Kelly vetoes Kansas bill to extend child support to fetuses
Governor Laura Kelly vetoed a bill that would require child support include direct pregnancy and birth costs back to conception. Supporters argued it covers pregnancy expenses while abortion rights groups warned of extending personhood to fetuses. Kelly called the measure an extreme bid to control women's medical decisions and said Kansans oppose lawmakers in personal matters. The Legislature adjourned, preventing an override, and Kelly signaled possible tax-cut actions in a future special session.
