“Demonstrators took to the Capitol Monday to push back against what they see as dangerous changes to education policy – ending a weekend-long trek on foot from Kansas City to Topeka.

“More than 100 people massed inside the building to condemn the actions of Gov. Sam Brownback and lawmakers after the governor signed a bill into law last week during a private ceremony replacing the state’s school funding formula with a block grant system.
