Two interesting things are going to happen this week at the Statehouse.
Oh, the governor and legislators get sworn into office, and legislators are going to spend the first couple days meeting each other, and trading stories about their children and such, but that happens regularly.
The two things to watch? The Kansas Supreme Court and Democratic legislative leaders.
The high court? Its justices are going to be sitting in the House of Representatives Chamber Thursday night listening to the first gubernatorial State of the State message delivered a couple months after Gov. Sam Brownback campaigned against—and voted against, he says—the retention of two of its seven justices.
