Attorney General Jay Jones Announces Voter Protection Section
Section will serve as affirmative voter protection arm of the OAG and enforce Virginia's existing voting rights laws
-
RICHMOND, Va. - Attorney General Jones announced the launch of the Office of the Attorney General's Voter Protection Section. Attorney General Jones launched this section to address the continued erosion of the federal Voting Rights Act, Donald Trump's relentless attacks on our democracy, and his administration'sefforts to impede access to the ballot.
Attorneys General play an indispensable role in protecting our democracy, especially in the courtroom. We have seen that play out in recent months as courts around the nation have blocked the Trump Administration's illegal efforts to undermine elections. These legal victories are critical to protecting ballot access, but there is also a need to ensure that the laws intended to protect the rights of individual voters, and groups of voters, are observed and that violations are consistently enforced, which is why Attorney General Jones is announcing this new section.
The mission of the Voter Protection Section is to protect Virginians' right to register, vote, and have their vote counted. The section will also be laser-focused on ensuring that election laws are carried out fairly and free from unlawful interference. The section will protect voters by enforcing Virginia's election laws, including laws that guard against improper registration cancellations, absentee ballot denials, and interference with voting and election administration. The section will also enforce the Virginia Voting Rights Act, and laws protecting voters with disabilities and military voters.
"I was raised by people who understood that the right to vote was never simply given. Generations of Americans had to sacrifice, organize, and show extraordinary courage to claim that right," said Attorney General Jay Jones. "That history is personal to me, and it reminds us that the work of civil rights and voting rights is never finished.
"That is why we created a dedicated Voter Protection Section within the Office of the Attorney General. This work now has a permanent home, and a team focused every day on defending voting rights and enforcing Virginia law. Virginia votes every year, and protecting the franchise must be a year-round responsibility. In Virginia, the right to vote will be defended."
"The Voter Protection Section will have a clear mission: enforce Virginia's voting rights laws, investigate threats to ballot access, and review proposed election changes that could affect voters," said Ajay Saini, Voter Protection Section Chief. "That includes issues like discriminatory redistricting, poll site changes, voter intimidation, improper registration cancellations, language access, and barriers facing voters with disabilities, students, and military voters. Virginia holds elections every year, so this is year-round work. And at a time when the Trump administration has sought to push the federal government further into the administration of state elections, we will work closely with the Department of Elections and the Federal Accountability Unit to protect Virginia's authority, the integrity of our elections, and every eligible voter's right to be heard."

Attorney General's Office Releases Additional Information Regarding Fatal Police-Involved Shooting in Middle Township
October 14, 2026
TRENTON -- The Attorney General's Office provided additional details today concerning the circumstances surrounding an encounter with law-enforcement officers that occurred Friday, September 25, 2026, in Middle Township, which resulted in the death of an adult male civilian. The civilian who died during the encounter has been identified as Andre Moore,37, of Cape May Courthouse, NJ.
According to the preliminary investigation, at approximately 10:21 a.m. on September 25, 2026, Middle Township Police Officers encountered a disabled vehicle in the intersection of Route 9 and Satt Boulevard in the Rio Grande section of Middle Township. Officers had previously attempted to make a motor vehicle stop of this vehicle but had not been successful.
Officers approached and heard a female screaming from within the vehicle. Officers made forced entry to the vehicle and observed an adult male civilian with a knife, holding a knife to an adult female civilian. Middle Township Officers Christopher Rudy and Ty Pettit discharged their firearms, striking the male. The male civilian was subsequently pronounced deceased. The female civilian was transported to a medical facility for treatment of multiple stab wounds.
A 2019 law, N.J.S.A. 52:17B-107(a)(2), requires the Attorney General's Office to conduct investigations of a person's death that occurs during an encounter with a law enforcement officer acting in the officer's official capacity or while the decedent is in custody. It requires that all such investigations be presented to a grand jury to determine if the evidence supports the return of an indictment against the officer or officers involved.

Boundaries Set for Kansas City Chiefs STAR Bonds District
Oct 13, 2026
Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland today published the boundaries for the Kansas City Chiefs STAR Bonds District, as authorized by K.S.A. 12-17, 160 et. al.
The STAR Bond district will collect new sales tax revenues to finance the construction of the $3 billion state-of-the-art domed stadium in Wyandotte County, the Chiefs headquarters and training facility in Olathe and portions of the surroundingmixed-used development.
The district represents a diverse revenue stream that includes the cities of Kansas City, Bonner Springs, Edwardsville, Shawnee, Lenexa and Olathe. The map was designed around clear goals shared by the Administration and the Legislature:
* Maximize the economic impact of the project
* Pay the bonds off as early as possible so those revenues can be directed to the State and participating local communities
This map determines the area from which the State will pledge incremental State sales-tax revenues that currently do not exist. It does not affect any pledge of local revenues.
Three geographic areas are specifically excluded from the district: The University of Kansas Medical Center complex and the area immediately surrounding it, a portion of the City of Shawnee that is predominantly vacant, and existing STAR Bond districts.
"Establishing the district boundaries moves us one step closer to building the Chiefs' new state-of-the art domed stadium in Kansas," Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland said. "This is a once-in-a-generation economic opportunity for Kansas and we will ensure that all Kansans enjoy the benefits of this new stadium for many, many years to come."
The $4 billion project, which includes $1 billion of mixed-use development, will be financed through a public-private partnership. The public portion is funded through the STAR Bonds as well as the Attracting Professional Sports to Kansas Fund - established for this purpose - to ensure there will be no new state taxes and no impact on the state budget.
Once fully operational, the Chiefs project will create more than 4,000 new permanent jobs and generate $1 billion in annual economic impact.
The Chiefs will begin playing in the new stadium, which will be owned by the people of Kansas and leased to the team, in 2031. The newly appointed Kansas Sports Facilities Authority will oversee the new stadium and practice facility. By statute, the 11-member Authority will oversee the construction, financing and management of the sports facilities and associated infrastructure.

Governor Moore and Maryland Department of Labor Announce $16.4 Million in Rural Health Transformation Program Workforce Awards
ANNAPOLIS, MD -- Governor Wes Moore and the Maryland Department of Labor today announced $16.4 million in grant awards through the Maryland Rural Health Transformation Program to address critical healthcare workforce shortages in the state. These awards fund projects that are ready for rapid deployment and that will have a sustained impact.
"Every Marylander deservesquality and accessible healthcare and job opportunities, no matter their zipcode," said Gov Moore. "Through the Maryland Rural Health Transformation Program we're tackling healthcare workforce shortages to drive health outcomes for Maryland's rural communities and leave no one behind."
"Expanding Maryland's highly-skilled healthcare workforce requires a commitment to supporting our homegrown talent at all levels," said Maryland Department of Labor Secretary Portia Wu. "This initiative will help Maryland's rural communities recruit new health care professionals, train allied health workers, expand apprenticeships, and retain highly skilled professionals, including registered nurses and dentists. These investments will help us build a resilient pipeline of dedicated health care workers who are rooted in the rural Maryland communities they serve."
The awards announced today directly support two key programs aimed at bolstering and retaining healthcare professionals in Maryland's 18 rural regions: Pathways to Health Careers and Rural Incentives for Strengthening Employment in Healthcare (RISE).
The Pathways to Health Careers initiative is designed for immediate impact: rapidly training Marylanders for entry-level and peer-supported health care roles in rural communities. The goal is to alleviate the shortage of allied health professionals, such as Community Health Workers and Certified Peer Recovery Specialists. One part of the program focuses on registered apprenticeships and the other removes financial barriers for training and certification.
The RISE program is designed to boost the retention of mid-level and advanced practice professionals in rural Maryland and to provide education and enrichment activities to future healthcare professionals. One track focuses on training, recruiting, and retaining advanced practice professionals, including registered nurses, physician assistants, physicians, and dentists. Another track exposes students to career opportunities and upskilling incumbent workers, to ensure a steady stream of talent for vital healthcare roles.
Grant recipients range from county health departments and community colleges to local maternal health care and mental health care organizations across all rural Maryland regions. For example, in Southern Maryland, the Charles County Health Department will use funds to build a sustainable pipeline of dental assistants, with participants receiving education through the College of Southern Maryland and wraparound assistance to address barriers such as tuition, transportation, and uniforms. Also receiving funding is the University of Maryland Eastern Shore's Eastern Shore Health Careers Pipeline Program, which will prepare local students in grades 6-12 for priority health occupations through career awareness, career readiness, and sustained near-peer mentorship.
A full list of grant recipients is available on the Maryland Department of Labor's program website.
"Our rural communities face unique health care challenges and deserve an approach that addresses local needs with local solutions," said Maryland Department of Health Secretary Dr. Meena Seshamani. "This investment will provide critical support to strengthen the local health care workforce, bolster current programs and implement evidence-based strategies that will have lasting impacts on the health and wellbeing of rural Maryland families."
In December 2025, Maryland was awarded $168 million in federal funding for the Rural Health Transformation Program's first budget period to strengthen and modernize health care in the state's 18 designated rural areas. Maryland's Rural Health Transformation Program funding, which is renewable over five years, will enhance the state's ongoing efforts to improve health care access and affordability in Maryland's rural communities. The program is facilitated by the Maryland Department of Health, with workforce components coordinated by partners including the Maryland Department of Labor.
This program is part of Maryland's larger strategic investment in growing the healthcare workforce. It complements initiatives such as the Direct Care Workforce Innovation Program, which focuses on professions like home health aides and certified nursing assistants; the Career Pathways for Healthcare Workers Program, which focuses on incumbent healthcare worker training; and the new Maryland Pay It Forward Fund, which supports nursing students.
* * *
Federal Funding Disclosure: The Maryland Rural Health Transformation Program is supported by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of a financial assistance award to the Maryland Department of Health totaling $168,180,837.61 in budget period 1, with 100 percent funded by CMS/HHS. The contents of this release are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the official view of, nor an endorsement by, CMS/HHS or the U.S. Government.

The Maryland Department of Labor strives to create an equitable and inclusive Maryland where all residents have the opportunities and resources to attain financial stability, reach their career potential, and contribute to their communities; where businesses have access to capital and the skilled workforce they need to succeed; where workplaces are safe and well-regulated; and where the economy is resilient and growing.

Colorado Courts announce free resources for tenants facing eviction
Oct. 13, 2026, DENVER--Thanks to a groundbreaking eviction recovery program in the 4th Judicial District, online resources are now available statewide to assist tenants facing eviction.
Launched as a pilot program with grant funding from the National Center for State Courts in Nov. 2023, the 4th JD's Division CARE (Court-Assisted Recovery from Eviction) program has developed robust community partnerships as well as streamlined,easy-to-access tools to reduce docket congestion, increase clarity in eviction pleadings, and strengthen public confidence in the judicial process.
Andrea Paprzycki, a magistrate in the 4th JD, said she created Division CARE to help the courts partner with all the El Paso County agencies that support residents facing housing instability. Through this program, the court developed a coordinated model with more than 60 community agencies, tools to support those facing eviction, and a manual for other Colorado judicial districts interested in replicating the program.
"There is no other program like this in the country," said Magistrate Paprzycki. "Prior to the program, El Paso County residents facing eviction had to sort through dozens of community resources on their own. Division CARE emerged as a way for tenants to avoid eviction and create housing stability in El Paso County."
The program provides support before eviction through direct connection with vetted, targeted, stabilizing resources. While funding ended in August, Division CARE will continue in El Paso County through community partnerships and new online tools, some that can be used by anyone in Colorado. These tools simplify filings, connect tenants to financial and legal assistance, reduce time in court, and provide targeted recovery resources, streamlining the experience for all parties involved in eviction cases.
These free resources are available online:
* A bilingual eviction advisement video provides tenants facing eviction with important information in English and Spanish. An eviction summons now includes a link and QR code to the video on the Colorado Judicial Department website.
* A free automated tenant answer tool streamlines eviction claims for tenants. The online tool was developed with Staci Pratt, a professor at the University of Colorado School of Law.
* (El Paso County only) An eviction diversion & recovery resource application tool developed with ScaleJustice provides a self-directed tenant interview that offers resources to tenants in El Paso County based on their individual situations.
From Nov. 2023 to August 2026, the program assisted 5,550 people in housing crisis, connected 20% to emergency rent assistance, and resolved 15% of filed evictions before trial was set.
As one client from Colorado Springs said: "They helped me navigate the eviction process [and] provided vital information. It felt like a life raft thrown to someone lost at sea."
If you would like more information or to request assistance, tenants and stakeholders can contact 4thjdaccessibilityrequests@judicial.state.co.us.

Attorney General Raul Torrez Finds Outfitter Set-Aside Unconstitutional Putting Out-of-State Hunters Ahead of New Mexico Families
October 13, 2026
Opinion finds program gives outfitters exclusive access to public wildlife for little more than a registration fee; 90 percent of set-aside elk tags went to nonresidents
-
Santa Fe, NM -- Attorney General Raul Torrez issued a formal legal opinion, requested by members of the New Mexico Legislature, concluding that the state's "outfitterset-aside" violates the anti-donation clause of the New Mexico Constitution. In the 2022-23 season, more than 90 percent of set-aside elk licenses went to out-of-state hunters, while New Mexico families competed for what was left in an oversubscribed public draw.
"For generations, hunting elk on our public lands hasn't just been a sport in New Mexico. It's been a way of life. It's how families put meat on the table, how kids learn the land from their parents and grandparents, and how rural communities stay connected to the ground beneath them," said Attorney General Raul Torrez. "That tradition is being sold out from under working New Mexicans. Right now, a broken system lets wealthy out-of-state hunters buy their way to the front of the line while our own families wait year after year for a tag. Our Constitution is clear: New Mexico's wildlife belongs to the people of this state, not to whoever can afford an outfitter's fee."
About the Opinion:
The outfitter set-aside reserves 10 percent of New Mexico's big game draw licenses for hunters who contract with a registered outfitter. The opinion concludes that the program gives outfitters exclusive commercial access to a valuable part of the state's license pool without the consideration the Constitution requires.
When the Legislature adopted the current program in 2011, it attached significant conditions. Outfitters had to invest in New Mexico property, employ New Mexico workers, and pay state taxes, reflecting a legislative judgment that exclusive access to public tags should be matched by real commitments to the people of New Mexico.
A 2012 federal injunction eliminated those requirements for individual outfitters while leaving the set-aside itself intact. As a result, many outfitters now receive access to a valuable portion of New Mexico's publicly owned wildlife without providing anything beyond the standard registration fee every outfitter pays simply to operate. The opinion explains that this arrangement is a donation in substance and violates the anti-donation clause, which prohibits the State from transferring something of value to private parties without genuine, proportionate consideration.
The opinion further finds that, even if the $500 fee counted as payment, it is far too little for what outfitters get. The set-aside works like an exclusive franchise, giving outfitters something no one else has: the right to sell clients a better shot at a hard-to-get tag. That advantage helps outfitters charge $10,000 or more for an elk hunt. The State gets nothing extra for it. Every outfitter pays the same $500 fee, whether it uses the set-aside or not.
The opinion also identifies constitutional concerns with the Department of Wildlife's practice of aggregating bighorn sheep tags across multiple hunt units. If the Department's only documented reason for combining these tags is to generate set-aside allocations that would not otherwise exist, that practice independently violates the anti-donation clause by expanding the value conferred on outfitters without any corresponding public benefit.
Finally, the opinion notes that New Mexico's Public Trust Doctrine, the constitutional basis for the State's duty to manage natural resources for the benefit of all residents, assigns responsibility for implementing resource management policy to the Legislature.
New Mexico Is a Western Outlier:
New Mexico residents receive only about 65 percent of their state's elk licenses. In neighboring elk states, residents receive roughly 80 to 90 percent or more, Wyoming about 81 percent, Idaho and Montana about 87 to 89 percent, and Arizona at least 90 percent by statute. In Idaho and Wyoming, outfitter tags come out of the nonresident quota, leaving residents' share untouched. In New Mexico, the outfitter pool is carved from the same public draw New Mexico families apply to.
"We've always believed the outfitter set-aside is illegal, and we're pleased that Attorney General Torrez has concluded that in his legal opinion," said Jesse Deubel, executive director of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation. "Now our focus should be to put more tags in the hands of New Mexico residents. We thank Chairman Small and the Legislators who requested this opinion. We look forward to working in the next legislative session to reform the system that has been rigged against resident hunters for too long."
The opinion is a legal analysis, not a court order or a repeal of the statute. Attorney General Torrez is calling on the Legislature to take up the issue in the upcoming session, either by repealing the outfitter set-aside or rebuilding it with real, enforceable consideration that benefits New Mexico residents. If the set-aside is removed, state law directs that those licenses be returned to the resident pool wherever practicable, meaning more opportunity for New Mexico hunters.
"I'd rather see the Legislature fix this the right way, through the democratic process," said Attorney General Torrez. "But make no mistake, my office is not going to let an unconstitutional program keep shortchanging New Mexico families indefinitely. If the Legislature doesn't act, we will look at every tool available to this office, including going to court to stop it."

Art in Public Buildings Artwork Selected for University of Wyoming Aquatic Center
LARAMIE, Wyo. - Oct. 13, 2026 - Artist Michele Gutlove has been selected to create a new public artwork, Dive In!, for the University of Wyoming Aquatic Center through the Art in Public Buildings program, administered by the Wyoming Arts Council.
Gutlove's artwork is inspired by the reflections and movement of water, as well as the swimmers and divers who use the facility. Usingglass-firing techniques, Gutlove will create dozens of glass plates that will be suspended from the ceiling of the Aquatic Center's main hall. Spotlights will illuminate the installation, creating the effect of underwater reflections and movement as visitors make their way to the pool.
The Art in Public Buildings selection process begins with a public Request for Qualifications (RFQ), followed by the selection of finalists and review by a project committee. Wyoming artists are given preference throughout the process. The committee for this project, which included key stakeholders from the University of Wyoming and members of the Laramie community, selected Gutlove's proposal for the new facility.
The Art in Public Buildings program is administered by the Wyoming Arts Council and was established in 1991 to set aside a portion of capital construction funds for the commissioning of public art. Since then, more than 200 works of art have been placed in and around public buildings across Wyoming. Gutlove, who is based in Natick, Massachusetts, will add a new site-specific work at the University of Wyoming to that collection.
