Graves undecided on maps in Kansas redistricting
Gov. Bill Graves has not endorsed any redistricting proposals or been actively involved in drawing lines.

The House and Senate have each approved their plans and plan to avoid altering the other's map, while the Senate panel endorsed a congressional map extending the 1st District from Colorado to Kansas’s northeast corner and keeping most of western Kansas.

Lawmakers urged not to alter Kansas license rules
A U S immigration agent urged Kansas lawmakers not to allow undocumented immigrants to obtain driver licenses via a Taxpayer Identification Number. He warned licenses would require officers to detect forged documents, with estimates of 30,000 undocumented residents in the Kansas City area and concerns over security and insurance costs. The House Judiciary Committee took no action on Substitute for House Bill 2135, as advocates pressed for residency rules and agencies differed on the issue.
