PACs skirt campaign finance limits:
It's well known in Kansas that Attorney General Phill Kline and the six-member conservative majority on the state school board attempted to evade the state’s open meetings act. The Feb. 8 meetings – where Kline told conservatives he supports placing stickers on Kansas Biology textbooks – were kept secret from board moderates and the public.
Six Kansas news organizations have filed suit against the board and the attorney general, and some legislators have asked the Shawnee prosecutor to open an investigation.
Less well known, until now, is the network of interlocking conservative political action committees that have been constructed to skirt Kansas campaign finance laws and channel money to conservatives on the board.Much more here:
