Kobach bills target immigration enforcement with highway patrol
Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach faces criticism after proposing bills that would force the Kansas Highway Patrol to negotiate with the U S Department of Homeland Security on immigration enforcement. Rep. John Whitmer introduced two Kobach drafted measures at a House committee meeting, prompting questions about jurisdiction and resource allocation. Lt. Adam Winters said the patrol was not consulted and would review any bill if introduced. Critics argued the move risks public safety and duplicates federal ICE duties.
