A once-in-a-decade constitutional responsibility must be treated with great care. The #ksleg owes it to current and future Kansas voters to be good stewards of this process, and it’s clear the Ad Astra 2 map falls short. 🧵
.@GovLauraKelly's veto provides us an opportunity to reflect on our failures and recommit ourselves to our professed principles of unprecedented transparency and accountability.
It is mathematically and politically feasible to draw a map that adheres to our guidelines while maintaining the strength of our communities’ voices – especially our communities of color.
I know that I have colleagues across the aisle who agree that this map is not right for Kansas, and I hope they’ll join me in working to stay out of the courts by coming together to draw a fair, legal map. #ksleg
