            The American Civil Liberties Union filed a federal lawsuit challenging a state law that allows judges to extend probation for years when an offender fails to pay restitution in their cases. The lawsuit alleges the practice punishes people for being poor.

                Congress rolls back $9 billion in public media and foreign aid
                The House approved a Trump administration plan to rescind $9 billion in previously allocated funds, including $1.1 billion for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
            
        
    
    
            Immediately after the vote, NPR CEO Katherine Maher issued a statement calling the cut an "irreversible loss" to the public radio system. She said the effect would be "an unwarranted dismantling of beloved local civic institutions, and an act of Congress that disregards the public will."

                A Kansas family farm, barely getting by, grapples with Trumpβs cuts
                Like many of his rural neighbors in northeast Kansas, Jacob Thomas is trying to compensate for deep losses in federal funding. Thereβs worry and anger.
            
        
    
    
            But a decade of farming has taken a toll, and last fall Jacob began treatment for depression and anxiety. Sometimes, when the stress feels overwhelming, he can barely eat. #kansas

                Kansas has a housing shortage. One legislator is suggesting prison labor as a solution
                Kansas has a lack of housing in both rural and urban areas. The bill would focus on areas with βminimal building activity.β
            
        
    
    
            From @kmuw.bsky.social 
he corrections department could establish a program that delivers prison-made housing units to parts of the state that have experienced little to no building activity despite efforts to encourage development. #ksleg
