NBA Draft, immigration legislation, Kate Spade's funeral: 5 things to know Thursday

House settles in for vote on immigration legislation

On the heels of an executive order signed Wednesday by President Donald Trump that he said ends the separation of migrant families at the border, the House is expected to vote Thursday on its own comprehensive immigration legislation. Two competing proposals up for vote include; a hard-line proposal favored by conservatives, which would essentially enshrine the family separation policy into law; and a compromise bill put forward by House Speaker Paul Ryan that would seek to end the separations. If both bills fail — Democrats are expected to oppose both GOP bills — it would further spotlight the deep Republican divisions on a key election issue just five months before voters head to the polls.

FreedomPop launches its unlimited $10-a-month plan

For those looking to save on mobile phone service, FreedomPop will be launching an unlimited $10 monthly plan offering talk, text and data Thursday through Unreal Mobile. The data plan may feel too good to be true, and it is, as the plan only offers one gigabyte of high-speed data — to keep using will result in slower speeds. The new deal quickly follows Sprint's short-lived $15-a-month plan that it yanked this month.  Stephen Stokols, CEO of FreedomPop, says his rate isn't a promotion rate but is here to stay.
