Plan to Avoid Special Session on Public Expenditures
Kansans face debate over public expenditure disclosure after Attorney General Parker argues constitutional publication is not self executing and requires legislative action. He also says county welfare powers lie with the state board, which may prohibit publishing relief client names and can oversee counties if rules are not followed. The plan seeks federal approval and potential restructuring of welfare supervision.
