On Monday, June 9, Judge Kathy Surrat-States approved the sale of KDHX’s FCC license.

The decision validates the integrity of our actions and affirms what we as an organization have known all along: that our efforts have been in good faith, in full compliance with our bylaws, and in service to our mission. 

As the court recognized, this transition allows KDHX to continue serving St. Louis and the region, while opening the door to new possibilities. This is not the end—it is the beginning. We look forward to reimagining and revitalizing how we bring our community together through innovative, community-driven media.

From St. Louis Public Radio:

“The sale is in [KDHX’s] best interest, the sale is in good faith, it maximizes value,” Surratt-States said, “and it allows [KDHX] to continue to broadcast and continue to serve the community of St. Louis and the region.”

Surratt-States said KDHX leaders followed the law throughout the process, acted in good faith and only used powers that were granted to them by station bylaws. She also said KDHX’s impending reinvention as a digital-only station is a fulfillment of its mission.

Lawyers opposing the sale did not introduce any direct evidence pertaining to efforts by the Coalition for KDHX to raise funds and develop a reorganization plan, saving references to that effort for a closing argument.

From STL Today:

Following a lengthy hearing, Judge Kathy A Surratt-States denied each objection to the sale made by a coalition of the station's supporters, plaintiffs in an unrelated case against the station, a creditor, and a group of former DJs and other volunteers called the League of Volunteer Enthusiasts of KDHX.

On each point, Surratt-States agreed with the station's lawyers that the objections had no merit or were mitigated by the circumstances.

SPRINGFIELD — Rep. Amy Elik addressed members of the North Alton-Godfrey Business Association this week, providing an overview of recent legislative developments in Illinois, including the passage of the FY 26 state budget, drug affordability efforts, and her own legislative initiatives. Elik said the FY 26 state budget, the Build Illinois Multi-Year Plan (BIMP), and the accompanying revenue package were passed just before the May 31 deadline after what she described as “Democrats conspired behind closed doors to raise taxes to pay for pork projects, raise their own pay, and fund services for illegal immigrants.” A significant portion of Elik’s remarks focused on the Prescription Drug Affordability Act (HB1697), which passed both the House and Senate. The legislation aims to lower drug costs by regulating pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs), who are often accused of inflating drug prices. Elik described the act as “extremely complex, complicated, and
