With the gavel yet to fall announcing the beginning of the 2019 Kansas legislative session, the mood feels challenging, if not outright ominous.
Faced with a Democratic governor, Republican leaders are setting an obstructionist course on everything from school finance to prison reform, the expansion of Medicaid to anti-discrimination measures.
Reminiscent of the GOPs no-compromise pledge in 2010 The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President (Barack) Obama to be a one-term president, vowed Sen. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell todays Kansas Republicans appear equally determined to undermine Gov.-elect Laura Kellys agenda.
