The Federal Fair Housing Law Gains Strength and Flaws
A commentary on the 1988 expansion of the federal fair housing law by Steven J. Sacks notes new protections for the handicapped and families with children. It explains HUDs enhanced enforcement powers and the history of state and local participation through the Fair Housing Assistance Program, rising from 23 to 113 recognized agencies. It warns of potential strains in intergovernmental cooperation as power shifts to federal oversight.

Intergovernmental civil rights partnership at risk
Discrimination complaint processing rose from under 10 percent in 1979 to over 70 percent in 1988. HUD has invested over $30 million to build this intergovernmental cooperation, but the 1988 law and HUD regulations may force changes by states and localities. If state and local bodies fail to achieve equivalency by 1992, the federal framework could undermine decades of collaboration.

Kansas Medicaid rule draws fire from hospital official
Duncan Rose of Riverside Hospital in Wichita says the Medicaid policy change leaves mentally ill and behavior-disordered patients without timely in patient care. State officials defend the move, citing studies and an upcoming funding shift to expand residential programs. In Pleasanton, a 65 year old woman Anna Hall was killed when a Burlington Northern train struck her pickup on US-69, a passenger injured.
