MESSAGES FROM THE GOVERNOR

House Bill No. 2446

An Act concerning cities and counties; prohibiting the regulation of plastic and other containers designed for the consumption, transportation or protection of merchandise, food or beverages.

Message to the Legislature of the State of Kansas:

I believe in local control and that local officials should be held accountable by their constituents, stakeholders, and businesses. This bill lacks sufficient protection to ensure local units of government are able to play a meaningful role in decision making on issues impacting their communities.

Laura Kelly, Governor

Dated April 12, 2024.
