Among its key items are a ban on child marriage and the end of the state seizing foster kids’ Social Security benefits. The House voted 129 to 14 to pass the measure, and state Sen. Mike Moon was the sole vote opposing the bill in the Senate.

UU., y aquí en Kansas City, muchos inmigrantes se sienten inseguros y preocupados por su futuro.
