Truthout
If there’s one thing we’ve learned from abortion opponents, it’s that abortion rights, no matter how many times they are affirmed and supported by the electorate, are never a settled issue.
Voters in Kansas this August will decide the future of state supreme court judicial appointments.
Currently, Kansas Supreme Court justices are nominated by a commission that screens candidates and are then appointed by the governor.
Instead, it’s a naked attempt to insert partisanship into the judicial process and find a way around Kansas’s continued support for abortion rights.
Legal abortion is popular, and abortion opponents know that.
