Kansas Lawmakers in Their Own Words: From ‘Dropping Little Turds’ to ‘A Terrible Mistake’
“I think that (defying the court) would be a terrible mistake. I think we have a constitutional obligation to provide for suitable education. The court has done its job in determining what that is. It’s our job to follow their orders.”

“I find it fantastical that the Senate President, on the last day at Sine Die, when we don’t have a balanced budget, and we don’t have a constitutional way of funding our schools, would bring this (transgender bathroom) resolution to the floor so we can debate about where transgender kids pee.”
— Sen. Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City
