Send us a textToday is a brief bonus episode explaining Governor Dunleavy's recent veto of Senate Bill 113 which would have required internet companies to pay corporate income taxes based on the location of their sales rather than the location of their offices. This bill would have put Alaska in alignment with 36 other states and would have leveled the playing field our local mom-&-pop businesses which are forced to pay taxes while companies such as Amazon, Hulu, or Netflix are not. Senate Bill 113 would have modernized our corporate tax structure and the additional revenue was to be directed to public education. Alaska State House Representative for downtown Anchorage Representative Zack Fields explains the veto and its implications. Read more here.

Google betaalt 24,5 miljoen dollar (zo'n 20,9 miljoen euro) om een rechtszaak van de Amerikaanse president Donald Trump te schikken na zijn schorsing van videoplatform YouTube kort na de bestorming van het Capitool in 2021. Joe van Burik vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. 22 miljoen dollar van het schikkingsbedrag gaat naar de bouw van een nieuwe balzaal in het Witte Huis, een project dat Trump belangrijk noemt. Nog eens 2,5 miljoen dollar wordt verdeeld onder andere eisers, waaronder de conservatieve organisatie American Conservative Union. Daarmee is Google, eigenaar van YouTube, het laatste van de drie grote techbedrijven, naast Meta en X, dat een schikking treft met Trump over zijn verbanning aan het einde van zijn eerste ambtstermijn. Trump heeft sinds zijn terugkeer in het Witte Huis meerdere voor hem gunstige schikkingen gesloten met technologie- en mediabedrijven. In januari stemde Meta ermee in om 25 miljoen dollar te betalen om de rechtszaak rond Trumps schorsing van Facebook te schikken. Verder in deze Tech Update: Er is een veelbesproken AI-wetsvoorstel, de Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act oftewel Senate Bill 53 (SB 53) aangenomen in dé staat van de grote techbedrijven: Californië OpenAI, de maker van ChatGPT, heeft in de eerste helft van dit jaar al ruim 4 miljard omzet gedraaid, meer dan over heel 2024 See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Senate Bill 771, authored by Democrat Henry Stern, is poised to weaponize algorithmic “amplification” as a new tool of censorship—allowing California to hit major social media platforms with civil fines up to $1 million for knowingly promoting content deemed discriminatory or threatening under state law. Reckless violations carry penalties up to $500,000, and penalties double if minors are involved. Passed both houses and now waiting on Gov. Newsom's desk, this bill will take effect on January 1, 2027, if signed. In today's show I'll expose how SB 771 really isn't about safety — it's about forcing platforms to police speech to avoid penalties.

As the war in Gaza approaches its two year mark, criticism of Israel and support for the Palestinian population has ignited debates over free speech in the United States. Universities have become nexuses of protest against US support of Israel in the conflict, and the federal government's response has been to block education funding for schools and targeting activists for deportation. State governments and universities have begun taking their own actions to curtail pro-Palestine sentiments on campus.

(The Center Square) – As Washington state is forecast to run out of money by 2027 despite a historic tax increase during this year's legislative session, that fiscal crisis could be exacerbated several years later if new actuarial assumptions for the pension system don't pan out. During session, state lawmakers enacted Senate Bill 5357, which altered the assumed rate of return for pension investments from 7% to 7.25%. Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxx Read more: https://www.thecentersquare.com/washington/article_0db21f8a-6678-451d-aff3-0321864d5d83.html Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Imagine this: You're out to dinner with your staff. One of them has celiac disease. The server doesn't know what gluten is. The kitchen isn't sure either. That moment? It sparked real change in Illinois. In this episode of Eating at a Meeting LIVE, I'm talking with State Senator Sally Turner, the powerhouse behind Senate Bill 1288—a bill that could soon make Illinois one of the safest places to dine out if you live with celiac disease. It's a big deal. This new law (awaiting the governor's signature) would require ALL food handlers in the state to be trained on celiac disease, gluten-free protocols, and preventing cross-contact. Senator Turner shares how a personal connection turned into statewide action—and why this matters not just for restaurants, but for anyone planning events, catering menus, or feeding guests. Because safety shouldn't depend on luck. It should be built into the system. We'll cover: ✅ Why the bill passed unanimously ✅ What it means for hotels, venues & caterers ✅ How this legislation could shape SOPs and training far beyond Illinois ✅ Why awareness isn't enough without action Whether you're gluten-free, planning meals, or pushing for safer dining—this conversation is one you'll want to be part of.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1140: Today we're talking about Toyota's big ethanol play in Fukushima and California lawmakers slamming the brakes on “Leno's Law” for classic cars. Plus, Paul's back with some unexpected retail takeaways from his vacation travels.Show Notes with links:Toyota and a coalition of Japanese automakers are doing something symbolic and strategic — turning the former Fukushima no-go zone into a proving ground for next-gen biofuels.A Toyota-led consortium is piloting ethanol biofuel production in Okuma, the town devastated by the 2011 nuclear disaster.They're cultivating high-cellulose sorghum, which outperforms corn in poor soil and doesn't compete with food crops.This is part of Japan's “multipathway” strategy — pushing hybrids, synthetic fuels, and biofuels alongside EVs.The group, which includes Subaru, Mazda, Suzuki, Daihatsu, and Eneos, opened a $33M plant in November to convert the sorghum to E10 fuel.“We want this movement to spread beyond Japan to the world,” said Toyota CTO Hiroki Nakajima while touring the fields in a straw hat.Jay Leno's push to exempt classic car owners from smog checks in California has officially stalled. Despite passing the Senate and Leno's personal testimony, the bill was quietly killed by the Assembly Appropriations Committee.Senate Bill 712, dubbed “Leno's Law,” would have exempted pre-1981 cars with historic plates from smog checks.The Assembly's Appropriations Committee killed the bill without explanation, alongside 70 others on its “suspense file.”Leno argued classic car smog checks are outdated, expensive, and hard to perform with modern equipment.Environmental groups and air quality regulators opposed the bill, citing cost and pollution concerns.“Sadly, today California said ‘no' to helping preserve these rolling pieces of history,” said sponsor Sen.

Arkansas is set to welcome $12 billion in new data centers that will require significant electricity, while recent legislation has made it nearly impossible to develop new wind farms. The state will have to rely on importing power and building natural gas plants, leading to higher costs for ratepayers. Sign up now for Uptime Tech News, our weekly email update on all things wind technology. This episode is sponsored by Weather Guard Lightning Tech.

And subscribe to Rosemary Barnes' YouTube channel here. Have a question we can answer on the show? Email us! Allen Hall: Let me tell you a little story about wind energy in the state of Arkansas. But first, let me pick you a picture of the natural state. Arkansas sits right in the heart of America. This is the land that gave us President Bill Clinton and the retail giant Walmart. It's the home to the rugged Ozark mountains and the fertile Mississippi River Delta, where folks still wave from the front porches. And Sunday dinner means the whole family surround the table. Arkansas has always been a place where old traditions meet new opportunities. Rice fields stretch across the eastern flatlands. Timber companies harvest the dense forest. The Buffalo River runs wild and free. And now. Wind energy companies are eyeing those wide open spaces and [00:01:00] mountain ridges. But here's where our story gets interesting. The natural state is about to welcome $12 billion in new data centers. That's Google building a $10 billion facility in West Memphis, just across the river from where Elvis lived. Two more billion dollars centers go up in Little Rock and Conway near the center of the state. These data centers will demand massive amounts of electricity. How much Arkansas Electric Cooperative Corporation says they've got requests for 4,000 megawatts of new load. That's more power than the entire system has built in 80 years. And the data center companies want it in just three or four years. And here's an interesting turn of events. Arkansas just made it nearly impossible to build wind farms that could power these data centers cheaply. And cleanly. Senate Bill 4 37 passed by just one vote in the Arkansas [00:02:00] Senate 18 4 14 against, they called it the Arkansas Wind Energy Development Act, but don't let the name fool you. This 20 page regulatory monster is designed to kill wind development. The bail requires wind turbines to be set back three and a half times their height from property lines. That's up to a quarter mile it. Bans turbines within one mile of schools, hospitals, churches, and city limits. It demands extensive environmental studies and public hearings. Wind companies warned this would kill future development. Wire, Hauser the Timber Giant with 1.2 million acres in Arkansas said the rule would limit their ability to host wind projects to zero acres. Zero. Representative Jack Leman, a Republican from Jonesboro, Arkansas, summed it up on the house floor, quote, if wind is a bad idea, it will fail on its own. It's not our job to kill an [00:03:00] industry, unquote, but they killed it anyway. Six Arkansas counties have already banned wind development. Carroll County, Boone, Madison, Newton Crawford, and Criton Counties have all said no to commercial wind projects. The current projects get a pass. The Crossover Wind Project in Cross County and the Nimbus Project in Carroll County. Were already under development by April 9th of this year, so they're exempt from the new rules. Crossover wind will be Arkansas's first operational wind farm, 135 megawatts, 32 turbines enough to power 50,000 homes. It's going online next summer in the flat farmland of Eastern Arkansas. Nimbus is more controversial. 180 megawatts. Plan for the Ozark Mountains in Carroll County near the state line with Missouri...

The Texas Senate on Tuesday gave initial approval to a much-anticipated bill aiming to tamp down on the mailing of abortion pills into the state. The bill, if signed into law, would create a new pathway for enforcing Texas' strict abortion ban. It would allow regular citizens to file civil lawsuits against anyone who distributes abortion pills within Texas or anyone who mails abortion pills to Texas. In other news, Texas' business-friendly climate has helped make it the “headquarters of headquarters.” With Dallas becoming what Christopher Kleinert, chief executive officer of Hunt Realty Investments, recently called an “epicenter for financial activity,” many Fortune 500 companies are planting down roots in the region, or adding to their Texas operations; the sale of lab-grown meat has been banned in Texas for two years as part of Senate Bill 261. The law states that “a person may not manufacture, process, possess, distribute, offer for sale, or sell cell-cultured protein.” Although its production and use were not widespread in the state, some believe its ban violates people's constitutional rights, impacting what consumers can and can't purchase; and cases of COVID-19 are spiking in Texas as a new variant spreads across much of the U.S. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, COVID variant XFG, nicknamed Stratus, accounts for three-fourths of COVID cases in the U.S. Learn more about your ad choices.

The ongoing case of Etienne v. Ferguson raises profound questions about the interplay between religious liberty and state authority, particularly regarding Catholic confession, which centuries-old religious doctrine deems as absolutely confidential. The case challenges Washington's Senate Bill 5375, titled "Concering the duty of clergy to report child abuse and neglect." Does a state mandatory reporter law violate the First Amendment’s religion clauses if it encompasses information learned during the sacrament? Or can the state justify overriding the seal of confession as a necessary and justifiable measure to protect children?This webinar will examine the passage of Washington’s Senate Bill 5375, the historical and theological significance of confession, the constitutional protections afforded by the free exercise and establishment clauses, and the concerns of some that religious practices could be commandeered in service to the state’s police power. The discussion will also address whether the law unconstitutionally targets Catholic clergy and whether the state’s interest in child protection can supersede the religious obligation of priests to maintain absolute confidentiality, under penalty of excommunication.Our guests will consider the delicate relationship between religious liberty and state power in this high-stakes case.Featuring:Matthew Martens, Partner, WilmerHale LLP(Moderator) Hiram Sasser, Executive General Counsel, First Liberty Institute

An Ohio teen writes about frustrations with Senate Bill 50.

In this episode: The largest private landowner in Florida is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Better known as the Mormon Church, it owns more than 600,000 acres around the state. About half of its land holdings are cattle ranchlands east of Orlando — where the the church has long-term plans to build the equivalent of a new city of 500,000 people. But voters in Orlando recently approved new rules meant to slow suburban sprawl on rural land. So the Mormon Church turned to Florida's Republican-controlled Legislature to step in. And the church had help.Show notesThe bills discussed in this show:Senate Bill 1118 — Land Use and Development RegulationsSenate Bill 180 — EmergenciesTime is a flat circle: Lobbyists for developers pushed Florida lawmakers to block rules meant to save rural lands from sprawlThe top 10 landowners in Florida: Land LordsReach more about the Mormon Church's long-term development plans in central Florida (stories from the August 2017 issue of Florida Trend magazine):Ranchland to rooftops in central FloridaDeseret Ranch — the LandRural Florida's players and their projectsTavistock's Role in Developing Rural FloridaDuda's agribusiness development reachThis the second episode to come out of public records we obtained after the end of the Florida Legislature's 2025 session.

With a new state law that eases zoning restrictions looming, the Dallas City Council approved a controversial plan to rezone the Hampton-Clarendon corridor in West Oak Cliff after months in the process. In September, Senate Bill 840 will loosen city regulations and allow developers to build housing in commercially zoned areas without community input. In other news, the family of a woman who died during flooding in Kerr County has filed a civil lawsuit against the RV park where she was staying when catastrophic floodwaters swept through the region last month. Relatives of 22-year old Jayda Floyd filed the suit Tuesday in the 216th judicial district in Kerr County against HTR TX Hill Country Resort; Illinois law enforcement officers cannot arrest Texas House Democrats who have been staying in the northern state in protest of a congressional redistricting map, a state judge ruled Wednesday; and just two years after setting a post-pandemic record for international visitors, and a year before hosting one of the world's most popular international events, Dallas is projected to see a decline in tourists visiting from abroad. Political, economic and immigration-related concerns are affecting international tourism in Dallas, which is on pace to decline 8% this year. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the 83rd Nevada legislative session, several Indigenous-focused bills were axed by Gov. Joe Lombardo, but he signed at least two, related to healthcare. Senate Bills 97 and 312 are designed to support the infrastructure needed to build out Tribal healthcare expansions in the future.

In this episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt delves into the recent changes brought about by Senate Bill 29, which became effective on May 14, 2025. This bill includes the codification of the business judgment rule into the Texas Business Organizations Code, a significant development for business owners and directors. The business judgment rule, which has been relied upon since 1878, protects directors from liability for honest, discretionary decisions made in the corporation's interest, even if those decisions are negligent or imprudent, as long as there is no fraud, bad faith, or gross negligence involved. Previously, this rule was only applied defensively after a business was sued, but now it is explicitly written into the Texas law. The new codification presumes that directors and officers act in good faith, on an informed basis, in furtherance of the corporation's interests, and in obedience to the law and the corporation's governing documents. This presumption can only be rebutted if it is proven that the director's or officer's actions involved fraud, intentional misconduct, an ultra vires act, or a knowing violation of the law.Senate Bill 29 aims to provide statutory clarity and certainty for business decision-makers, encouraging more companies to operate in Texas and boosting economic development and job creation. Governor Abbott and Senator Bryan Hughes have both expressed their support for the bill, highlighting its potential to attract businesses and provide a stable legal environment for corporate governance. Business owners are advised to review their certification of formation, operating agreements, bylaws, and minutes with a qualified attorney to ensure compliance with the new law and to identify any necessary changes or amendments.

Illinois is taking a major step to address youth mental health with a new law, Senate Bill 1560, championed by State Senator Sara Feigenholtz. The law mandates universal mental health screenings for students in grades three through twelve once the state provides screening tools at no cost to schools. The goal is early identification of issues such as sadness, hopelessness, and academic struggles. Parents retain the choice to opt their children out. Support will be available through the BEACON portal, a centralized resource to connect families with appropriate behavioral health services. The law takes effect January 1, 2026.
