The news to know for Wednesday, April 22, 2026!

What to know about a last-minute extension of the U.S.-Iran ceasefire: how it changed from what President Trump had said just hours earlier, and why there are still questions about what comes next.

Also, for the third time this month, a member of the U.S. House decided to step down. We'll explain.

And what the new nominee for Fed Chair had to say about A.I., interest rates, and independence — all at yesterday's confirmation hearing.

Plus, why the military's vaccine requirements are changing, what's being called a drastic measure to limit students' screen time, and how to get in on today's ticket drop for the World Cup. (The tournament will be here in the U.S. in just 50 days.)
