The Public News Service Tuesday afternoon update.

I'm Mike Clifford.

President Donald Trump says Iran has fully and completely agreed to nuclear inspections long into the future.

That after Tehran denied making the concession as part of talks on a permanent end of the war between the two countries, NBC notes the discrepancy over what has been agreed emerged after President J.D.

Vance echoed the positive assessment of mediators following the first round of high-level negotiations in Switzerland.

Meantime, a Muslim leader from Milwaukee, Wisconsin is back at home after spending literally three months in immigration detention at the Clay County Jail in Brazil, Indiana.

Our Joe Ulory has more.

Salah Sarsour, president of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee, was released by a federal judge.

It came days after about 150 people gathered outside the jail for an interfaith vigil organized by Jewish, Muslim, and Christian supporters.

Makla Bird, a Jewish community member who helped organize the event, said supporters were thrilled to see Sarsour reunited with his family.

We're absolutely thrilled that Salah is home with his family.

His health was rapidly deteriorating.

We also know that he was being detained for unjust reasons, and he shouldn't have been in there in the first place.

Federal officials argued Sarsour's detention was lawful, but a federal judge ruled he should be released while his case moves forward.

And a federal judge says historical and science-based displays removed from America's national parks and monuments must be restored by the 4th of July.

A coalition of conservationists filed a lawsuit after nearly 60 items, including signage about climate change and Wabanaki history in Maine's Acadia National Park, were deemed as improper partisan ideology by the Trump administration and taken down.

Bill Wade is the executive director of the Association of National Park Rangers, one of the plaintiffs in the case.

He says park employees consider education a large part of their job.

One of their primary responsibilities is to serve the visitor, and that includes giving them accurate information, even about things that sometimes we're not very proud of.

The Trump administration must also give the court a weekly update on the restoration process.

The National Park Service and Interior Department have filed an appeal.

And since the start of President Trump's second term, the White House and Congress have been overhauling federal student financial aid with key changes taking effect July 1st.

Oregon student loan ombuds Lane Thompson warns most will face higher monthly bills and says people need to know their options now.

Go and read about what different plans are available, which ones are going to be becoming available, which are going away, because it's a lot of information and it's going to be slightly different for each person.

A federal court struck down the SAVE program, a Biden-era policy capping undergraduate loan payments at 5% of disposable income.

The change means 7.5 million borrowers need to switch to new plants.

Last fall, recent college grad unemployment hit a five-year high, while employment among youth adults in jobs most exposed to artificial intelligence dipped.

Research shows jobs most likely to be replaced by AI over the next decade include customer service, accounting and software development.

Noah Hurd is an aspiring software engineer that just graduated from the University of Washington, Tacoma.

He says despite the recent wave of layoffs in his field, he is optimistic that employers are seeing the drawbacks that come from reliance on AI.

We are seeing instances where it's being introduced into new fields where it could really change workflows.

Regardless, it's here to stay.

I have to figure out how to make use of it to be a better developer, to be a better engineer.

Labor experts say AI hasn't replaced much entry-level or white-collar work yet, even as it adds more uncertainty to an already tight job market.

But young workers could be hit hardest.

Next, heart disease is the leading cause of death in both Missouri and the nation, claiming more than 15,000 lives in the Show Me State each year.

New research suggests rising rates of high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes among women could drive even more heart attacks, strokes, and heart failure in the decades ahead.

Dr. Karen Joint-Maddox, a cardiologist at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, says the most common risk factor for heart disease is high blood pressure.

The tricky thing about high blood pressure is that you can't feel it.

So oftentimes people will have high blood pressure for years before it's ever found.

That's slightly less true in women because women are more likely to go to the doctor for other reasons.

She stresses that many heart attacks and strokes can be prevented through regular screenings, early treatment of conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity, and developing healthy habits like eating well and staying active.

Finally, a proposal to explore for rare earth minerals in Montana's Bitterroot Valley is igniting fierce opposition and opponents want the Trump administration to stop fast-tracking it.

The Sheep Creek mine would sit within the headwaters of the West Fork of the Bitterroot River in southwestern Montana.

Critics say that's the worst possible location, and the environmental damage would affect everything downstream.

Alex Oconius is with the Bitterroot Water Partnership.

Water brings people together in the Bitterroot Valley.

A river runs through it, through our valley.

Our cornerstone economies rely on clean and abundant water.

The project is on the Fast 41 list, which fast-tracks the permitting process for infrastructure projects the federal government deems critical.
