"Kansas’ education system is a mess, thanks to the Republican-led legislature’s budget cuts. Funding allocation is heavily biased against poorer schools, and the state’s Supreme Court ordered the legislature to fix it so it was both fair and in line with the state’s constitution. So what are these Republicans doing instead? They’re looking for ways to undermine the Supreme Court instead of doing their jobs. The Kansas Supreme Court said that all schools would remain closed across the state until the legislature fixed the funding problems. They’re supposed to meet on June 23, ahead of the June 30 deadline set by the court, to work on the issue. However, in a move that’s oh-so-typical of crooked Republicans, they’re going to meet next week to discuss an amendment to the state constitution to limit the power of the court, instead of understanding that they screwed up and putting forth an honest effort to fix education funding."
