Kansas House debate sees Rep Josh Svaty protest an amendment raising the concealed carry permit age from 21 to 25. The measure failed as others shared concerns about fairness. The bill later passed. Regents seek to keep interest from student tuition, totaling about $2.7 million annually from six universities. Fort Hays State earns roughly $125,000, while Gov Sebelius expands live Internet press conferences starting next week. The House also heard an opening prayer on gambling concerns from Pastor Wayne Mason, father of opponent Bill Mason, with Mason’s children accompanying him. Correspondents Kessinger and Grenz report.
