Mosquito Surge Watch: Los Angeles is back on top of Orkin’s 2026 “mosquito cities” list, ranked the worst in the U.S. for mosquito-related problems—an annual spot it’s held since 2021—highlighting how these pests (and the diseases they can carry) are spreading beyond traditional hotspots. Air Pollution Fight: Virginia AG Jay Jones joined a coalition pushing back on an EPA proposal that would roll back national limits on ethylene oxide, calling it a direct threat to public health. Illinois Climate/Health Pressure: A new Illinois editorial argues federal budget cuts are hitting families at “kitchen table” level, with Medicaid and food assistance losses cascading into state strain. Regenerative Agriculture Push: ADM and Hill’s Pet Nutrition are partnering on regenerative practices across Illinois and Minnesota (plus a Hungary pilot), aiming for soil and watershed gains. Data Center Buildout: New fiber capacity plans linking Denver to Chicago underscore how AI demand is driving infrastructure investment across the Midwest.
