States gain extra time to spend CHIP funds
Thirty nine states narrowly avoided losing federal money for children's health insurance after a budget delay left CHIP funds in limbo. Congress allowed states to keep 60 percent of unspent funds and distribute 40 percent to others, with New Mexico projecting a gain of about 35.3 million while California and Texas faced potential losses. New York reports over 530,000 uninsured children enrolled and aims to maintain momentum as California and Texas work to expand and enroll more children.

Nebraska license plate books disappear under new laws
Rural Nebraskans will lose their cherished license plate books after June 1 under new federal and state rules banning public access to motor vehicle records. The move ends a decades old practice used to identify drivers, neighbors, and suspects, with some groups planning one last county edition in 2001.
