Josh Hawley’s Senate hearing put Flock-style license-plate cameras under a microscope, with lawmakers and witnesses arguing the systems can sweep up Americans’ movements without due process and raise Fourth Amendment concerns.

Accountability push: Separate reporting from Indiana says prosecutors charged five Indianapolis officers over alleged misuse of Flock access, adding momentum to calls for safeguards. Missouri business impact: St. Louis’ Ballpark Village firms are leaning into year-round events to offset Cardinals crowd swings, while gas watch shows Missouri prices still uneven by county (regular lows like $3.89 in Crawford County; diesel lows around $5.25 in Madison County).
