Attorney General Derek Schmidt said there are many legal problems with how Kansas is operating during a state of emergency. So, he wants to prevent problems in future emergencies. Schmidt and Governor Laura Kelly have clashed multiple times during the coronavirus outbreak. He said that local officials can opt-out of the governor’s executive order on wearing masks and keeping distance in schools. In another instance, he differed with the governor on the ways executive orders could be enforced. He wants lawmakers to fix the wording in the law or the state could be hit with lawsuits.
