TOPEKA – Governor Laura Kelly today vetoed House Bill 2635.
The following veto message is from Governor Kelly regarding her veto of House Bill 2635:
“The people of Kansas have made it clear, time and time again, that they want government to stay out of women’s private medical decisions. That means we shouldn’t be spending tax dollars trying to interfere with that very personal, very private, medical decision. That’s why I’m vetoing this bill.
“Therefore, pursuant to Article 2, Section 14(a) of the Constitution of the State of Kansas, I hereby veto House Bill 2635.”
Thank you Governor Kelly. I agree that Government needs to eliminate their involvement in individuals personal lives. Only the woman and her doctor should have any say over her health and wellbeing.
