Kansas Republican Party circulates mailers in districts including east Wichita House District 88 depicting an ISIS fighter with a “Have you met the new neighbors” message. The other side touts funding to train officers to recognize foreign and domestic threats. GOP officials defend the tactic citing safety and prior incidents, while critics call it scare tactics linking Muslims to terror.
