Kansas House rivals Senate redistricting map sparks clash
The Kansas House Appropriations Committee proposed its own Senate redistricting map after the Senate passed its version. The House says the Senate map dilutes western minority populations and risks constitutional issues, while Senate leaders accuse the House of attempting a power play and delaying candidate filings. The two chambers also consider a new congressional map affecting Riley County, Wichita, and Johnson County amid ongoing redraw debates.
