For sure.

Well, Julie, thank you very much.

We appreciate it.

here's what else you need to know today

On Sunday, the Republican chairman of the Senate Health Committee, Bill Cassidy, recommended that parents vaccinate their newborn babies against hepatitis B, despite a controversial vote on Friday by a federal panel to end that decades-long recommendation.

Cassidy said that the government's original recommendation, dating back to 1991, had prevented thousands of infections and warned that babies who do become infected with hepatitis B are at much higher risk of long-term health problems.

And later today, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in a major test of President Trump's power.

The case revolves around the question of whether Trump can fire a Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission, an independent agency, simply because she is not aligned with his political agenda.

An existing law says that the president can only remove commissioners for wrongdoing or for neglecting their duties.

A ruling in Trump's favor would overturn 90 years of legal precedent.
