Governor Brownback is under the impression that school finance decisions in favor of our children are against the “will of the people”. We strongly disagree and would like to point out that many of our legislators and some gubernatorial candidates are less than candid about their positions on funding schools when running for office.
Here’s the governor’s statement on the Gannon decision:
“The three-judge panel has once again violated its Constitutional authority with this ruling. It has now taken upon itself the powers specifically and clearly assigned to the legislative and executive branches of government. In doing so, it has replaced the judgment of Kansas voters with the judgment of unelected activist judges.”
