Highlights from the Kansas Legislature

Highlights of Friday’s activities at the Kansas Legislature:

  • The Greenwood County sheriff’s death illustrates the need for a bill combatting methamphetamine manufacturing, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and legislative leaders said.
  • The governor endorsed repealing a 7-month-old law that critics say has forced some Kansans to pay too much sales tax on used vehicles.

Also:

After a second week without action on education funding, Democrats said the Republican-controlled Legislature needs to move more quickly.

Clock is ticking:

Friday was the 12th calendar day of the session, out of 90 scheduled.
