Josh Hawley bill would keep drivers' Flock data from being sold by police or stored indefinitely (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Missouri U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley on Wednesday joined with the American Civil Liberties Union and other advocates to try to curb how law enforcement uses Flock automated license plate reader data. "AI-powered cameras produced by Flock and its competitors are tracking and creating digital footprints of everyday Americans," the Republican said in a statement. Hawley called that "a nightmare for individual liberties unless Congress enacts meaningful rules and accountability." Hawley's legislation woul

Lee’s Summit police now require any police department that wants access to its Flock automated license plate reader system to sign a memorandum of understanding saying the data won’t be misused. “A decision was made that we would no longer share data we collect within our city with any other agency that could not guarantee the same level of data protection,” spokesman Sgt.

Manny Abarca ousted as Jackson County Legislature chairman (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For almost three hours, the Jackson County legislative meeting was routine, with discussions on how to spend federal dollars, who to fund with COMBAT anti-violence money and fixing dilapidated buildings at the University Health Lakewood Medical Center. Under the surface, though, legislators knew the motion to oust Manny Abarca as chairman was coming. Seemingly out of nowhere, Vice Chair Sean Smith moved to suspend the rules, and a few minutes later, Abarca was out. Smith said there is “general d
