Last update: 8 minutes ago

Aerospace & Defense: PZL Mielec in Poland has started production of Europe’s first Sikorsky S-70 Firehawk for the Czech Republic, boosting rapid all-weather firefighting and cross-border response. Manufacturing & Materials: Cambium’s SHD composites unit is expanding with a new Mooresville, N.C. facility that will quadruple U.S. production capacity for defense, space and aviation materials. Florida Jobs Watch: Florida’s unemployment rate fell to 4.7% in June, down from 4.8%, with job gains in restaurants, hotels, health care, transportation and warehousing. Food & Regulatory: FDA is lowering the federal pasteurized orange juice standard (Brix 10.5% to 10%), while General Mills recalled 554,400 Pillsbury Bread Rolls in Florida and other states due to possible glass contamination. Pharma Antitrust: A multistate coalition reached a $29.6M Glenmark settlement over alleged generic drug price-fixing; eligible buyers may seek compensation. Energy & Infrastructure: Cypress Creek and Google broke ground on the Steel River Energy Center in Mississippi County, targeting up to 2.5 GW solar and 2.9 GWh storage by 2029. Aviation/Space: SpaceX’s Starship test attempt was scrubbed in Texas after an engine hold during startup, as the company pushes toward operational missions from Florida. Local Governance: Jacksonville’s aviation authority is weighing legal action against the city over airport budget control and a planned aviation-mechanics program expansion at Cecil. Workforce/Policy: Senators Crapo and Moody (with Florida’s Ashley Moody) introduced the PRESS Act to target pill presses and precursor chemicals used to make counterfeit fentanyl pills.
