Kansas House just suspended the midnight rule so they can work into tomorrow, but today is the final day (90th day) of the legislative session according to the Kansas Constitution. So anything they do after midnight is arguably unconstitutional & invalid. #ksleg
Reminder that one of our state’s most recent domestic terrorism incidents was white nationalists plotting to bomb Somali immigrants in western KS. The threat Thompson fears is homegrown and sown by people like him and Kobach.

“These are people we know we have trouble with” - KS Sen. Thompson referring to immigrants from Cuba, Venezuela, & China. Justification for SB172 was lazy fear mongering. 9/11 was invoked several times as a response to serious questions about glaring concerns in the bill. #ksleg
10:30pm on Friday– Kansas House is debating a xenophobic bill (SB172). In negotiations legislators all acknowledged the bill may be unconstitutional & that the state will definitely be sued if they pass it into law, but here they are trying to pass it anyway. #ksleg
Motion to suspend the midnight rule passes. This is bad policy. We should never make policy under cover of darkness. Furthermore, drowsy legislators driving home in the early morning hours are a proven risk to public safety, as well as to themselves. Motion passes. 😔 #ksleg
Why is the Kansas Legislature working late into the night? Why wasn't school funding resolved weeks ago? Pressure. Legislators are sleep deprived now & can't go to bed until they pass the bills. They start breaking & accepting policies they don't actually support. #ksleg
Waking up for the last day of the #ksleg regular session like:
Rep. Proctor (R) is arguing that in order to stop disenfranchising voters in Kansas we must disenfranchise even more voters in Kansas. SB14 would throw out Kansans mail ballots & block many Kansans from even registering to vote. #ksleg
It's frustrating to watch the race to the bottom in the Kansas Legislature. Maneuvers designed to undermine the legislative process & block public participation quickly go from outrageous to business as usual. Gut-and-Go used to be controversial, but now it's the norm. #ksleg

The Kansas Legislature is Broken You spend months researching, writing, & giving testimony on bills just for a few legislators to shove brand new ideas that have never been proposed, discussed, or vetted into conference committee bills at the very end of session. #ksleg
ALERT 🚨 The Kansas Legislature created a monster of a voter suppression. We need to let our legislators know now: VOTE NO ON SB14 AND ANY OTHER VOTER SUPPRESSION BILLS GO HERE: secure.everyaction.com/mhQBiHjN6EOVNP… #kansas #ksleg
What a day for the Kansas Statehouse livestream feeds to be super buggy. Video streams freezing as legislators say what bills are being bundled together in conference committees. #ksleg
Today, I made a motion to withdraw HB 2177 (repealing the statutory ban on same-sex marriage) from Federal & State Affairs and place it on the House General Orders. The House will vote on the motion on Monday, April 1st. #ksleg No hearing has taken place since intro'd 1/25/23.
“The Chairman [Thompson] isn’t even aware of what [the bill] says.” - Sen. Pyle dissing Thompson for being unable to answer questions about his bill. Legislators carrying bills they do not understand & cannot answer questions about is becoming far too common in Kansas. #ksleg

After years of advocating for a polling place at Fort Hays State, students and community members delivered a petition with nearly 500 signatures to County Clerk Bobbi Dreiling.
The House just abruptly abandoned the chamber because debris was flying sideways outside the window. #ksleg
Tornado sirens are going off in Topeka, but it looks like the House is going to proceeds with its work as normal. House GOP caucus was told to move away from windows, but kept going. #ksleg #kswx
Tornado Warning including Jackson County, KS, Pottawatomie County, KS, Shawnee County, KS until 6:00 PM CDT
This is my first session where they've scheduled Sine Die during the veto session, which means it's the first time we are RUSHING on the very last day to get a bunch of wide-ranging policies, taxes, etc. #ksleg
The latest tax proposal from the Tax Conference Committee got even more expensive than the last one the Governor vetoed, citing the long-term costs of the plan. Are we serious about passing a tax plan the Governor will sign or not? #ksleg
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all you did! #ksleg

Thank you to all in #ksleg who voted to sustain the veto. 🏳️⚧️ #TransYouth #TransRights
Breaking: the KS Legislature has failed to override Gov. Kelly’s veto on SB 233 today. It will NOT become law. This extreme attempt to ban access to healthcare for trans youth would also have censored a huge variety of conduct by state employees. #ksleg aclukansas.org/en/press-relea…
My girl @MelissaStiehler is more than capable of big things. So many owe her an awful lot.
A ton of folks came together to make these wins possible, but when it came to stopping SB233, the most extreme attack on transgender children in the country, @MelissaStiehler deserves a lot of the credit & saw a way to win when most folks thought it was a lost cause. #ksleg
We fought so hard for this. We needed this. Trans kids and their families needed this. We have more work to do, but tonight we can breathe. If you have a trans kid- hug them tonight. We won't stop fighting for you. 🏳️⚧️🌻
Incredible news. Kansas has SUSTAINED the governors veto of a gender affirming care ban. Representative Concannan, who voted for the bill before, backed off, citing government overreach and interference with families medical decisions. You can thank her at @ConcannonforKS
The #ksleg coming in clutch!
Backers of a ban on gender care for minors in Kansas fail to override the governor's veto apnews.com/article/gender…
@Davis_Hammet @MelissaStiehler Melissa is good people. A fierce advocate and a good friend. I'm glad she's by our side. This session was ROUGH.
The #ksleg house still has to vote on SB 233, the anti-trans care bill, before it becomes law! If you want to send a last minute message to your representatives telling them to VOTE NO, go to loudlightaction.org/trans-rights
“What is the acceptable number of youth suicides?” Senate overrides Gov. Laura Kelly's veto of law banning gender-affirming care, including restriction on state employees using preferred pronouns #ksleg kansasreflector.com/2024/04/29/kan…
So grateful for educators like @mxhoffzales and the amazing folks at @loud_light like @MelissaStiehler who fought to protect the right of our young people to be who they are!
