Kansas governor extends stay-at-home directive until May 3

Body

Gov. Laura Kelly on Wednesday extended a stay-at-home order for all Kansas residents for an additional two weeks and called a teleconference with top legislators to consider $17 million in aid for hospitals.

The Democratic governor is keeping the shelter-in-place order in place until May 3, rather than Sunday, as initially planned. She's also continuing to limit in-person worship services and other religious gatherings to 10 or fewer people, despite criticism from the Republican-controlled Legislature.
