Consumer protection report contrasts approaches in Kansas
The report from Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline’s consumer protection division claims a shift away from an anti business bias, linking lower recoveries to a focus on cracking down on the worst offenders. Critics say the new policy under Kline underprotects Kansans, noting prior years saw higher restitution and broader enforcement. The document coincides with campaign finance filings showing Morrison outraising Kline 2 to 1, and it weighs past versus current approaches to consumer protections, law, and state efforts.
