AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Blue Star Museums Free Summer Visits: Military families can get free admission to participating museums nationwide (including the U.S. Virgin Islands) from Armed Forces Day, May 16, through Labor Day, Sept. 7—up to five family members per active-duty service member. Medicaid Fraud Crackdown: The Trump administration is pressing states to strengthen Medicaid Fraud Control Units, warning it could withhold federal Medicaid-related payments (including $1.3 billion flagged for California) if oversight isn’t serious enough. FBI License Plate Tracking Plans: The FBI is moving toward nationwide, near real-time vehicle tracking using license plate readers, with contracts up to $36 million across the U.S. and territories. USVI Freight Disruption Watch: Delegate Stacey E. Plaskett says her office is in contact with the Coast Guard and Puerto Rico Ports Authority over docking restrictions affecting Water Spirit Freight Services, a key island-to-island cargo link. Health Alerts & Sun Safety: A CDC report shows dengue cases in the U.S. surged in 2024, largely tied to travel from the Caribbean (including Puerto Rico and the USVI), while a new EWG sunscreen guide says only about 20% of tested products meet “safe and effective” standards.
