Legislature ends quietly after turmoil over Kline firing
The 1999 Kansas legislature wrapped in sine die without further disruption. Senate President Dick Bond and Speaker Robin Jennison adjourned after brief sessions as changes in committee chairs followed Rep. Phill Kline's firing. Key lawmakers noted divisions among Republicans, while attendance was high but protests were limited. Wagle and Glasscock cited absence and procedural norms as reasons for the calm, with Rep. Adkins replacing Kline and shifts shifting chairs, all amid a clipped, ceremonial finish.
