Kansas Governor Laura Kelly has vetoed a controversial anti-trans bathroom bill that aimed to impose restrictions on restroom access for transgender individuals in government buildings. In her statement, the governor highlighted the numerous and significant consequences that such legislation could have, emphasizing that bathroom usage should not be policed. Despite the veto, Republicans in the state legislature are reportedly considering an override. The bill faced criticism for being poorly drafted and financially burdensome, with local government leaders questioning its potential costs. Activists have also rallied against the bill, engaging in acts of ‘malicious compliance’ to demonstrate their opposition to the legislation.
