The U.S. Border Patrol on Washington's Olympic Peninsula is criticized for involving itself in local police matters, such as responding to drunk drivers and domestic disputes. Data suggests that none of the arrests in the Port Angeles area are related to terrorism or illegal immigration from Canada. Additionally, a report claims 91% of Canadians are "toxic" due to Bisphenol A (BPA) exposure.

In a significant policy reversal, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg announced concerns regarding the safety of Bisphenol A (BPA) in plastic bottles and food packaging. The agency now warns that BPA may affect the brain and prostate glands of infants and children, despite declaring it safe in 2008. Mothers are advised to limit exposure by avoiding scratched plastics and not heating liquids in BPA-containing vessels.
