Letter to the editor: Invitation declined

To the editor:

Laura Kelly was right not to attend President Trump’s White House meeting for newly elected governors. Kansas Republican Chair Kelly Arnold’s criticism that by not going “she didn’t want to represent her state” is intellectually dishonest. She has given her life to representing Kansas. His statement that “it would be nice to have a seat at the table” is small minded and insulting. She DOES have a seat at the table — the table of moral integrity and human decency. Kelly Arnold owes our governor an apology.

Rob Hudson,

Lawrence
