1:08Now PlayingFive stories to know for July 13: Texas Democrats, U.S. West wildfires, South Africa protests, COVID vaccine mixing
1. Dozens of Democratic lawmakers left Texas as part of an orchestrated move to derail their Republican colleagues' efforts to pass new voting restrictions and other conservative measures during a special legislative session.
2. President Joe Biden, under pressure from civil rights leaders, travels to Philadelphia to issue a strong appeal for sweeping voting rights legislation that is stalled in Congress due largely to Republicans.
3. The U.S. West endured a fourth day of scorching heat as temperatures again threatened to shatter records, major wildfires burned nearly unchecked in drought-stricken Oregon and power grids strained under the pressure.
4. Rioters looted shops and threw stones at police as days of violent protests triggered by the jailing of former president Jacob Zuma spread across South Africa.
5. The World Health Organization’s chief scientist advised against people mixing and matching COVID-19 vaccines from different manufacturers, calling it a ‘dangerous trend’ since there was little data available about the health impact.
