Amendment aims to redefine school funding in Kansas
The proposed constitutional change would shift from a mandate to provide suitable funding to a stipulation that funds be equitably distributed as determined by the Legislature. Supporters say current language underpins school progress, while opponents warn it could weaken education funding duties. The committee did not vote, and such amendments require two thirds majorities to reach a voter ballot.

Whit Brooks apologized to victims after burglary at a university program, while an assistant district attorney called the crime serious. Brooks must stay in Texas, register as a violent offender, and follow an intensive probation and treatment plan. If probation is violated, nearly four years in prison. Greene, a former MidAmerica Nazarene University football player in Olathe, faces an April 1 sentencing.
