Budget squeeze hits Jackson County Legal Services Bureau
The Jackson County Legal Services Bureau faces a possible 38 percent cut in federal funding for the year starting Wednesday. If finalized, the grant would be about 52 000 dollars, forcing no raises, no summer interns, reduced staff, and minimal legal aid for the poor. The agency seeks alternative funding and plans protest letters to Chicago headquarters and state officials.
