OVERLAND PARK, KAN. – In response to multiple reports of Attorney General Kris Kobach’s request to the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights to investigate several Kansas school districts for their policies on transgender students, Micah Kubic, ACLU of Kansas Executive Director, shared the following:
“We again remind Mr. Kobach that the Constitution specifically protects against government actors and their attacks on Americans – and that includes children in Kansas who happen to be transgender. Mr. Kobach’s latest letter ignores the real concerns of Kansans in order to latch onto this administration and cynically weaponize his office to push his extremist political agenda, disconnected from the law or the facts.”
