BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The year in news in North Dakota began with the end of a yearlong protest against the Dakota Access oil pipeline that attracted thousands of demonstrators to the Standing Rock Indian Reservation. The year ended with attempts to settle a protest against another massive project, the Red River diversion.<\/p>\n

In addition to protests, there were vigils after a pair of shocking killings in a state known for its low crime rate. Rolette County Sheriff’s Deputy Colt Allery was slain in a shootout after a stolen car chase. He is believed to be the 57th officer in the state to die while on duty.<\/p>\n

And residents were trying to come to grips with the death of a pregnant Fargo woman allegedly killed by neighbors who wanted to keep her baby.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The U.S. Census Bureau says North Dakota’s population shrank slightly over the last year after several years of growth.<\/p>\n

According to a census estimate released Wednesday, North Dakota was among a handful of states that lost population. As of July 1, North Dakota’s population was estimated at 755,393, down 155 from a revised estimate of 755,548 the same time a year ago.<\/p>\n

North Dakota’s estimated population has grown since the 2010 Census pegged it at more at 672,000. The state’s population grew as the Bakken oil boom peaked.<\/p>\n

According to North Dakota Census Office manager Kevin Iverson, figures suggest some young adults who moved into the state have left.<\/p>\n

North Dakota’s population is still near an all-time high, and has grown by an estimated 83,000 residents since the 2010 census.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Technical issues with a correctional facility’s video visitation system have left some inmates in western North Dakota unable to receive visitors for about two months.<\/p>\n

KXMB-TV reports<\/a> that the video visitation system in the older part of the Williams County Correctional Center is inoperable for more than two dozen inmates. County Sheriff Verlan Kvande says the technical issues come from system upgrades.<\/p>\n

Kvande says that jail standards prohibit inmates in the older part of the facility to transfer to the newer part for visitation purposes. He says it’s unfair to inmates and an unfortunate circumstance.<\/p>\n

There is no time frame for when the video visitation system will be fully operational again.<\/p>\n

Construction to expand the correctional facility has also led to other issues, including plumbing and door and camera electronics.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 The North Dakota Department of Agriculture says its disbursed funds to eligible producers for a portion of hay transportation expenses incurred between June and mid-November.<\/p>\n

Producers applied for about $4 million in assistance. The state Department of Emergency Service approved $1.5 million for the emergency hay transportation assistance program.<\/p>\n

So producers are getting about 36 percent of their eligible application costs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

Washington\u00a0 (Fox News) The House gave the final stamp of approval Wednesday to a sweeping tax reform package<\/a>, handing President Trump his first major legislative victory and most Americans a tax cut starting next year.<\/p>\n

With a\u00a0224-201 House vote, Congress sent the $1.5 trillion package to Trump\u2019s desk. The biggest rewrite of the federal tax code since the Reagan administration will usher in steep rate cuts for American companies, double the deduction millions of families claim on their annual returns and make a host of other changes taking effect in a matter of weeks.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump has declared “Obamacare” dead. But it actually lives on. He said Wednesday that the tax bill he’ll be signing into law quietly repeals President Barack Obama’s health care law. But as an AP Fact Check finds, it only takes away fines on people who fail to carry health insurance. That’s a major change. But other big elements remain in place, like subsidies for individual policies, Medicaid expansion and rules against denying coverage to people with pre-existing illness.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump’s top economics aide insists he is staying at the White House after Congress approved the tax overhaul. Gary Cohn, the former second-in-command at the investment bank Goldman Sachs, had stirred some frustration with Trump after criticizing the president’s reaction to the white supremacy rally this year in Charlottesville, Virginia.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The government shutdown clock is ticking toward a Friday midnight deadline, and congressional Republicans are scrambling to finalize a must-pass spending bill. A major obstacle has evaporated _ after key GOP senators dropped a demand to add health insurance subsidies for the poor. The No. 2 House Republican says party leaders have scrapped plans to combine a short-term spending bill with $81 billion worth of disaster aid and a $658 billion Pentagon funding measure.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Now that federal telecom regulators have repealed net neutrality, it may be time to brace for the arrival of internet “fast lanes” and “slow lanes.” The Associated Press queried seven major internet providers about their post-net-neutrality plans, and all of them equivocated when asked if they might establish fast and slow lanes. None of the seven companies _ Verizon, AT&T, Comcast, Charter, Cox, Sprint and T-Mobile _ would rule out the possibility.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BOSTON (AP) \u2014 A Boston lawyer who has represented dozens of people who say they were abused by priests calls the late Cardinal Bernard Law “an example of the immorality of the Catholic Church” for shielding clergy. Mitchell Garabedian says Law was “an enabler of clergy sexual abuse.” Garabedian was flanked by two people who said they were abused by priests as children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
