The National Agricultural Statistics Service says the U S cattle and calves inventory fell to 89.3 million as of January 1, down 15 million from a year earlier, with Texas Nebraska and Kansas seeing herd declines while cattle move to cooler northern and western states. The report notes broader drought impacts and hints at higher beef prices as demand grows overseas. Glenn Tonsor of Kansas State University says the shift is logical and expected, forecasting continued price pressure for consumers.
Kansas lawmakers consider a voluntary designation on the back of state driver licenses to show military service and combat history. Rep.

Davis blames last year’s tax cuts by Brownback for the shortfall, while Republicans argue job growth and rising revenues offset the projection. House bills target anti union actions and payroll deductions with opposition citing lack of proof of pressure, and a constitutional amendment to change judicial selection appears unlikely in the House. Lawrence Chamber participants included Sen Marci Francisco and Reps Ballard and Wilson.
