DALLAS — Buoyed by the success of their counterparts in Kansas, Texas activists are determined to use November’s midterm elections to kick-start the restoration of abortion rights.

But they have a much heavier lift than progressives in Kansas, where women voters powered the approval of a referendum in favor of abortion rights. Texas ballots won’t include an up-or-down question on abortion, but there is a way to reverse the state’s ban: Fire Republican incumbent Gov. Greg Abbott and deliver the House and Senate to Democrats.

European powers said they have “serious doubts” about Iran’s commitment to a new nuclear agreement after negotiations stretching almost 18 months.

Payment processor Visa Inc. says it plans to start separately categorizing sales at gun shops. The move disclosed Saturday marks a major win for gun control advocates. They say it will help better track suspicious surges of gun sales that could be a preclude to a mass shooting. But gun rights advocates have argued such a step would unfairly segregate legal gun sales when most sales do not lead to mass shootings. Visa said it would adopt the International Organization for Standardization’s new merchant code for gun sales, just announced Friday. Until Friday, gun store sales were considered “general merchandise.” Visa’s adoption is significant as the largest payment network.

California’s fight against global warming is on a collision course with its rickety grid. The state aims to end net greenhouse gas emissions by 2045, forcing many things that burn fossil fuels — particularly vehicles, factories and buildings — to switch to electricity. And yet California, th…

Tyler Perry has directed his first screenplay, 26 years after writing it. “A Jazzman’s Blues,” which is premiering at the Toronto International Film Festival, was Perry’s first stab at screenwriting long before Madea made him a media mogul, back when he was pouring what little money he had into less successful Atlanta stage shows. After directing numerous films, dozens of TV episodes and expanding his Tyler Perry Studios empire in Atlanta, Perry has returned to that old script, without hardly changing a word, for his first film for Netflix. “A Jazzman’s Blues” begins streaming Sept. 23.

Iga Swiatek has defeated Ons Jabeur 6-2, 7-6 (5) to win her first U.S. Open championship and third Grand Slam title overall. The No. 1-ranked Swiatek cemented her status as a dominant figure in women’s tennis by triumphing at the tournament that is expected to be the last of Serena Williams’ career. Swiatek’s victory Saturday improved her record in tour-level matches to 55-7 with seven trophies in 2022. She also won the French Open in June and is the first woman since 2016 to collect two major titles in a season. Jabeur is now 0-2 in Slam finals. She was the runner-up at Wimbledon in July.

NEW YORK — The Yankees came out of the gate firing on all cylinders. After another lifeless loss on Friday, the Bombers seemed like an entirely different team in their 10-3 win on Saturday.

Cameron Rising threw for 254 yards in the first half, Dalton Kincaid had 107 yards receiving and two touchdowns and No. 13 Utah routed Southern Utah 73-7 on Saturday. Coming off an opening loss last week at Florida, Utah scored on nine consecutive drives, including eight touchdowns, over the final three quarters against the FCS Thunderbirds (1-1). The Utes had 599 yards of total offense. Southern Utah started the game with an unsuccessful onside kick that led to a 13-yard touchdown run by Tavion Thomas. Southern Utah got a break when Thomas fumbled later in the first quarter and Rodrick Ward recovered. On the next play, Grady Robison tied it at 7 on a quarterback draw that went for 28 yards.

Four Republicans seeking to overhaul how elections are run by becoming their state’s chief election official say they are fighting against a corrupt system. They're even pointing a finger at mysterious forces within their own party. The candidates are Arizona’s Mark Finchem, Michigan’s Kristina Karamo, Nevada’s Jim Marchant and New Mexico’s Audrey Trujillo. They appeared at a conference Saturday at a South Florida hotel. The event featured numerous speakers falsely claiming the 2020 election was stolen from former President Donald Trump. Marchant, an ardent Trump supporter, says the candidates' "biggest enemy is our own party.”

Karen Bass reports Saturday that Los Angeles police were called after she arrived home the night before to find there had been a break-in.

Her campaign released her statement.

Will Reichard kicked a 33-yard field goal with 10 seconds left, and No. 1 Alabama overcame a stifling defensive effort by Texas to earn a hard-fought 20-19 victory. Bryce Young was hit and harassed by the Texas defense for most of the game, but the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback put together a big fourth quarter. He had an off-balance touchdown pass and a 20-yard run to set up the winning kick. Texas lost quarterback Quinn Ewers to a shoulder injury in the first quarter but rode an inspired defense and four field goals from Bert Auburn to a late-game lead.
