Trump made the extraordinary move Monday in response to calls from his allies in Congress who say they believe the Russia investigation was tainted by anti-Trump bias within the ranks of the FBI and the Justice Department. Trump’s decision will re- sult in the release of text messages and documents involving several top Jus- tice Department and FBI officials who Trump has repeatedly attacked over the last year.

    FROM A GRAIN OF MUSTARD SEED BY CYNTHIA DAVIS ISBN 978-0-557-02763-7 THE MUSTARD SEED IS PLANTED 1872-1882 The seed that became St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral was found in the hearts of the small group of faithful Episcopalians who settled in Albuquerque. As a minority of the population, the Anglos found comfort in the familiarity of reading the 1789 Book of Common Prayer, the King James Bible, and the Calvary Cathechism. Very likely they followed the mandate in the Prayer Book stating, “The Psalter shall be read through once every month, as it is there appointed, both for Morning and for Evening Prayer.”i Under the strong spiritual direction of the Rev. Henry Forrester, both St. John’s and missions around the District would be planted, land purchased, and churches built. Other seeds were being planted in Albuquerque. Various denominations built churches in the midst of the homes where the new arrivals lived. Members could easily walk to the church of their choice. Many corner lots were taken up with small places of worship. Some Anglos attended the Methodist church built of adobe in 1880 at Third and Lead. Dr. Sheldon Jackson, established First Presbyterian Church in 1880. A one-room church was built at Fifth and Silver two years later under Rev. James Menaul. It was enlarged in 1905, and after a fire in 1938, the building was rebuilt and improved. (In 1954 it moved to 215 Locust.)ii St. Paul’s Lutheran Church was not built until 1891 at Sixth and Silver.

The first tie vote (49-49) was procedural, while the second tie (again 49-49) was on the actual confirmation motion. Gaining confirmation had been an unusually difficult challenge for the governor as all Senate Democrats opposed his appointment, and health problems had kept a couple of the Republican senators from always being present during the past month. Although a specific date has not been set for Brownback to commence his new post, he has announced he will resign as governor effective at 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 31 and Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer will be sworn in as governor in the same hour. AND COLYER MAKES FIVE When he is sworn in next week, Dr. Jeff Colyer will become the fifth Kansas Lt. Governor to ascend to the governorship upon the resignation of the sitting governor. Nehemiah Green (1868), Fred Hagaman (1950) and John McCuish (1957) did so and each served only a few days or a couple of weeks. However, if Colyer finishes Brownback’s term next January, he will then have served nearly a year as a non- elected governor. The only non-elected governor to serve a longer period of time (twenty months) was Lt.

    Kansas State Council of SHRM, Inc. 825 S. Kansas, Suite 502 • Topeka, KS 66612 (888) 332-6248 • [email protected] January 12, 2018 Legislative Update The 2018 Kansas Legislative Session commenced on Monday, January 8. Opening day was brief with only a quick gaveling in to begin the session before adjourning. The 2018 session was expected to be relatively quiet following last year’s fight over the budget that included a massive tax increase to close the $350 million dollar shortfall and put more money towards education. However, an October ruling by the Kansas Supreme Court stated that the increased funding passed in 2017 failed to meet the Adequacy portion of the Rose Standards for measuring achievement and that more money would have to be spent. This resulted in a series of interim committee meetings and cast a shadow over the upcoming session. The largest issue that must be decided this session is how the Legislature responds to the Supreme Court ruling and, if more money is to be spent, how much more and where will it come from. On Tuesday, Governor Brownback gave his final State of the State address. Governor Brownback was re-nominated for the position of Ambassador for Religious Freedom on Monday, January 8th by President Trump and is expected to be confirmed to the post in the coming months. After he is confirmed, he will resign as Governor and hand over the reins to current Lieutenant Governor Jeff Colyer. Governor Brownback’s speech was largely a reflection on his hopes for the future of the state and a listing of strides made in several areas including a continued reduction of the unemployment rate and the dramatic increase in wind energy over the last few years.
