Bill Would Require Kansas Babies To Undergo Paternity Test
Via KMBC:
TOPEKA, Kan. — A Wichita state representative is sponsoring legislation that would require every baby born in the state to undergo a paternity test to identify the newborn’s father.
State Rep. Melody McCray Miller is a Democrat. She said the measure’s intended to help men who’ve been named as a child’s father, or who want to know if they are biological father of the infant.

Want to insult a woman who just gave birth? Tell her that you don’t care who she says fathered that sweet little dumpling. It’s time for a state-mandated paternity test.
Welcome to today’s edition of stupid laws proposed by state legislators! Today we’re traveling to Kansas, where Democrat Melody McCray Miller thinks every child born in the state needs to be tested. Every single one.
And if a mom refuses, the proposed law would give the courts leave to intervene, demanding that a child be tested anyway. In other words, hey mom, we know you’re married to this guy and you say you’ve never slept around on him. He believes you. But we don’t.
