence prevention and training for educators. But many educators want to see more action. Becky Pringle, National Education Association president, joins Stephanie Sy to discuss.

The House select committee's investigation into the Jan. 6 insurrection is one of the highest-profile investigations of its kind since the commission on the 9/11 attacks nearly 20 years ago. That bipartisan group worked for almost two years, holding public hearings before releasing its findings. It was chaired by former New Jersey Gov. Thomas Kean, who joins Judy Woodruff to discuss.

There have been several recent incidents where far-right, white supremacist groups have targeted LGBTQ people, including last weekend at a pride event in Idaho and a during a drag story hour at a library in California. J.M. Berger, a writer and researcher who focuses on extremist ideologies and has written four books on the topic, joins William Brangham to discuss.
