Kansas lawmakers pass bill to deter foreign spies and terrorists, increasing prison time for agents who harass, threaten, or coerce U.S. citizens. The bill, House Bill twenty-four thirteen, received unanimous votes and is now headed to the governor. The move aims to protect Kansas residents from transnational repression, with supporters citing real cases and the need for local law enforcement to fight back. Critics argue that a one-level sentence bump may not deter spies. The bill also includes tougher penalties for livestock theft and decriminalizes trap-neuter-release for feral cats.
