39 days, then silence broke. Here's what changed 🚌
Good morning, Jackson County. After 39 days of empty bus stops and frustrated commuters, the JTRAN strike is finally over — and honestly, that news deserves its own victory lap. Local riders should see buses rolling again soon, which is the kind of resolution that makes a Tuesday feel a little lighter. On the gridiron, Wellston rolled into Oak Hill and made a serious early-season statement, handing the Oaks a 35-6 loss in Week 1. Oak Hill will be looking to bounce back fast.
Off the field, a former Jackson High School girls basketball standout is headed to Walsh University to finish her college career — a fun next chapter for a local hooper. Nationally, the U.S. debt clock crossed $40 trillion, trade tensions are still simmering, and SpaceX keeps hitting speed bumps. Fresh local listings are also waiting over in Real Estate.
