TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Assurances from labor officials that new security protocols are blocking thousands of fraudulent attempts every hour to access Kansas’ unemployment benefits system did little Wednesday to dispel the concerns of Republican lawmakers who fear the state is losing millions of dollars to COVID-19 pandemic scammers.

The state Department of Labor reported that it blocked more than 649,000 attempts from internet bots or human scammers to log into its unemployment system within 34 hours after a shutdown of the system ended Tuesday morning. The department shut down the system Saturday afternoon to add See SCAMS | Page A5

Hospitals in Allen and Anderson counties are easing visitor restrictions, allowing one person per day to visit a patient. Previously, no visitors were allowed because of COVID-19 safety precautions.

Saint Luke’s Health System, which operates both Allen County Regional Hospital and Anderson County Hospital, announced the change effective at 7 a.m. this morning.

The spread of COVID-19 has slightly declined in the region, prompting hospital officials to ease back on the restrictions. Should cases start to increase, hospitals would reinstate the “no visitors” policy.

The new restrictions allow one visitor per patient per day, no visitor re-entry and no visitors under the age of 14.

USD 257 Kansas unveils online map to ‘Find My Vaccine’ Prom is still on, for now

TOPEKA — Kansas officials on Wednesday unveiled an online map designed to help people figure out who to call and where to go to get a COVID-19 vaccine.

The map is part of a larger website that also provides information about the current phase of vaccine rollout and who is currently eligible to get the vaccine. Doses are currently reserved for people ages 65 and older, individuals in prison and other congregate settings, and critical workers.

The anticipated rollout of the “Find My Vaccine” platform arrives amid a sixweek decline in new cases of COVID-19. Still, the pandemic remains a serious threat.

It’s been nearly a year since the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the education system.

Since March, the pandemic forced educators, parents and students to adapt to quickly changing situations.

“We feel like we can pivot pretty quickly when needed,” he said.

“It’s been a challenge all year. One day can change so much from the next. But the way our students, facuity, staff, administrators and parents have handled it has been amazing. I really hand it to all of them.”

GOP push plan to criminalize health services for trans kids

By SHERMAN SMITH Kansas Reflector

vane, and Rep. Bill Rhiley, R-Wellington, cosponsored the legislation, which creates the level eight felony crime of “unlawful gender reassignment service” for individuals younger than 18.

Under their proposal, gender would be defined as “the biological state of being female or male based on the individual’s sex organs.” Physicians would be banned from prescribing puberty-blocking medication, doses of testosterone for girls or estrogen for boys, or performing a surgery that sterilizes, alters the appearance of genitalia, or removes a healthy body part.

“It’s the same little group of extremists that are pushing this stuff, year after year after year,” said Tom Witt, executive director of Equality Kansas. “They can’t beat up on the

TOPEKA — Rep. Stephanie Byers castigated four Republican representatives Wednesday for introducing legislation that would put physicians in prison for providing services to transgender children.

Byers, a Democrat from Wichita and the state’s first openly transgender legislator, said House Bill 2210 would have a tragic impact on a population that struggles with suicide.

“A young Stephanie Byers should not have to walk the walk that I did,” Byers said. “We can make a difference for these kids. And this basically holds back the clock and says, ‘Nope, we’re not doing that.’”

Rep. Brett Fairchild, R-St. John, Rep. Randy Garber, R-Sabetha, Rep. Cheryl Helmer, R-Mul-

grown-ups anymore, so now they’re going after little kids, and I for one am sick of it.”

Garber, Rhiley and Hellmer also sponsored legislation in 2019 that labeled same-sex marriage a “parody” and classified homosexuality as a religion whose worshipers are guided by a daily code.

Witt said a 2013 study showed 40% of transgender youths had attempted suicide. That number has decreased to 35% because new treatments have been introduced, he said.

“This would take that away,” he said. “If something like this were passed, I think we’re going to see dead kids.”

Byers said physicians don’t perform the surgical interventions specified in the bill on children under 18, but puberty blockers help children buy time.

“The kids still grow.

They still develop in height and stature.

They just don’t have all the secondary sex characteristics. And so then when they’re able to make that decision, they can go the way they want to go with it,” Byers said. “And honestly, you very rarely find a kid that thinks one way and kind of changes their mind later. I can’t say it doesn’t ever happen, but it’s a rare occurrence.”

The 58-year-old said she knew who she was before she was in kindergarten and would have welcomed a pill that would have prevented her from growing facial hair.

Rep. Brandon Woodard, D-Lenexa, and Rep. Susan Ruiz, D-Shawnee, joined Byers in denouncing the hate bill. Woodard and Ruiz became the first openly

gay members of the Legislature after winning election in 2018. Byers was elected in 2020.

“Any time there’s an attack on a member of the LGBTQ community, it’s literally an attack on all of us,” Woodard said.

Ruiz said it was wrong for lawmakers to

place children in their political crosshairs.

“There are so many things that we need done in this state, and what do these people do but look at ways to be able to attack children?” she said. “I’ve got all the cuss words for it. It just doesn’t make sense.”

Kansas trails nation in preparing move to electric vehicles

taken to promote and support the use of electric vehicles. That included how much charging infrastructure exists, what kind of financial incentives or tax breaks are available and whether or not a state has set any goals for better outfitting itself for cars that need to plug in.

Kansas scored poorly in almost every category.

The few highlights include the number of publicly available charging stations, although most are found in the more populated eastern part of the state.

The state also received points because Evergy, the state’s largest electric utility, offers special rates for EV owners who charge up at times when the demand for electricity is lowest.

The report suggests that Kansas and other low-scoring states could

The electrification of cars and small trucks is on the horizon, but the state of Kansas is doing the bare minimum to be prepared.

A new state scorecard from the advocacy group the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy ranks the state 29th, with a score of 15.5 out of 100.

Only five states scored at least half of the available points.

“This means that all states can improve their policies,” said Bryan Howard, the scorecard’s lead author.

He said the scorecard is intended to help identify promising policies related to EVs (electric vehicles) and EV-charging infrastructure.

start to improve scores by setting some goals.

“You know the states that have kind of established that North star,” Nick Voris, manager of electrification products at Evergy, said. “They act differently than those that don’t.”

As a company that would make more money from the electrification of transportation, Evergy backs several of the policies recommended in the report.

State legislators are currently considering one of those recommendations — a bill that would allow businesses to charge customers for using EV charging stations the same way gas stations sell fuel.

Right now that would be considered selling electricity, and any company that sells it would be regulated like a public utility.

“This is a critical step in setting up a robust and competitive marketplace for electric vehicle charging services,” said Justin Wilson, of electric vehicle charging company ChargePoint.

Mark Augustine is the president of several 24/7 Travel Stores in Kansas.

He told a Kansas House committee considering the bill that he’d like to be able to charge people’s cars up just like he sells them gasoline. He already has some federal funding lined up to help him purchase the equipment.

“But I need the regulatory side of this energy to catch up to offer this service,” he said.

The state is also working on using $2.3 million from the federal settlement of the Volkswagen emissions cheating scandal to help expand EV charging infrastructure into more rural parts of

Moves like General Motors pledging to make all cars and SUVs electric by 2035 and President Biden calling for the complete electrification of federal fleet vehicles indicate that the push for better state support for electric vehicles will only

increase over the next decade.

But the report says Kansas just isn’t quite ready … yet.

“I’m not sure we’re at the point yet where the state is pushing that, ‘Yes, we need to do this,’” said Tami Alexander, program coordinator for Central Kansas Clean Cities Coalition. “But we’re getting there.”

Stuck in DC, Biden team pitches rest of US on big virus aid

By JOSH BOAK The Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — Even as President Joe Biden gathers with senators and works the phones with Capitol Hill to push for a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package, his team is increasingly focused on selling the plan directly to voters.

His administration has done 60-plus interviews with national TV and radio shows. There have been spots on local TV news and briefings last week with more than 50 groups including General Motors, Meals on Wheels America and Planned Parenthood. One of the main goals is to stop people from getting bogged down in the tangle of partisan deal-making and convince them that every penny of the “go big” package is needed.

“The public is not getting caught up in process — what they want is results,” said Cedric Richmond, the White House director of public engagement.

“People these days are not worried about the inside-the-beltway terminology. They’re looking at who’s doing what to help.”

The president told House Democrats on Wednesday that he

views the package’s proposal for $1,400 in direct payments to individuals as a foundational promise to voters. It represents a strategic bet by the White House that voters will suspend their partisan beliefs to evaluate the plan and support its massive scope.

Biden has suggested he may be flexible on the $1.9 trillion topline figure for the plan and on ways to more narrowly target who gets direct payments. But the $1,400 amount — on top of $600 in payments approved in December — appears to be non-negotiable.

“I’m not going to start my administration by breaking a promise to the American people,” he said.

The extensive package comes after $4 trillion in rescue spending that cushioned the financial blow from the pandemic but did little to stop the disease. It includes politically divisive provisions such as a $15 hourly minimum wage and $350 billion in aid for state and local governments. Ten Republican senators countered with a $618 billion package, a third of what Biden is offering.

Most Americans still see the need for government stimulus. A survey released Wednesday by Quinnipiac University

found 68% of U.S. adults support Biden’s stimulus package and 24% oppose it. But Republicans are divided on the measure, with 47% opposed and 37% favoring it. Nearly all Democrats backed the plan.

Based on his interactions, Richmond sees three elements of the package as the most popular: the direct payments, the $160 billion for widespread vaccinations — one of the only expenditures that also appears in the Republican proposal, food and nutrition assistance for struggling Americans, and the push to halve the child poverty rate through tax credits and other benefits.

But even Republicans who are supportive of some kind of aid are telling their voters Biden’s plan is too expensive — and it’s possible people

could be turned off if they think stimulus dollars are being wasted.

Republican Sen. Mitt Romney of Utah told KUTV in Salt Lake City that aid to state and local governments, a particular sticking point for Republicans, should be based on “actual need, as opposed to a simple blanket payment of billions of dollars, which in many cases would represent a windfall.”

Republicans are betting Biden will pay a price politically if he doesn’t take a bipartisan tack. By contrast, Democrats hope Republicans will pay a price if voters don’t see them engaging with the fullness of the crisis.

The White House can point to at least one Republican who considers Biden’s plan essential: Jeff Williams, the mayor of Arlington, Texas. Wil-

liams knows there could be a partisan backlash to supporting Biden’s plan. But, on the merits, the term-limited mayor sees no alternative.

The city is gearing up for property tax assessments, and estimates are that revenues could drop 10%, largely because commercial real estate has taken a severe hit as offices, restaurants and hotels have emptied. Williams said he believes Republicans ultimately want to help, too, even if they choke on the high price tag.

“It’s the right thing to do,” he said. “The gist of this is that you always have those extremists that are there, but most of our Republicans have been supportive of getting fiscal assistance to cities. They can’t come up with that dollar amount.”

The United States has lost roughly 10 million jobs because of the pandemic, and the Congressional Budget Office estimates that without additional aid, the jobs won’t return in full until 2024. The Census Bureau estimates 1 in 8 households with children lacks sufficient food.

But the picture is also complicated. The Penn Wharton Budget Model found in a report released Wednesday that

73% of the $1,400 stimulus checks would go into savings, meaning there would be limited growth in consumer spending, which helps propel the economy.

The report estimates that Biden’s plan would spend the equivalent of roughly 8.6% of gross domestic product but only increase growth by 0.6%, since much of the economy -- other than the restaurant, travel and leisure and hospitality sectors -- shows signs of healing.

“When you shovel a lot of money into an economy that is doing pretty darn well, you might do harm,” said Efraim Berkovich, director of computational dynamics for the Penn Wharton Budget Model.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said the Penn Wharton analysis was flawed because it assumes that the U.S. economy is running near full-capacity, “which would be news to the millions of Americans who are out of work or facing reduced hours and reduced paychecks.”

The message from Republicans is that $1.9 trillion is a lot of money that could be better spent on other priorities such as an infrastructure program. Or, not spent at all.

School: Students, faculty adapt

Chucky doll featured in errant Amber Alert

Continued from A1

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Rest assured, “Chucky” is not on the loose.

The Texas Department of Public Safety has apologized after mistakenly issuing an Amber Alert that said the killer doll featured in the 1988 horror film “Child’s Play” was a suspect in the kidnapping of his 5-year-old son, Glen Ray, who was featured in “Seed

can’t do it, we’ll look at options,” he said. “We want to have something for our high school students. This is the school’s responsibility, so we’re planning and hoping for the best.”

The district was not able to organize prom last year. That means last year’s juniors, who would have organized the 2020 prom, are now seniors. Fager said it’s especially important to find a way to give them some sort of prom, so they don’t miss out entirely.

IN GENERAL, the district has managed to fend off the worst of the pandemic’s effects on education.

Students and faculty at times were asked to quarantine because of an active case or exposure to someone with COVID-19.

The district faced its highest concentration of quarantined students and staff between the Thanksgiving and winter breaks, Fager said.

Since then, quarantines have stabilized.

He’s most encouraged by evidence that the district’s safety protocols and cleaning measures seem to be working.

The district has not seen any outbreaks or clusters that began in school buildings. When students or staff were infected, it typically was traced to activities that occurred outside school.

“At first, we weren’t sure if our cleaning procedures would be enough but we found that the work our custodial staff and teachers were doing in keeping high-touch areas sanitized has really helped,” Fager said. “We’ll continue with that and we’ll continue to be diligent on mask-wearing because we see the ben-

efits.”

THE NUMBER of remote learning students has been reduced this semester, as the district changed its policy to require struggling online students back into the building.

Also, some students and parents saw the benefits of returning to in-person learning.

Fager also credits that, in large part, to the district’s efforts to limit the spread of infection through safety protocols and social distancing measures.

“A lot of our parents, understandably, were hesitant at the start of the school year. We didn’t know in July what would happen when we brought everyone back together,” he said.

“But they’ve witnessed what the school has been doing, and I compliment our parents, students and faculty for their efforts.”

Because some remote students struggled in an online setting, they may have needed tutoring to catch up to their peers. That extra help is available before and after school, and through the SAFE BASE after school program.

For the most part, though, Fager has seen a benefit to having students return to the classroom. Education isn’t just about academics. It’s a social process, as well, he said.

“I’ve been in the buildings and I’ve seen students who came back. I’ve seen them interacting with their peers, laughing and having a great time,” he said. “They want to be with their peers. They want to develop friendships and learning opportunities. It’s great to see them back and enjoying the education experience.”

Across the state,

though, some families have left the public school system because of the pandemic. Some migrated to remote learning platforms. Others started home schooling.

“The concern is getting those students back and getting back up to their grade level with their peers, if there are gaps in their learning,” Fager said.

THOUGH MUCH attention has been paid to sports, other extracurricular activities have continued in different formats.

Organizations like FFA have continued to participate in events but in smaller groups.

Other activities that were common, such as district-wide events or programs, have been canceled entirely. Some winter music concerts were offered in a virtual program. Some continued, but with limits on attendance.

“We’re cognizant of community spread and we want to keep events in our building as much as possible,” Fager said.

MEANWHILE, supplemental staff like custodians, bus drivers, food service and substitutes have faced their own challenges.

Like students and teachers, they’ve also faced required quarantine periods. At times, that thinned their ranks considerably. Staff have been flexible, filling in as needed when others were gone.

“We’ve been very thin on substitutes and bus drivers, but the ones we have, have stepped up and they’ve worked extremely hard. I really appreciate them,” Fager said.

“In general, we’re getting by. We just need to keep doing what we’ve been doing, because it’s working.”

of Chucky.”

The emergency alert described Chucky as a 3-foot, 1-inch-tall doll wearing “blue denim overalls with multi-colored striped long sleeve shirt wielding a huge kitchen knife.”

The alert was mistakenly sent out three

times last week to Amber Alert subscribers.

The agency said it was a test malfunction.

~ Journalism that makes a difference

‘Moving on’ requires accepting responsibility A man who had been photographed with his foot on a desk in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-Calif.) office during the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol appeared last week before Chief U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell. Charged with entering the Capitol violently with a dangerous weapon and stealing government property, the man sought to be released pending trial. He called himself a “good man” and claimed that “people love me.” The judge would have none of it and ordered that the man remain jailed for showing “a total disregard for the law.”

Judge Howell’s fury was palpable — and understandable. “We’re still living here in D.C. with the consequences of the violence in which this defendant is alleged to have participated,” she said.

What is not understandable is the seeming willingness of Republicans to minimize the events and argue that it is time to move on. “Not great” is all that former Trump ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley could muster in describing what happened Jan. 6 as she criticized Democrats for wanting to hold former president Donald Trump accountable for inciting the mob assault.

Each day since Jan. 6, more information has become available about the events that Wednesday, and it becomes all the more horrifying. Feces spread on walls; calls to hunt down and shoot Ms. Pelosi and hang then-Vice President Mike Pence; police blinded with bear spray and attacked with metal poles, fire extinguishers, crutches and wooden boards. At least 81 Capitol Police officers and about 65 D.C. police officers suffered injuries that included cracked ribs, head injuries

and smashed spinal discs.

One officer is likely to lose an eye. A graphic video obtained by the New York Times showed rioters trampling a woman as they attacked police. The 34-year-old woman died, as did three other rioters and Capitol Police Officer Brian D. Sicknick. Two police officers died by suicide days after the attack.

Federal officials have estimated that roughly 800 people stormed into the Capitol, and so far, more than 135 individuals have been charged. Prosecutors, The Post’s Devlin Barrett and Spencer S. Hsu reported, are privately debating whether they should decline to charge those who are known only to have committed unlawful entry and were not engaged in violent or destructive behavior. Maybe, but there must be thorough investigation and forceful prosecution that send the message that such vile political violence will not be tolerated.

The FBI investigation, the most extensive since the probe of the 9/11 attack, has found evidence detailing coordination of an assault by members of extremist groups, but how extensive is still unknown. Also to be determined is whether any member of Congress helped to directly facilitate the assault, other than by fomenting it with false and irresponsible statements about election fraud.

Judge Howell had it right when she described the charges against the man who desecrated Ms. Pelosi’s office as, “in some ways too benign-sounding to fairly describe what happened.” Reading from a vulgar letter the man had left on the desk, she said “Wow. Brazen, entitled, dangerous.”

Harriet Tubman will be on the $20 bill — finally It looks as though a likeness of famed abolitionist Harriet Tubman finally will appear on American currency, resurrecting a plan that has been stalled for nearly five years.

It’s the right move by the Biden administration, one that allows the diversity of the nation to be reflected in an everyday commodity such as paper money. Tubman would be the first Black person to be featured on U.S. currency, and one of only a handful of women whose likeness appeared on U.S. currency or coins.

Tubman’s portrait will be placed on the $20 bill, a plan first announced in 2016 during the Obama administration. The goal was to have the new bill unveiled in 2020 as part of the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote.

The Tubman $20 bill design came to a halt, however, under President Donald Trump.

He opposed the idea while campaigning in 2016, calling it a move of “pure political correctness” and alluding to his fondness for Andrew Jackson, who is now on the $20 bill.

Former Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said last year that the new bills could not be put into circulation until 2028 at the earliest, citing non-specific technical issues.

He didn’t say why the rollout would take nearly eight years compared with the Obama plan of about four years, but did say the decision would rest with the next treasury secretary.

PRESIDENT JOE Biden wasted little time in making it clear that the Tubman $20 bill would move forward, and that his Treasury Department would be studying ways to speed up the process, although no timetable was announced.

Born around 1820, Tubman escaped slavery and became a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad, where she helped other slaves escape captivity prior to the Civil War. When her $20 bill is placed in circulation, she would join Martha Washington and Pocahontas as the only women to appear on bills; images of Susan B. Anthony, Sacagawea and Helen Keller appeared on coins.

Having a Black woman’s image on U.S. currency is a long overdue acknowledgment of the diversity of the nation and the role of Blacks and women in shaping our history. The Treasury Department is taking the right approach in fast-tracking the design and release of a new $20 bill that honors the work and life of Harriet Tubman.

Nobody would watch the National Flag Football League. We love the National Football League, even knowing the game can bring disastrous lifelong consequences. Danger is part of the allure.

These improvements are incremental, certainly, around things such as safer helmets and more rigorous return-to-play protocols after concussions. And they do not tackle the subconcussive hits that occur on every single football play — lesser hits to the head that pile up over time and may contribute to the degenerative brain disease chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

This weekend, when you watch Mahomes face off against Brady — who has spoken about his own fears of concussions — pay special attention to any hits to the head. Many of them will be deemed necessary roughness, an unavoidable part of playing a contact sport. But any bigger, scarier hits to the head that a generation ago might have been featured on NFL-sponsored highlight videos (“King-Sized Hits,” “Thunder & Destruction”) will almost certainly be penalized or lead to immediate ejection. Fans of the penalized team will groan.

Old-timers will complain the sport isn’t what it used to be.

But moments like that will be tangible moments of progress for the long-term survival of America’s favorite sport. Football is not safe. It never will be. But it is safer.

House GOP keeps Cheney as No. 3 leader; stands by Greene WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans decided Wednesday to stand by two GOP lawmakers who have polarized the party, voting to retain Rep. Liz Cheney as their No. 3 leader and saying they’d fight a Democratic push to kick Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene off her committees.

In a 145-61 secret-ballot vote, House Republicans overwhelmingly rebuffed a rebellion by hard-right conservatives to toss Cheney, R-Wyo., from leadership after she voted last month to impeach then-President Donald Trump.

Hours earlier, after Democrats slated a House vote for Thursday that would remove Greene from her committees, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy ridiculed them for it.

His comments signaled he was dismissing bipartisan demands that the hard-right Georgia Republican be punished for her online embrace of racist and violent views and bizarre conspiracy theories.

The decisions over Greene and Cheney have subjected the GOP to a politically agonizing test of its direction as it moves beyond the Trump presidency.

Since Trump grudgingly vacated the White

House last month, the party has been ideologically adrift as it’s struggled over whether to embrace his norm-busting divisiveness or the party’s more traditional, policy-oriented conservative values.

But as Wednesday’s internal showdowns concluded, McCarthy and the House GOP decided against punishing two of their most high-profile women, whose views enrage opposite ends of the party’s spectrum. The moves were typical of McCarthy’s preference to avoid ruffling feathers as he charts his path to someday becoming House speaker.

“You know what that’s going to mean?” he told reporters after the lengthy evening meeting. “Two years from now, we’re going to win the majority. That’s because this conference is more united. We’ve got the right leadership team behind it.”

But each of the GOP’s wings remains concerned that the other is leading them down the wrong path, and to some, the day’s outcome seemed more an uneasy truce than a full-on peace treaty.

“This is about the direction of our party and whether or not we’re going to be a majority who’s dedicated to just

one person or we’re going to be a united Republican majority,” said Rep. Jaime Herrera-Beutler, R-Wash., who with Cheney was among just 10 House Republicans to back impeaching Trump.

Cheney is a daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney and a fixture of the party establishment, and she is viewed as eager to rise even higher in Washington’s GOP hierarchy.

Deposing her from the leadership would likely have dealt a devastating blow to her career. It also would have served as a warning shot to traditional conservative Republicans hoping to diminish Trump’s hold over the party.

“I won’t apologize for the vote,” Cheney told her colleagues in the closed-door session, according to a person familiar with the session who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the private meeting.

During a break in the session, McCarthy told reporters he’d defended Cheney inside.

“People can have differences of opinion.

That’s what you can have a discussion about.

Liz has a right to vote her conscience,” said McCarthy, who’d previously given no clear signal about whether he’d support his lieutenant.

“but while we can be reassured by these numbers, we cannot allow them to lull us into a false sense of security. So hang in there and continue wearing masks, continue getting tested, continue avoiding large gatherings, and continue to physical distance.”

Kelly said the state has now administered doses of Pfizer or Moderna vaccine to 198,000 Kansans, about 7% of the state population. She also said the state next week will receive an additional 80,000 doses of vaccines, including some booster shots for people who already received their fist dose.

sign up for it. The project remains a work in progress.

Some of the vaccination sites declined to be listed on the map, and others erroneously indicate they haven’t received vaccines. Larger metro area sites indicate they won’t schedule anyone.

“Because of the national vaccine shortage, many of our enrolled

providers do not yet have vaccines to offer to the general public,” Kelly said. “But we wanted to go ahead and get ahead of the curve, have this platform ready to go and the public get familiar with it for when the supply does meet our demand.”

KDHE indicated about 50 legislators have taken advantage of an offering of the vaccine this week.

Scams: Lawmakers frustrated Continued from A1

new security protocols after a flood of fraudulent claims for benefits.

Republicans in the GOP-controlled Legislature have criticized Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly and her administration for months over problems at the Department of Labor in providing benefits to workers who’ve lost their jobs in the pandemic. She and department officials have blamed the struggles on a decades-old computer system.

“I’m not going to deny that it has been a tough road and that many Kansans are frustrated by the inadequacy of the system that is 40, 45 years old,” Kelly said during a Statehouse news conference on COVID-19.

GOP lawmakers have become increasingly focused on fraudulent claims and have said they’re worried that employers, who cover at least part of the benefits for their ex-workers, will be on the hook for bogus claims if the fraud is not detected.

The department also is mailing forms to individuals telling them they owe income taxes on past unemployment benefits — creating a headache for people who learn that bogus claims have been filed in their names.

The department said before the unemployment system’s reboot that it was catching about 2,300 fraudulent claims a day — or roughly 96 an hour. But its latest data means it stopped almost 19,400 fraudulent log-in attempts an hour since the reboot — or a little more than five every second.

“How many actually got through is my concern,” said House commerce committee Chair Sean Tarwater, a Stilwell Republican.

GOP lawmakers have been at odds with Kelly almost since COVID-19 reached the state in early March 2020 over her closing non-essential businesses and trying to mandate mask wearing, and Republicans have signaled that it will make what they view as her mistakes a key issue when she seeks a second term in 2022. But in re-

cent weeks, as the number of new COVID-19 cases has declined, GOP criticism has focused on the Department of Labor and issues with the rollout of vaccines.

KANSAS averaged 914 new confirmed and probable COVID-19 cases a day for the seven days ending Wednesday, the first time the rolling seven-day average was below 1,000 since Oct. 28, according to state health department data. The state added 2,247 cases to its pandemic tally since Monday, bringing it to 278,915, close to one for every 10 of its 2.9 million residents.

The health department added 86 deaths to the state’s pandemic total since Monday, making it 3,895. Kansas averaged 25 additional COVID-19 deaths a day for the seven days ending Wednesday.

But the health department said Wednesday evening that it had confirmed a case in Ellis County in northwest Kansas of a more contagious coronavirus variant first identified in Great Britain. Public health officials worry that it could lead to an increase in new hospitalizations and deaths.

Kelly issued a statewide stay-at-home order in late March to contain the spread of COVID-19, and unemployment claims surged. They dropped before surging again starting in late November, fueling concerns that many of the claims were bogus.

Julie Menghini, the Department of Labor’s director of government affairs, told legislators

in an email Tuesday evening that it has this year mailed out its largest number of forms notifying people they owed income taxes on unemployment benefits.

She said the department made “every effort” to ensure that the forms didn’t go to people who had bogus claims filed in their names.

“However, despite our best efforts and in light of the historic level of forms issued as well as the high level of fraudulent activity, we expect a small universe of victims to receive these forms in error for compensation they never received,” Menghini wrote.

But GOP lawmakers said they’re getting complaints from people getting the forms who also can’t get through to the department’s special fraud call center.

University of Kansas journalism professor Teri Finneman received a notice saying that she owed taxes on $1,500 in unemployment benefits that she never received.

She’s tried repeatedly to get through to the Department of Labor by phone and in frustration wrote a letter last week.

Finneman, who has covered state government in other states as a former political reporter, said she has never seen anything like it from a state agency. She said the fact that Kansas let an agency operate with a decades-old computer system is “completely inexcusable.”

“It is extremely frustrating how many Kansans have been impacted by this,” she said in an email to The AP.

Those present seemed to glean a lot from Lammers’s presentation, and were appreciative of her traveling so far to help the Rotary Club and others fulfill their sustainability-based dreams.

people to make recycling happen,” she said, and took as evidence the community’s desire for positive action.

“We are,” chimed in Rotarian Karen Gilpin, “every single weekend, we’re out here.”

Rotary has kept at recycling for eight years.

LAMMERS began her presentation by discussing types of recycled materials, methods for bailing and other items useful to the project.

One noteworthy question from the audience was: What should we do with plastic grocery bags? Is taking them to Walmart OK? “I highly recommend you continue to do that,” Lammers said, since large companies can more efficiently process those products, and often at no charge (due to incentives).

She also pointed out that cardboard is typically made of many different materials, rather than being homogenous, and that cardboard stored in the refrigerator is designed to absorb moisture and

For those who recycle cardboard at home, Lammers emphasized how important it is not to recycle the kind coated in wax (often used for storing meat), because it can damage certain equipment.

She added that it’s alright if your cardboard is a little messy, say, having absorbed a tiny grease spot, but it should still be 95% clean.

In regards to plastics, Lammers said she recommends trying to crush them as much as possible before dropping them off.

“When they’re really crushed, they fall apart more easily,” she said.

When it comes to recycling, “the denser, the better.”

TO GIVE A sense of the scope of Quincy Recycle’s size and the amount of products they process, Lammers said that her mill moves 50 trucks of materials per day.

They also make many different new materials by combining old ones, via formulas that they call “recipes.”

At any given time, there are at least six people “playing defense,” she said, watching the conveyor belts to ensure nothing damaging passes through.

During her presentation, Lammers shared some interesting but non-traditional recycling trivia: Did you know most clothes with plastics in them are made from re-

cycled bottles?

• Clothes in many stores have recycled non-removable “tracers” placed inside the sleeves to help with security.

• One of the main things cardboard is recycled into is tissue paper.

• Newspaper is often recycled to make insulation and egg cartons.

• Magazines are recycled into bedding and kitty litter.

• Office paper can be made into toilet paper.

• Books often become brown paper towels.

• Styrofoam is turned into cheap plastic picture frames.

• And, not surprisingly, a lot of groups connected with recycling have “Green” in their names.

ACC teams split at Northwest GOODLAND — Allen Community College’s men came away with a victory Wednesday, but it was anything but easy.

In what head coach Andy Shaw described as “ugly,” the Red Devils overcame a hot shooting night by Northwest Tech to prevail, 89-84.

The teams traded the lead several times down the stretch before Allen’s Freddie Word drilled a 3-pointer

with ACC up by one with under a minute left.

Word’s 28 points led the way, while Amabdour Traore scored 14.

Logan Brown, whose name is firmly etched in the Iola High School history books, is taking his football talents to the next level.

The 6-1, 240-pound IHS senior signed a letter of intent Wednesday to play in the fall at Butler Community College in El Dorado.

“It’s like a family there,” Brown said. “It seemed like they really cared about me, and put in a lot of effort to see me.”

Brown was a two-time all-

state performer for the Mustangs on the defensive line.

He averaged nearly five tackles a game as a senior, including seven tackles for loss, in five games. He also blocked a punt.

As a junior, Brown averaged more than six tackles per game, had 10 tackles for loss, including 1½ sacks, forced a fumble and recovered a fumble.

But the statistics belie a world of athletic talent, Iola head coach Dana Daugharthy said.

“He’s one of, if not the most, pound-for-pound tal-

ented players I’ve ever seen play high school football,” Daugharthy said. “He’s an extremely explosive kid. He made a lot of big plays for us.

He will be missed.”

Daugharthy recalled one play against Osawatomie, in which Brown single-handedly chased down a speedy back.

“Plays like that are why colleges are wanting him, and why Butler’s lucky to have him,” Daugharthy said. “I’m really proud of Logan. I’m really excited to see what he’s going to do at the college levSee BROWN | Page B6

Baseball season starts, but home games will have to wait

By RICHARD LUKEN The Iola Register

Allen Community College’s baseball could easily adopt a new team nickname this season: The Road Warriors.

The Red Devils, whose 2021 season was set to start today with a series at Ottawa University, will likely not play a home game in the friendly confines of Dr. Valis McLean Field on the ACC campus until March at the earliest.

That’s because crews are still installing artificial turf to the infield, noted head coach Clint Stoy.

“We’re looking at about three weeks,” Stoy said, with the obvious weather wildcard likely to affect the scheduling.

For the time being, Allen will play its “home” games at Humboldt’s sports complex and “bouncing back and forth” for practices between Humboldt and using ACC’s indoor facilities when possible.

The investment will be well worth it, Stoy predicts. Allen’s new field will allow it to host tournaments and showcase events, thus improving its recruiting abilities.

But in the short term, being unable to hit the field much in the preseason also adds a layer of mystery surrounding the 2021 Red Devils.

“We’ve got a lot of depth, but we don’t really know necessarily what we have.

Allen Community College’s Dr. Valis McLean Field is getting a new artificial turf infield. The playing surface will not be ready in time for the first few weeks of the 2021 baseball season. REGISTER/RICHARD LUKEN We know the personnel we have, we just don’t know how they’re gonna fit in the lineup That’s what we’re using our non-conference games for.”

Depth, indeed, is the word of the day for Stoy’s Red Devils.

To wit, he counts between 12 and 15 pitchers on the roster “who can throw strikes and give us a chance to win.”

But Allen doesn’t have the traditional pitching staff,

with established starters, long-relievers or late-innings hurlers, either.

“We’ve got a lot of guys who can start. How far they go is how far they go,” Stoy said. “We’ve got guys who can eat up innings in the middle of the game, and we’ve got guys to bring in the back half to hopefully close the door.”

Among the names to watch are Jacob Davenport and Conner Clark, both of whom are

in their third year at Allen, Paxton Bryan, a sophomore lefty, Olathe native Alex Dilley, and Alex Belch, a sophomore transfer from Kansas State University.

THE SAME holds true on offense, with Stoy touting his team’s depth.

There’s so much depth, in fact, he’ll likely roll out two separate lineups early in the season to determine who fits

where.

Lukas Rich returns as a catcher, as do Kurt Golubski and Jonah Weisner in the infield, and Lucas McCain in the outfield. “Those are guys who’ve had experience in the past, and we’re expecting big things again from them this year.”

What do you think the effect of the coronavirus pandemic has been on “Call Your Mother”?

The best thing for us is that we didn’t do a pilot, we just went straight to series. We originally had planned to do a pilot last March, then everything shut down; when we came back, they picked us up for 13 episodes right away, and I don’t think that would have happened if COVID-19 hadn’t. We would have done the pilot, then they would have made all sorts of decisions that would have taken a long time.

Since you’re also a director now, having even done that on your husband Kevin Bacon’s show “City on a Hill,” do you anticipate doing that job on “Call Your Mother’ at some point?

Pam Fryman – who’s directing the show – is so great, she would be a tough act to follow. She’s done “How I Met Your Mother” and “Frasier” and “Mom” and everything, and everybody says she’s unequivocally the best. But after a couple of years of looking at a monitor that has four cameras on it, maybe that will shift a little bit and I’ll be ready to direct this.

The Iola Register

She’s in her toddler’s shadow Hi, Carolyn: I had been warned that when I had a baby, I would cease to be “Nicki” to people and would simply become “[Kid]’s Mom.” I knew it was coming, yet I was not prepared when it did!

My son is 18 months old and is the only grandkid on both sides.

I have tried to remain the multifaceted person I was before motherhood, but as far as our families are concerned, I am either the nice lady who takes care of their beloved grandson (on good days) or the evil gatekeeper who keeps them from spoiling him rotten (on bad days).

Recently I wanted to catch up with relatives and had cool career news to share, but I could not get anyone to have a conversation with ME that didn’t revolve around kid-related topics.

I do understand this will die down eventually, but I might go nuts before then. Is there any hope I can successfully insist they let me be Nicki again?

— Reclaiming My Identity Reclaiming My Identity: Did you insist unsuccessfully? Did you ask explicitly for what you wanted? “Motherhood is great. I’d just love to be Nicki for a bit instead of Mom.” This won’t help you with clueless people or those looking to justify their dislike for you — I can just hear them grumbling to anyone who will listen that “Nicki made everything all about her!”

But anyone else will, I hope, appreciate the clear guidance. I expect a lot of people catching up with a newish parent feel obligated to ask you about your child and how parenthood is going.

So, frame this in your mind as letting them

Tell Me About It Carolyn Hax

all off the hook as you kindly redirect conversations to whatever else you’d rather discuss.

Hi, Carolyn: What phrases do you have for a 40-something woman who wants her in-laws to respect her body autonomy? I am not close to my husband’s extended family by any means, with the exception of my mother- and father-in-law. But his whole family is touchyfeely and certain people get offended if I don’t hug them, making comments like, “Oh, you don’t want to hug me, huh?” and pouting about it.

No, I don’t want to hug my husband’s uncles; they make me uncomfortable. I resent how they make it seem like I’m the problem when I say, “No hugs,” or “Hi, let’s not hug.”

— Let’s Not Let’s Not: You already have the words and shared them here.

“No hugs.” “Hi, let’s not hug.”

Their offense is not your problem, especially now, when aggressive touchy-feelies are a health hazard. On top of the usual rude. So the problem isn’t that his family is offended and pouting, it’s that you’re letting their offended pouting get to you.

Right? You have every right to say no. I think it’s great you do — not everyone has the presence of mind (or presence of spine) in the moment to be so assertive in the face of potentially awkward consequences.

So please just finish the badassery job and

let them pout all they want. Channel Amy Poehler, as quoted in Tina Fey’s “Bossypants.” When Jimmy Fallon reacted badly to a Poehler joke, she “wheeled around on him. ‘I don’t [bleeping] care if you like it.’”

Hi, Carolyn: I’m in my mid-30s and moved back home with my parents after a health scare a few years ago.

Thankfully, everything is all right now with me and I’m thriving. In our culture, multigenerational households are common and it’s been working out pretty well for us.

But there are times when my parents still think of me as a small child and treat me in a protective manner rather than as an adult. How do you even start changing this dynamic, and relationship, in a healthy manner?

— Adult Adult: Certainly the adult thing to do is to let your parents know you appreciate their obvious love and concern, and understand their habits are deeply ingrained, but you also would prefer they treat you as an adult.

After that, you can keep it simple. “Mom.” Or Dad. “I’m 35.”

With a smile, real or stagy, it’s gentle and loving and all you need to say in response to any follow-up episode of overprotection.

With repetition, it’s a form of retraining you can to shorten to “Mom.” Or Dad. [Pause, eye contact, eyebrows up.]

With a chaser of disengagement — “Thanks,” or, “I’ll keep that in mind,” or, “Trust your handiwork, Mom” or Dad — it’s a peaceful, sustainable form of resistance. Good luck.

Embiid shines as 76ers beat Hornets for fourth straight win CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Joel Embiid had 34 points and 11 rebounds, and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Charlotte Hornets 118111 on Wednesday night for their fourth straight win.

Tobias Harris scored 26 points and Ben Simmons added 15 points and nine assists for the 76ers, who stretched their winning streak against the Hornets to 14 games, tied for the longest active streak

in the NBA. The Clippers have also won 14 straight against the Magic.

CLIPPERS 121, CAVALIERS 99

CLEVELAND (AP) — Paul George made a season-high eight 3-pointers and scored 36 points, Kawhi Leonard added 24 and Los Angeles found enough energy on tired legs to end a six-game road trip with a victory over Cleveland.

Just 24 hours after dropping a tight game

in Brooklyn that had an NBA Finals vibe, the Clippers made 20 3-pointers to avoid losing two straight for the first time this season.

BUCKS 130, PACERS 110

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Giannis Antetokounmpo had 21 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists despite sitting out the fourth quarter, and Milwaukee routed Indiana.

The reigning twotime MVP shot 7 of 8 from the floor and 7 of

Doncic with 32 seconds remaining that helped Dallas hold off a furious Atlanta comeback.

8 from the line in a remarkably efficient performance.

MAVERICKS 122, HAWKS 116

KINGS 116, CELTICS 111

ATLANTA (AP) — Luka Doncic scored 27 points and dished out 14 assists as Dallas snapped a six-game losing streak, defeating Trae Young and Atlanta.

Kristaps Porzingis added 24 points and 11 rebounds for the Mavericks, including a crucial tip-in of a miss by

SACREMENTO, Calif. (AP) — De’Aaron Fox had 26 points and 11 assists, Buddy Hield made two free throws with six-tenths of a second remaining and Sacramento held off short-handed Boston.

24 points and Tyrese Haliburton added 21.

WIZARDS 103, HEAT 100

MIAMI (AP) — Bradley Beal scored 32 points and Washington rallied from a 13-point, second-half deficit to beat freefalling Miami.

Deni Avdija added 13 for Washington, which pulled off this comeback just three nights after digging its way out of an 18-point hole to beat the Brooklyn Nets.

tribute in the outfield.

“We’re going to play good defense,” Stoy said. “As far as offense, we have guys who can run, guys who can hit for power, guys who can do a little bit of both.

It’s a matter of trying to figure out what we have here.”

THE RED Devil squad was among the teams hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic in the fall. Stoy recounted one time when half his squad was under quarantine orders, only to have the entire squad under similar orders a few weeks later.

“We didn’t have anybody get abnormally sick,” he said. “It’s a matter if you live in an apartment with four guys, and one of your roommates tests positive, then you’re out for two weeks.”

The Red Devils were barely getting started

in their 2020 season last spring, when the entire athletic world shut down because of the coronavirus.

Because of that, NJCAA administrators ruled those athletes on the roster last season would be invited to return this season without losing a year of eligibility.

“Some of our guys chose to come back, and some chose to go to fouryear schools,” Stoy said.

“Plus, we have a lot of new guys.”

If there was an advantage for Allen last year, it was that Stoy raked in a number of early signees, thus completing most of the school’s recruiting before the pandemic hit.

But it led to ancillary problems in that roster space soon became limited, to the point Stoy had to pass on some recruits.

“We’ve handled it very well,” he said.

“Our guys are resilient, and they’re good people and good citizens. They understand and are respectful of the virus and respectful of the people of Iola.

“The pandemic has been a test for our guys, but so far we’ve come out on the other side very positive and really just ready to go.”

The players are as excited to “play ball” as Stoy is, regardless of how long the team has to wait before it can play its first home game this season.

“They’re 18 to 21 years old,” Stoy noted.

“They want to play. Give them a bat, a ball and a glove, and they’ll go anywhere, anytime and play anybody. That’s how we’ve developed our culture. We’re gonna go play hard and let the chips fall where they may.”

Due to the inclement weather, today’s games were canceled.

the win.

The game was just as intense in the first half.

Allen shot a scorching 62% from the floor prior to intermission, but still trailed by three because Northwest was just as hot from the field, Shaw said.

ALLEN’S women fought valiantly, but came out on the short end of a 67-54 defeat.

Two Red Devil sharpshooters, Hallie Reed and Madisyn Holloway, gave ACC an early lift, head coach Rachel

Janzen said.

Allen and Northwest traded leads on several occasions through the first half before the Mavericks took a 33-26 lead into halftime.

Northwest maintained the cushion through the second half, despite sterling play from Adji Mbaye and Jasmine Garcia down the stretch.

“But turnovers began to show their face,” Janzen said, including a pair of crucial lost possessions in the fourth quarter.

“The score was not indicative of how close

the game went at all,” Janzen said.

Reed drilled seven 3-pointers for 21 points, while Holloway added nine. Wilfong scored eight.

“The ladies made huge strides in their game tonight,” Janzen said.

The Red Devil squads return to action Saturday at home against Colby. The women start at noon, followed by the men at about 2 p.m.

Saturday’s home tilt will be the first allowing limited spectators in the Allen gymnasium.

el mainly because I’m excited to see what he’s going to do with competition that’s equally or close to his athleticism and ability.”

BROWN’S LEGACY

as a wrestler at IHS also is complete.

He stunned the Class 4A wrestling world as a junior when he defeated the state’s top two ranked heavyweight wrestlers, Evan Dean of Santa Fe Trail and Ayston Perez of Ulysses, both in dramatic fashion.

In both matches,

Brown’s opponents were inches away from pinning him before he rallied at the end to earn pins in both.

It was the first individual state wrestling title for an Iola athlete.

Alas, Brown decided against trying to defend his wrestling title after a strong start to the 2020-21 season.

A lingering foot injury and the desire to focus on grades prompted Brown to abandon his senior campaign on the wrestling mat.

“It’s just a little sore,” Brown said of

his foot.

WHILE at Butler, Brown intends to study biology in order to become a marine biologist.

He was joined by his mother, Teresa, at Wednesday’s signing ceremony. He thanked his high school coaches for their efforts to guide him along his athletic endeavors.

He also spoke highly of John Taylor, who coached Brown to a state championship as part of the Iola Kids Wrestling Club. “They meant a lot to me.”
