Luigi Mangione, accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in 2024, ultimately pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges on August 14, 2026, after ABC News initially reported that a plea agreement was expected. Fresno County has launched a high-stakes legal fight over the Better Roads, Safe Streets transportation-tax initiative, arguing that AB 1923 unlawfully forced a local measure onto the November ballot.

The ultimate decision will likely rest with a judge in the coming weeks.

Taylor Farms is recalling more than a dozen products containing jalapeños as part of an expanding salmonella outbreak that has sickened 345 people across 27 states. The recall affects products sold at major retailers including Walmart, Target, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and Kroger. A UK radio station, Radio Caroline, was found to have violated broadcasting rules after it accidentally aired announcements claiming that King Charles III had died, followed by the British national anthem and approximately 16 minutes of silence. The incident prompted an investigation by media regulator Ofcom. In a dramatic last-minute reversal, Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer signed a city-only half-cent sales tax measure, ensuring it will appear on the Nov. 3, 2026 ballot, despite previously saying he would not move forward if the countywide Better Roads, Safe Streets transportation tax qualified for the ballot.

Guest Host: John Gerardi GV Wire reports that Fresno city leaders are exploring a possible city sales tax measure for the November ballot following the likely delay of the countywide Better Roads, Safe Streets transportation initiative. With Measure C set to expire in 2027, some council members are considering a local funding solution that could help maintain revenue for city priorities if a countywide replacement remains stalled. The House of Representatives voted to approve the Sunshine Protection Act, a bill that would end the twice-yearly clock changes and make Daylight Saving Time (DST) permanent nationwide, moving a long-running debate one step closer to resolution. The bill passed with bipartisan support and now heads to the Senate.

Is the city's new $5 downtown parking program worth it to Denverites? After Mayor Mike Johnston came on the show last week to talk up his grand new plan to get people downtown, our dear listeners had a lot of thoughts and feelings about it.

Jill and Bree also discuss the Glendale City Council's “no build” vote on bus rapid transit on Colorado Boulevard, the state of the Denver Deserves Sidewalks initiative, and more. Bree mentioned Jill's last appearance on the pod, when they discussed the idea of establishing parking benefits districts.

The EMS One-Stop Blood on Board series moves to the federal level in Episode 3, exploring how the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) grant program is opening new funding pathways for prehospital blood programs. Host Rob Lawrence is joined by three leaders directly involved in building regional blood capability through federal funding. Julie Stilley, PhD, is an EMS researcher at the University of Missouri, whose team secured a $4.6 million SS4A demonstration grant focused on advanced post-crash care, including prehospital blood administration. Jason White represents the Mid-America Regional Council in Kansas City, a multi-jurisdictional regional planning organization coordinating EMS, trauma systems, hospitals and transportation partners around a regional whole blood strategy. Mark Heath is chief of EMS for the Kansas City Kansas Fire Department and one of the operational leaders preparing to launch whole blood in the field as part of the Kansas City regional effort. Rather than focusing solely on clinical practice, this episode examines the realities of applying for, winning and administering federal grant funding. The guests discuss building regional coalitions, engaging blood banks, developing standardized protocols, navigating compliance requirements and preparing operational rollouts. From Missouri's $4.6 million demonstration grant, to Kansas City's regional planning initiative, this episode provides a practical roadmap for EMS leaders looking to transform roadway safety funding into lifesaving trauma care capability.

EXCLUSIVE: Fresno County Supervisor Garry Bredefeld discusses how the 'Better Roads, Safe Streets' initiative failed its random sampling test of the signatures submitted by backers. The initiative will now have to undergo a manual tally of all 32,000 signatures to qualify for the ballot. However, the timeline is tight and it's not sure it will make it to the ballot. Supporters may have to ask the Board of Supervisors for help. Will they? John Gerardi sits in for John Broeske.

In this special 2026 EMS Week episode of the JEMS podcast, Mike Brown hosts Gamunu “Gam” Wijetunge from NHTSA's Office of EMS and Dr. Nicholas Cozzi, an emergency physician from Chicago. The conversation centers on a significant shift in emergency medicine: moving high-level clinical interventions like blood transfusions directly to the point of injury. With roadway fatalities hovering around 40,000 annually, NHTSA is prioritizing "post-crash care" by aggressive funding through the Safe Streets and Roads for All grant program.   Beyond the equipment, the guests discuss the power of data linkage between dispatch centers and hospitals to measure bystander intervention and long-term patient survival. Dr. Cozzi highlights the human element, sharing how simple acts—like sending letters of praise to field clinicians—boost morale and strengthen the bond between medical directors and front-line providers. From grant deadlines on May 26th to Save a Life Day demonstrations in D.C., this episode outlines how federal advocacy and local clinical excellence are converging to save more lives in the field.

Statewide elections are approaching this Saturday, but there's confusion over which votes will count. While residents will weigh in on ballot amendments, the Senate race and judgeships, Gov. Jeff Landry postponed the U.S. House race after the Supreme Court deemed the state's congressional map unconstitutional. Still, the candidates remain on the ballot, and there are lawsuits circulating that advocate for these votes to still count. Stephanie Grace, the Times-Picayune/New Orleans Advocate's editorial director and columnist, joins us to break down the confusion. According to New Orleans Police Department traffic reports, at least four bicyclists and over two dozen pedestrians were killed in motor vehicle crashes in New Orleans last year. This doesn't include those injured in such accidents.Just over a month ago, the city council adopted the Safe Streets and Roads for All Safety Action Plan to eliminate all traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2041. Allene La Spina, executive director of Bike Easy, joins us for more on this plan. This weekend, Bayou Boogaloo, the annual May festival, will celebrate its 20th anniversary. But this year, the semi-aquatic musical festival comes with major cuts and new locations. Festival founder Jared Zeller joins us for more on this year's event and why they're scaling back. —Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Bob Pavlovich.

Morgantown Sicth Ward Councilor Mark Downs on the Tuesday, April 28 6 p.m. meeting at City Hall on the increase to the Safe Streets and safe Community user fee. Jim Garrity from AAA Mid-Atlantic on gas prices. 

Why does it still feel so dangerous just to walk or bike through this city? Help is on the way! The City Council has now approved a major Safe Streets for All plan, with a goal of cutting traffic deaths in half by 2031 and eliminating them by 2041. That means real money, real corridor upgrades, and finally some urgency. Allene La Spina, Executive Director of Bike Easy, joins Ian Hoch to talk about it.

Guest Host: John Gerardi A Fresno County judge has denied the City of Fresno’s request to evict the nonprofit operator of Granite Park, ruling that too many facts are in dispute to decide the case without a trial. The decision clears the way for a trial beginning April 27, focusing on disagreements over rent, utilities, lease terms, and facility improvements at the city‑owned sports complex. Supporters of the “Better Roads, Safe Streets” transportation measure have submitted more than 32,000 signatures to qualify a half‑cent Fresno County sales tax for the November ballot, replacing the expiring Measure C. The proposal would fund road repairs, sidewalks, public transit, bike and pedestrian projects over 30 years, with backers saying it would raise about $7.3 billion for countywide transportation needs.

Morgantown Mayor Danielle Trumble on budget, taxes, sales taxes, the Safe Streets & Safe Community Service Fee, and East End VillagePresident and CEO of the Morgantown Area Partnership on the status of the East End Village redevelopment project. 

The city of Hoboken, New Jersey, has had no traffic deaths for nine years straight. This streak is no fluke. It’s the result of  focused efforts by the city’s planners and concerted leadership from elected representatives. Portland and other cities in Oregon are making some progress in their efforts to reduce these same kinds of deaths, which transportation planners like Lake McTighe say are largely preventable. McTighe is the principle transportation planner for Portland’s regional government Metro. She also manages its Safe Streets for All program, which aims to reduce deaths and serious injuries from traffic crashes. We sit down with McTighe to hear about the best practices that Hoboken and some other cities in the U.S. and other countries have used to eliminate traffic deaths — and get an update on the region’s progress toward that goal.

On Tuesday Feb 3, the state legislature held a public hearing on the transportation portion of the state budget. There was a surprising lack of testimony advocating increased funding for mass transit, though the NYS association for Public Transportation submitted written comments, mainly focused on the underfunding of mass transit update. The State provided $245.5 million in capital aid to non-MTA systems in FY 2025-26. The Executive Budget proposes a reduction to $223.5 million. With aging assets and rising costs, investment must grow to avoid worsening infrastructure conditions. The American Public Transportation Association estimates that you can save over $13,000 annually by using public transit instead of driving. Overall, Unmet transportation needs in New York State center on gaps in rural transit, limited "last-mile" service, and inadequate access for seniors and people with disabilities, particularly for medical and work-related travel. The MTA seemed relatively pleased with its funding, noting that 2025 was the biggest year ever for capital commitments -- $15.8 billion. More than $5 billion of that came from congestion pricing. Other speakers noted that state funding for the passenger rail program is currently smaller than it was during the Pataki Administration. In this segment we hear mainly about safe streets and accessibility issues for individuals with disability. First is Amy Cohen of Families for Safe Streets. Followed by Elizabeth Adams of Transportation Alternatives, Christopher Grief of the ADA Accessibility Transportation Group and Alexandra Mikowski of Access to Independence of Cortland County

Columbia, South Carolina, is the 12th deadliest metro for pedestrians in America.
