The Pitch has teamed up with Loud Light, a local political awareness organization, to inform individuals from underrepresented populations about the happenings at the Kansas Statehouse. They release weekly videos summarizing legislative activity while aiming to empower communities and impact decision-makers. This week, the video highlighted a bill removing the 3-day mail processing period for ballots, a proposed amendment to politicize the selection of Supreme Court Justices, an incident involving Republican Rep. Nick Hoheisel allegedly shouting at Democratic Rep. Ford Carr, and a bill by Kris Kobach targeting undocumented immigrants. The bill would deny public benefits and in-state college tuition rates to undocumented individuals, as well as allow police to jail them indefinitely for minor crimes. The video also mentioned upcoming hearings on various bills and constitutional amendments. If you want to stay informed and support Loud Light’s work, consider donating to their cause.
