Think tank proponents testifying, but not Kansans

This could generally be said about bills and policies not supporting Kansas public education in the Kansas legislature this year.

“‘I don’t see a Kansas version of Janus sitting here before us today telling us why we need to change the laws,’ Holland said. ‘I see a number of conservative think tanks funded by Koch Industries that tell us why we need to change the laws. So where are the Kansas workers today telling us we need to change the laws?’

“Trabert said constitutional rights protect KPI from disclosing its donors but that the organization is funded by hundreds of Kansas citizens.

“‘Mr. Trabert,’ Holland said, ‘your organization is also funded by Koch Industries and the Koch brothers.’”
