Plus we learn about new contact tracing efforts about to launch in Harris County.
Also this hour: When could schools reopen and students and educators return to some semblance of normal? And what would that new normal be like? A new report called A Blueprint for Back to School offers some guidance for educators.

Renee Knake Jefferson from the UH Law Center discusses the book she co-authored, Shortlisted: Women in the Shadows of the Supreme Court.
