- BELL COUNTY, Texas (KWTX) - A group of animal advocates are gathering signatures to present to Bell County in hopes of getting the animal shelter removed from the sheriff’s office leadership.
Some say that those with the law need to focus on the law and those who work with animals should be in charge of maintaining the facility. While others say that law enforcement still serves a vital role in these operations.
Frances Fischer is the co-founder of Journey Home Rescue and she has been involved with the county for about a year trying to change the course for the animal shelter after learning of the high number euthanasias that take place every year.

Church leaders have said the tower would help address problems with streaming services and could support future residential development in the area.

Experts say there’s no single reason for the decline. KWTX posted a call-out to learn where the disconnect may be. While many teachers said they couldn’t speak publicly for fear of jeopardizing their jobs, they did share concerns about what they say is hurting student success.
KWTX sat down with a retired teacher and educator of 30 years to hear more about how constantly changing curriculum is impacting students.
“Literacy is the vehicle to which we make everything else make sense,” Lois Knox, a retired educator of more than 30 years and current teacher at Huntington Learning Center in Temple, says.

- BELL COUNTY, Texas (KWTX) - Bell County residents are demanding an end to tax breaks for data centers, saying those incentives are what’s drawing the companies there in the first place.
During Tuesday’s Commissioners Court meeting, residents pushed leaders to scrap tax abatements altogether. Commissioners pushed back, saying without that tool, they have no leverage over how those projects are built. But they also signaled change is coming.
Bell County commissioners said their hands are tied. Without zoning authority outside city limits, a tax abatement is one of the few tools they have to place any conditions on a project at all.
A tax abatement is a temporary reduction or exemption on property taxes a business would normally owe.

Katie Uhlaender is a five-time Olympian in the skeleton, and grew up in McGregor.
After the Supreme Court’s ruling, Uhlaender gave a quote to Fox News that reads in part:
“Today’s Supreme Court ruling is inspiring because it recognizes that protecting women as a biological class is not discrimination. It affirms that fairness matters, that reality matters, and that women shouldn’t have to apologize for asking for fair and safe competition. Without Fairness, there is no sport.”
