TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas is now reporting 18 confirmed cases of the coronavirus.
As the state hustles to control the virus, the House has approved a bill to give laid-off workers another 10 weeks of unemployment benefits. After the measure cleared a committee Tuesday morning, the chamber canceled all of its remaining committee meetings until further notice.
Also Tuesday, the Kansas Lottery Commission announced it will close the four state-owned casinos until at least March 30.
Gov. Laura Kelly has banned all gatherings of more than 50 people until May 1.
