Editorial attacks Kansas Chamber over Huelskamp EPA amendment
The piece criticizes the Kansas Chamber of Commerce for backing a late Huelskamp amendment barring state officials from enforcing federal clean air rules. Gov Parkinson vetoed the measure after utilities warned it would stall projects. The editorial calls the chamber’s rhetoric a black eye for Kansas and praises the governor’s stance on behalf of major state employers and voters.
