AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Housing Data: LendingTree analysis using Census data finds about 14.5 million U.S. homes vacant (roughly 1 in 10), with 2.6 million available to rent and fewer than 800,000 listed for sale—highlighting a mismatch between affordability pressure and unused housing stock. Earth Science: A 2.9-magnitude earthquake rattled Lake Michigan, with Illinois averaging about 10 quakes a year in a “stable continental region,” underscoring that even low-activity areas still see periodic tremors. Public Health Policy: A year after H.R. 1 Medicaid cuts, new reporting says provisions are already reducing children’s coverage and access, with RAND estimating large state Medicaid funding declines through 2034. STEM & Research (Arkansas): Lyon College chemistry/biology double major Catherine Mills earns a 2026 Barry Goldwater Scholarship for research on antibacterial compounds; Arkansas Tech sociology professor Julie Mikles-Schluterman is accepted to the HERS Leadership Institute. Energy & Industry (Arkansas link): Prairie Lithium says its Saskatchewan DLE unit arrived, and it’s described as about four times larger than the commercial DLE system at Standard Lithium’s Arkansas project. Tech & Safety: McAfee reports AI can identify where 9 out of 10 vacation photos were taken, raising risks of highly targeted scams.
