WICHITA, Kan. — Republican attorney general candidate Kris Kobach has unveiled a new strategy for removing abortion rights from the state constitution a month after Kansas voters affirmed those rights by a wide margin.
"This issue is not over," Kobach said Friday at a Wichita Pachyderm Club campaign appearance. "The fight for life is going to continue."
Kobach, former Kansas secretary of state, is calling on the GOP-dominated Legislature to put forward another ballot question that would amend the state's constitution. This time, it would not address abortion rights directly. Instead, it would ask voters whether Kansas Supreme Court justices should be selected by direct election.
