Kansans urged to call Supreme Court over school funding
Kansas House Republican Campaign Committee urges citizens to contact the state Supreme Court ahead of a June 30 deadline to enact an equitable school funding system. The unusual ad argues the court may shut down schools for inequitable funds, while lawmakers return June 23 to address the ruling and potential funding orders. Critics say justices should not be influenced by public opinion and warn against holding districts hostage to funding disputes.
