Legislature Delays and Bills Shape Kansas 2014 Agenda
Kansas lawmakers delayed due to snow as SCR 1608 advances toward a vote. The measure seeks a voters’ decision on financing education under Article 6, Section 6, while other bills address AMA wage loss claims, judicial recusal, abortion on sex grounds, and extending the Technical Education Authority. SR 1711 opposes the federal safe harbor for ferret reintroduction. SB 27 expands the Military Service Scholarship. SB 163, mandating ACA related insurance options, passes the Senate 38-1. Caryn Tyson, state senator for District 12, is referenced with contact details.
