Kansas Guv Kelly Vetoes Trans Toilet Bill

Push back against the GOP super-majority as the guv calls out bathroom legislation . . .

The bill passed with support from more than two-thirds of the Republican-dominated state House and Senate, meaning supporters have a good chance of overriding Kelly’s veto and forcing the bill into law.

In a statement, Kelly said the legislation was "poorly drafted," leaving room for unintended consequences far beyond bathroom use.

"I believe the Legislature should stay out of the business of telling Kansans how to go to the bathroom and instead stay focused on how to make life more affordable for Kansans," she said.
