County refunds nearly
$58,000 when company
no-shows on dust control

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
OVERLAND PARK So far the company that left more than 100 rural
Anderson County residents hanging
waiting for dust control applications
that never came is keeping mum.
The Anderson County Road
Department recently refunded nearly $58,000 in dust control payments
paid in by rural residents for dust
control application on their rural
gravel roads, but the question is still
out on why the deal with Scotwood
Industries in Overland Park went
bad.
Scotwood did not respond to

Linn County Commission
adopts full prohibition to

that the fireworks show was more
than an hour later than expected, and
when the skies did light up, the finale
seemed to be at the beginning. Even
so, a number of commenters on the
citys Facebook page said they had a
good time, even if it was late in coming.
Not sure what the troubles were
they were having, but well worth the
wait. Great show, Garnett, Ks., said

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
PLEASANTON Linn County
Commissioners last week affected sweeping land use regulations
dealing with controversial restrictions on both industrial wind and
solar installations, approving
a prohibition on new wind farm
installations altogether.
At a special meeting called to
discuss zoning regulations and
department budgets, commissioners voted unanimously to approve
a planning and zoning commission
recommendation setting place setback and other restrictions on solar
installations, but the prohibition
vote on wind turbine fields came
down to a vote of commissioners
Jason Hightower and Jim Johnson
in favor of prohibition with commissioner Danny Mccullough
against.
Linn County has been embroiled
in wind discussions since 2018
when a German-based developer
sought and was granted a special
use permit to place a wind test
tower near Mound City and began
to pursue leases with private landowners with the intent of developing a wind project near Mound
City. Commissioners adopted a
one-year moratorium on any wind

will be Thursday through
Saturday, July 13-15.
However, in addition to
the livestock barn and show
arena built by QSI several
years ago, visitors should also
visit the Community Building
where one can see flowers,
quilts and other sewing pieces, garden and crop exhibits,
photography, and numerous
other projects. Its all there
in a compact area, along with
the Ruritans and RACO food
stands, night show stage, and
other amenities close-by.
Kelley and Buddy Rowlett

ANDERSON COUNTY COMMISSION
Convene
Chairman Les McGhee called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Commission to order at 9:00 AM on
June 26, 2023 at the Anderson County
Commission Room. Attendance:
Leslie McGhee, Present: David
Pracht, Present: Anthony Mersman,
Present. The pledge of allegiance was
recited. Minutes from the previous
meeting were approved as presented.
Road & Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road & Bridge
Supervisor, met with the commission. Letters to individuals who paid
a deposit for dust control was sent
out last week regarding the failure of
Scotwood Industries LLC to show up
to lay the product and a refund check
was included. The company has failed
to contact the Road & Bridge department for application. Lester inquired
with KDOT about the Highway 31
project that Vance Brothers completed. The application was a chip seal
using trap rock. The cost is comparable to how the county lays chip
seal but the rock is smaller so it would
minimize loose rocks and would not
require a finishing layer.
Kansas Legal Services
Ty Wheeler, Managing Attorney,
met with the commission. He presented the requested 2024 budget
of $9.000 for Kansas Legal Services.
He gave an overview of what services
the organization provides to Anderson
County and what their case load was
in 2022.
Zoning
Tom Young, Zoning Director, met
with the commission. He presented a resolution for zone change.
Commissioner Pracht moved and
Commissioner Mersman seconded to
approve resolution 2023-19 approving
zone change application #ZC2023-02
(Muth Properties) to rezone 16.24
acres from A-1 agriculture district
to R-E residential estate district. All
voted yes. Discussion was held on
the solar regulations that the zoning board will be reviewing in July.
Beginning in 2024, Tom Young will
receive a salary of $24,000/year for
zoning, welda sewer, and sanitation.
The salary will be split between the
three funds. In 2023, Tom will receive
the allocated funds for sanitation of
$2,500 that will be split between the
remaining paychecks for work done in
2022 and 2023.

Commissioners would like to speak
with Department Heads who currently

of monies in 2020 and was not considered when the 2022 budget was

KDWP will
start draw for
non-resident
turkey permits
in 2024
KANSAS CITY, Kan. During
their June 22, 2023, public hearing, members of the
Kansas Wildlife and Parks
Commission approved staff
recommendations to initiate a
lottery draw system for distribution of non-resident turkey
permits set to begin in 2024.
The recommendation was
introduced as part of a larger
strategy by the Department to
reduce overall hunting pressure and turkey harvest in
Kansas in response to declining turkey populations nationwide.
In a 7-0 vote, Commissioners
passed amendments to K.A.R.
115-4-11 which will implement
an application period for
non-resident turkey hunters
to apply for a specific hunt
unit (Units 1, 2, 3, 5 or 6) in
early January thru mid-February. Similar to Kansas lottery
draw for non-resident deer permits, any leftover non-resident
turkey permits will be offered
on a first-come, first-served
basis.
Staff first recommended
to Commissioners a lottery
draw for non-resident turkey
permits in September 2022,
after which time it remained
a regular public meeting agenda item until voted on by the
Commission on June 22, 2023
the groups sixth meeting to
examine and discuss the recommendation.
The next Kansas Wildlife
and Parks Commission meeting will take place on August
17, 2023, in hybrid format at
Pittsburg State Universitys
Bicknell Center VIP Room,
Pittsburg.

OCTOBER 16, 1937 JUNE 30, 2023
Evelyn Louise Gillogly, age
85, of Garnett, KS, passed away
June 30th, 2023.
She was born October 16,
1937 in Welda, Kansas, and
was the daughter of Elmer and
Nancy Ruth (Sterling) Gillogly.
Evelyn attended Cedar Head
Country School through 8th
grade and attended high school
in Welda, graduating in 1955.
After graduation, she did
housework and babysat for two
years. During the summers she
worked in Weston, OR at a pea
cannery.
In 1957, Evelyn moved to
Garnett and worked at Palm
Dry Cleaner and Laundry for
six and a half years, then at the
59 Motel for seven years. She
then went to work in Ottawa,
KS at the H.D. Lee Sewing factory as a Production Coordinator
from 1970 until their closing
in 1988. She remained in the
same building, working five
years for a screen printing and
embroidery company until
they closed too.
In 1994, she went to work for
Anderson County Hospital in
housekeeping and laundry services for 13 years and retired in
2007.
Evelyns hobbies were sewing, making clothes for herself,
her daughter, and ironing for
others. She also enjoyed playing bingo and putting puzzles
together, especially while
drinking a Pepsi or Cherry

made her first quilt and got
hooked, making many quilts
for her family. She loved cooking dinners for her grandsons
and their friends. Evelyn also
enjoyed going to any sports
or school activities, especial-

Ag growth
summit set
August 17 in
Manhattan
MANHATTAN, Kansas Join
agriculture leaders from across
the state at the eighth annual Kansas Governors Summit
on Agricultural Growth on
Thursday, August 17, at the
Manhattan Conference Center
at the Hilton Garden Inn, 410 S.
3rd St. in Manhattan.
The 2023 Ag Growth Summit
will be held as an in-person
event, with an emphasis on
opportunities for discussion
and networking. This years
event will take a different format than in past years, with
a focus on broad topics that
affect the whole agriculture
community, rather than small
sessions separated by individual ag sectors. All farmers,
ranchers, agribusiness owners and industry professionals
are welcome at the Ag Growth
Summit if youre committed to working for agricultural
growth in Kansas, please join
us in this effort.
Workforce and water have
been identified as two major
areas of focus that have a significant impact on the potential for growth in Kansas agriculture, so guest speakers and
small group discussions during
the day will be directed toward
those two topics.
Attendees are also invited to
participate in a social event on
the evening of August 16, also
at the Manhattan Conference
Center.
its fair to say we plan to make
some changes in that direction.

As the song says, lifes about changing
Patty Loveless sang the
song, How Can I Help You Say
Good Bye. Contained within
the song are the lyrics, Lifes
about changing nothing ever
stays the same. In these few
words the writer describes life.
Jesus tells us in John 12:25,
The man who loves his life
will lose it, while the man who
hates his life in this world will
keep it for eternal life.
The songwriter is right on.
As we grow from childhood to
adults the changes seem slow
then life begins to speed up.
We seem to be in control then
as we age our control seems
less and less. This lack of control sometimes causes us to
make decisions that come back
to really hurt us. Life truly is
about changing. Some changes
are irreversible, aging, illness,
death of a spouse, and many

others. In the song the writer
progresses from a childhood
experience of losing a friend,
thru a divorce then finally the
death of her beloved mother all
the time struggling with life
changing events.
Many of lifes experiences
are pleasant and rewarding but
it is the bad experiences that
sting and hurt the worst and
unfortunately last through our
life.
It is these experiences that
Jesus refers to when he says.
we should hate this life.
The experiences we dont
seem to have an answer for.
We seldom if ever ask why
when we have a good experience but that is the phrase
we go to when we suffer a life
altering change. We try all
kinds of things to make ourselves feel better but the hurt
is too deep. We just cant love
anything in this life enough
that it covers all the hurt. The
point Jesus is making is if you
love this life you dont love
him. In John 14:15 Jesus says,
If you love me you will obey
what I command.
In the end one has to decide
who they are living for, themselves or Jesus. And as the
song says thats life changing.

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 11, 2023
Impeach Kelly for dereliction on SB 180
This time, its impeachable.
As if closing down the states businesses,
churches and schools for no reason, trying to
mandate useless masks on the populace and
throwing women under the bus in the name of
preference for sexual deviants in womens athletics isnt enough to disavow her oath of office,
now Kansas Governor Laura Kelly blatantly
defies the Womens Bill of Rights, duly passed
by the 2023 Kansas Legislature to protect women
and girls and ensure gender truth in official
state documents.
State legislators should do more than castigate her for violating the state constitution
and her role as set forth within it. They should
impeach her for dereliction of her official duty
and violation of her oath of office.
Her public announcement that she wont
direct the Kansas Department of Revenue to
require true-sex at birth statements on Kansas
drivers licenses as required by the Womens Bill
of Rights (SB 180) is evidence enough. Besides
her public statements, the banner at the top of
the KDOR web page is clear enough justification
for impeachment and her removal from office.
In the meantime the rest of us are left wondering whats next. Will Kalamity Kelly hold up
a liquor store and somehow claim Kansas laws
against armed robbery dont apply to her?
So much for Americas constitutional premise of being a nation of laws, not of men. In that
vein the lawsuit filed Friday by Kansas Attorney
General Kris Kobach is a good start but its not
enough the Kansas House should immediately
bring forward articles of impeachment.
Impeachment of the governor isnt new
ground in Kansas. The states first Governor,
Charles Robinson, was impeached in 1862 along
with the then state treasurer and state auditor for authorizing a big commission on bonds
sold by a third party with the intent of raising
funds to pay for the operation of the fledgling
Sunflower State.
Robinson found himself in the position of having to make a sweeter offer to sell those funding
instruments at the time, because try as he might
he couldnt find buyers for bonds to fund the new
state which investors viewed as barren plains
not to mention in the midst of a Civil War
without offering a whopper of an incentive. He
survived his impeachment trial in the Senate
after all the facts were considered.
Like her disastrous Covid policies, Kellys
look-for-another-Liberal-with-an-answer programming has her following the lead established
by other Democrats who think they can pick and
REVIEW COMMENTARY

choose what laws apply to them.
This time she proclaims a law she vetoed but
which Legislators overrode SB 180 which sets
down a scientific definition of male and female
(yes, the Legislature actually had to spend time
clarifying that), guarantees women their rights
to privacy against the trespass of men who say
theyre women, and requires ones true sex be
listed on his/her drivers license is a lesser law
thats somehow optional. Kelly thinks the text of
the law includes an but only if you feel like it
addendum at the end.
But thats how Liberals view law and morality nowadays, as evidenced by a joint letter
sent to Kansas school districts from the Kansas
National Education Association teachers union
and the ACLU, suggesting districts ignore the
Womens Bill of Rights. Why? Beyond readin,
writin and rithmetic, their educational priority
is for boys to use girls restrooms.
Even Liberal prosecutors are in on the act.
Douglas County prosecuting attorney Suzanne
Valdez has publicly said she wont prosecute
anyone under SB 180. So much for the rights of
Women in Lawrence and Douglas County.
Such blatant disregard for bona fide law indicates a bigger threat to Leftism, and for Kelly
and her ilk thats terrifying. The intersectional
coalition of leftist influencers sees their grasp
on government, institutions and culture slipping away. Mind blowing decisions by the U.S.
Supreme Court have shaken them to their core;
startling revelations even among some Lefties
that government and Big Tech shouldnt be
manipulating and censoring speech with which
they disagree has left them unmoored on seas
they are increasingly unable to rule. The world
they used to own is unraveling.
We should put another straw on that camels
back, and send Laura Kelly home. ###

What if Kansas hospitals, doctors published a price list?
Kansans are struggling with the high costs
of healthcare, at least in part because of a lack
of understanding about how much a procedure may actually cost. This lack of understanding makes it very hard for patients to
seek out the most cost-effective options. Let
alone for insurance plans to support policyholders trying to shop around a bit.
The Problems
Over the past 20 years, the price of hospital
services has increased by 200%; similarly, the
cost of medical services has grown by 120%.
Between 2016 and 2021, annual premiums
for employer based-insurance increased on
average by 22%. At the same time, the cost
of things like technology, clothing, and cars,
for instance, have all gone down. While modern medical innovation is a part of the cost
increase, the main culprit is the administrative mess that is the American healthcare
system. Just as in education, the more regulation on a product in 2020, national education spending was 6.05% and healthcare was
19.05% of the USs $21.04 trillion GDP the
harder it is to contain price increases.
The structure of most health insurance
plans disincentives care from non-network
providers, even if these providers have lower
costs. A 2015 study of knee replacements in 64
markets across the country found that costs
KANSAS COMMENTARY
GANON EVANS, KANSAS POLICY INSTITUTE
varied by 313%. In Tennessee, for instance,
the cost of a knee replacement varied by a
whopping 1600%. With some nuance, a knee
replacement at one surgeon is likely very similar to the same surgery at another office and
statistically, there is no correlation between
more expensive care and its quality.
Though trying to centralize care, networks
limit customer choices and put them into
predicaments where each treatment eats up
the deductible regardless of how much the
insurer pays. Speaking of which, patients
have no way of knowing the true cost of their
procedures and how much their insurer will
foot the bill, and will make choices without
regard for whether their insurer is covering
$100 or $1,000. The two options of narrow
networks with low options or wide networks
with higher premiums and out-of-pocket costs
are unideal.
Doctors face the blowback of this poor system too, with primary care physicians spending $100,000 each year just to do paperwork to
get paid. That itself creates another incentive
for care providers to promote out-of-pocket
payments to avoid the billions of dollars spent
annually dealing with insurers.
Patient Right to Save
One idea to get at the lack of transparency is a Patient Right to Save bill in Kansas,
which would require insurers to estimate
a patients out-of-pocket cost for treatments
from in-network providers. Similarly, all providers would be required to publish cash prices for care, which would then be collected and
posted to a database online where patients
could shop for services. This would be similar to existing CMS hospital cash disclosure
rules.
Insurers would also be required to give full
credit to out-of-network care if it was patients
could find options below the lowest in-network option. In particular, this would work as
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
No person in the United States shall, on the
ground of race, color, or national origin, be
excluded from participation in, be denied
the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving
Federal financial assistance.
Jackson spends a lot of time recounting the
countrys racial sins and then declares them
inescapable today. Even if this simplistic
account were true, she fails to establish why
racially biased college admissions are legal or
warranted.
She writes of the universal benefits of
considering race in this context. But college admission is zero sum –only so many
applicants get accepted, and if some are being
disadvantaged, they are obviously suffering a
harm.
In classic two-wrongs-make-a-right reasoning, she says that UNCs admission process
is fairer than it used to be when it excluded
Black people — as if past discrimination justifies current discrimination harming people
who had nothing to do with the prior injustices.
The admissions process, Jackson says,

Justice Jacksons abysmal affirmative action dissent
Justice Ketanji Brown Jacksons dissent in
the Supreme Courts affirmative action case
achieved instant legendary status in certain
quarters.
Vice President Kamala Harris called it
probably one of the most brilliant dissents
that any justice of the United States Supreme
Court has ever written.
Yes, Jackson is apparently right up there
with the likes Justice John Marshall Harlan,
the lone dissenter in the infamous Plessy v.
Ferguson decision upholding separate but
equal.
Ketanji Jackson took great umbrage at the
Court striking down race-based college admissions in the case involving the policies of
Harvard and the University of North Carolina
(she recused herself from the Harvard part of
the ruling).
Her much-praised handiwork, though,
hardly qualifies as a legal opinion. It reads
like a guest essay by anti-racist guru Ibram
X. Kendi in The New York Times.
With let-them-eat-cake obliviousness,
today, the majority pulls the ripcord and
announces, colorblindness for all by legal
fiat, she pronounces in what is supposed to
be a thunderous line.
There are several notable things about
this. One, the writing doesnt work. If you
are oblivious, you usually arent undertaking
acts that require focused effort, such as pulling a ripcord. The inapt metaphor aside, the
sneer quotes around colorblindness for all
are quite something coming from a Supreme
Court justice in the United States of America.
In making their case against racial preferences, the justices in majority invoke the 14th
Amendment and Title VI of the Civil Rights
Act of 1964. If Jackson were being consistent,
her sneering would extend to the Civil Rights
Act, for it, too, favors color-blindness for all:
Fourth of July weekend and camping spots
have been reserved for over a month in advance
at the South Lake for four campers. To reserve a
spot you have to use a campsite that is not user
friendly and the staff at city hall cannot and will
not make reservations for you. After spending
almost $200 when you get to your campsite you
realize the grass hasnt been mowed, not to
mention nothing has been trimmed. You have
three tables for five campsites and every water
hookup leaks. Is this the impression you really
want to make on visitors passing through our
town?
allows consideration of all factors material to
merit, adding in a parenthetical, including
race. She doesnt spell out which races she
considers especially meritorious, although
the policies she defends are meant to suppress
Asian Americans acceptances.
Asian Americans are, to use the woke
term, invisible to her, an expendable chit
in a grand morality play of black and white.
Theres no modulation in her views on race -no awareness that many Black people are from
immigrant families untouched by American
slavery, or that Asian Americans also have a
history of discrimination, or that some white
people have had a tougher upbringing than
some Black, or that people are individuals,
not racial archetypes.
Even if putting students from different
backgrounds together improves cognitive
abilities and critical thinking skills, reduces
prejudice, and better prepares students for
post-graduate life, as Jackson maintains,
theres no reason to conclude that race is the
only or most important element of diversity.
What has the child of Vietnamese immigrants done to be considered harmful to diversity and the education of other students?
In head-spinning logic, Jackson asserts
that ending discrimination in admissions
will delay the day that every American has
an equal opportunity to thrive, regardless
of race, and ignoring race makes it matter
more.
Discrimination is anti-discrimination. Bias
is fairness. 2+2=5.
Justice Harlans dissent in Plessy is unmistakable: Our Constitution is color-blind and
neither knows nor tolerates classes among
citizens.
Justice Jackson takes a different view.

HISTORY
Old cabin site yields more goodies
Im still working at the very
front of where the old cabin once
sat.
In fact this past week I discovered the remains of the old
limestone rock foundation. At
this point Im not too sure whether I will find anything where the
cabin actually was located.
If my memory is correct, back
when Kay and I owned this property in the 1960s, there was only
a crawl space beneath the cabin.
However, Im going to continue
to search under it and around its
perimeter.
Here are five more photos of

Presenting the 2023 Cornstock Scholarship to Reese Witherspoon is ACCF Board President Gina
Witherspoon and Board of Director Wes Skillman.
Witherspoon wins Cornstock 2023 scholarship
GARNETT Annually, the
Anderson County Corn Festival
awards a scholarship to a high
school student or students that
have actively volunteered with
the Anderson County Corn
Festival (aka Cornstock).
This years scholarship recipient is Reese Witherspoon.
In her application, Reece
states: The importance of volunteering is extremely significant in todays day and age.
Without it, we would simply
not have any of our big events
(like Cornstock). Volunteering
means a lot to me on many levels. Simply because you could
be volunteering for either
the biggest events around or
mowing someone elses lawn
because they cant. Not only
does volunteering show how
much you want to be active in
the community, but it helps
you make connections and life-
long friendships that will last.
Volunteering has brought me
out of my comfort zone and
made me a leader, not only
for my friends but for my 4-H
Club where I hold the office
of Vice President along with
holding the office position for
the 4-H Council as President.
I think of volunteering as a
selfless act for our community. Miss Witherspoon has also
been a volunteer elsewhere in
the community, helping with
the Carmelite Stars Valentine
Dinner, set up and tear down of
Square Fair, and helped with
the Garnett Fire Department
Open House, Square Fair
breakfast, and Chili and Soup
Supper.
Reeses family have been
very active volunteers in
organizing and hosting the
Cornstock Music Festival for
several years. Reese states,
I have been involved with
Cornstock since I was little.
The fifteen-member Board of
Directors commend Reeses
contributions over the years.
From helping with setup and
tear down of the event; from
putting up fencing and hanging
banners, to working the entertainments merchandise tents
or running errands. Reese has
been a valuable volunteer.
Reese Witherspoon is the
daughter of Adam and Gina
Witherspoon and is a 2023 graduate of Anderson County High
School. She plans to pursue the
study of veterinarian medicine
and will be attending Allen
County Community College
this fall.

Richmonds Rhodes Scholar exhibit debuts at this weeks fair
George E. Putnam (1887-1939)
is the subject of a new display
by the Richmond Museum
which will be unveiled at the
Community Building. during
the Richmond Fair July 13-15.
Putnam is the only Rhodes
Scholar from Franklin County
and one of only 72 from Kansas.
His parents owned large
parcels of land in Franklin and
Anderson County and the lumberyard in Richmond. He was
named a Rhodes Scholar in 1908
when he was enrolled at Yale

The new display was designed
by Taylor Winters, a KU grad,
however the research was done
by Dennis Peters when the
Museum opened in 2008, 100
years after Putnam was selected
for this prestigious honor. Those
named Rhodes Scholars study at
Oxford University in London.
There have been 3,578 Rhodes
Scholars from the United States.
Putnam is one of 36 to graduate
from the University of Kansas
and Kansas State University. All
other universities in the state
have had 36 combined, including some who were attending
schools out-of-state at the time.
project was approved by the
board earlier in the year after
a cost ceiling of $750,000 was
set. The track project was part
of a larger bond issue in May of
last year that would have built
new buildings or facility addition projects in each of the four
serviced communities. The
bond measure failed, but board
members reached a consensus
that the track project could be
completed using capital outlay
funds since the current district
track at Garnett Stadium is not
suitable for competition use.
The recent Independence Day
fireworks may be the last due to
an $800 financial loss suffered
by the sponsoring Garnett Area
Chamber of Commerce. Board
members of the organization
meet this week to discuss the
issue.

After a dispute in a wheat
field southwest of Welda, a man
was arrested for pulling a shotgun on a truck driver. The
dispute erupted after a local
farmer hired a custom harvester to work a field, cutting the
crop, but then refused to pay
the workers after the wheat
was loaded. Before the delivery to the elevator, the truck
driver refused to transport the

4-8 each day of the fair, July
13-15.
Open Doors is the result of a
question by lay leader Dennis
Peters who said in a Sunday
morning message some years
ago, What will happen if the
church isnt used? People have
had a good time bringing their
favorites and seeing what others show.

others including Maggie Moore,

variety of displays is expected.

finding no resolution the crop
was promptly dumped on the
ground; the action was followed
by the production of the firearm and threats were issued.
A split of the 4A classification
voted on by 4A Principals will
likely yield a better chance
of post-season success for
Anderson County High School.
Under the change, the 64
schools that make up the 4A
class would be divided in half,
into Division 1 and Division 2
for postseason and state competitions. The change will affect
the 2013 school year.

an in-network credit equal to
the amount of money that the
patient spends out-of-network.
These two components that
require simple disclosure and
matching lower costs could create incentives and accessible
opportunities for patients to
shop more for their treatments
and for insurance companies
to support them along the
way. Out-of-network options is
incredibly helpful for people
who need regular injections to
treat conditions like Crohns
disease, whose costs may differ by the tens of thousands.
On the other hand, small businesses trying to provide health
coverage would have more cost
estimates available to create
a plan that financially works
for them and their employees.
Transparency could lead to
patients choosing less expen-
sive treatment options, which
in turn create a less intensive
administrative burden on doctors to manage with insurance
companies.
Patient Right to Save isnt an
immediate fix, though. The
way that the deductibles would
work would have to be specially tailored so as to not add to
the existing regulatory burden
in the market. Healthcare providers spend $39 billion a year
on administrative activities
related to regulatory compliance: thats about $1,200 every
time someone enters a hospital. The average hospital dedicates 59 employees to comply
with the over 600 regulatory
requirements they face. Right
to Save policy would need to
be implemented in a way that
ultimately reduces the burden,
not add to it.
While some may look at the
current situation as a reason
for socialized healthcare, that
system has its own issues,
including, but not limited to:
Trillions of dollars in government spending and debt
annually
Less disposable income
Potentially longer wait times
for surgeries or basic care
Poor control of total healthcare costs
Unclear results towards
improving healthcare outcomes over other systems in
the long-run
The gaps in information in
healthcare create a system that
obfuscates prices and leads to
inefficiencies as patients arent
able to make the right choices
for their health and their wallet. Policies like a Right to Save
could help alleviate this issue,
but shouldnt become new regulatory burdens themselves.

of Rights, which among other
aspects requires true sex definitions on official documents.
Kelly vetoed the bill late in the
recently ended Kansas legislative session, but legislators
overrode her veto.
The Governor cannot pick
and choose which laws she
will enforce and which laws
she will ignore, Kobachs
complaint asserts. The law
expressly required that documents such as drivers licenses
reflect biological sex, i.e., sex
at birth, and not a persons chosen gender identity.
Kobach, a conservative
Republican, was defeated by
Kelly when he ran for office
in 2018, and was subsequently
elected AG in November 2022,
when Kelly was re-elected governor.
Kobach notes in the complaint the governor publicly
announced she will not comply
with the Womens Bill of Rights
and has instructed her subordinate agencies, including
the Department of Revenues
Division of Vehicles, to disregard it. Subsequent to Kellys
public statements, the KDOR
added a header to his website
that said The enactment of
Senate Bill 180 on July 1 will not
impact the longstanding procedures for obtaining, renewing,
and updating a Kansas drivers
license as they pertain to gender markers.
It is Kellys latest scrap over
transgender laws in Kansas
which Republicans have
sought to solidify along traditional definitions of sex according to established science and
culture. Kelly twice vetoed
Republican-driven legislation
to prevent biological men from
competing in girls high school
and womenn college sports in
Kansas before legislators successfully overrode her veto earlier this year to make the most
recent version of the measure
into law.
The new law establishes
sex along accepted scientific
principles and provides privacy protections for womens
restroom and locker rooms,
rape crisis centers, prisons
or detention facilities, etc.,
against encroachment by men
even though those men might
claim to identify as women.
Kobachs lawsuit seeks an
injunction which would force
the governor to follow the law.
At least one other liberal elected official, Douglas
County prosecutor Suzanne
Valdez, has said she will ignore
the law. She earlier in June she
said she was saddened by its
passage.
I am watching closely as
the City of Lawrence and other
jurisdictions dicuss this vague,
cruel and hate-fueled anti-trans
legislation, Valdez told WIBW
Channel 13. My offices prosecutorial resources will not
be used to prosecute anyone

Your family has been
attacked, never again to be the
same.
Now you have to choose
between lawand justice.
Jason Bennett is a suburban
dad who owns a court-reporting business, but one night,
his life takes a horrific turn.
He is driving his family home
after his daughters field hockey game when a pickup truck
begins tailgating them on a
dark stretch of road. Suddenly
two men jump from the pickup and pull guns on Jason,
demanding the car. A horrific
flash of violence changes his
life forever.
Later that awful night,
Jason and his family receive a
visit from the FBI. The agents
tell them that the carjackers
were members of a dangerous
drug-trafficking
organizationand now Jason and his
family are in their crosshairs.
The agents advise the
Bennetts to enter the witness
protection program right
away, and they have no choice
but to agree. But WITSEC was
designed to protect criminal informants,
not law-abiding
families. Taken
from all they
know, trapped in
an unfamiliar life,
the Bennetts begin
to fall apart at the
seams. Then Jason
learns a shocking truth
and realizes that he has
to take matters into his
own hands.
Sometimes justice is a
one-man show.

KDWP starts five-year review of Kansas species listed by federal sources as endangered or threatened
PRATT The Kansas Department of
Wildlife and Parks (KDWP) is conducting a five-year review of the lists
of Kansas species that are endangered, threatened or Species In Need
of Conservation (SINC).
Endangered is the most imperiled
category of the three, and species on
the SINC list are deemed to require
conservation measures to prevent
them from becoming threatened or
endangered. A five-year review is
required by the Kansas Nongame and
Endangered Species Conservation Act
of 1975. Any individual or group can
petition KDWP to propose an addition, deletion, or modification to the
current lists by providing pertinent
scientific information required within
the petition form.
KDWP relies on the Threatened and
Endangered Species Task Committee
to assist with the review process. The
task committee consists of seven mem-
bers representing various disciplines,
and include staff from state and federal agencies and state universities.
Species experts are consulted and all
available data is evaluated during the
full review.

So—it looks like the
Richmond Fair is going fullspeed ahead as it approaches
its 100th anniversary of consecutive fairs next year. When one
reads the fair book, most folks
are impressed by the number
of people who donate time and
effort to make the fair successful.
Several folks take their vacation during fair week and have
done so for years. With all this
work and cooperation, a good
fair is bound to be the result!
As someone reminisced, if
folks could have a fair for years
without electricity, using only
tents, no computers, no phone
for some years, and Heavens to
Betsy, no Facebook, surely we
can keep this going with all the
conveniences we have now.
