Two defense attorneys for Kansas Republicans accused of ethics violations have accused the state's ethics commission of violating its open meetings law.
That ouster effort came less than six weeks after the commission subpoenaed at least seven Kansas Republican Party officials in February 2022, demanding that they turn over seven months' worth of communications in 2020 with more than 20 other people.
Some Republican lawmakers believe the commission is on a fishing expedition, and the Kansas House is considering a bill to overhaul campaign laws and reduce the commission's power over issues raised by Krieghauser, Ney and others. Several people who received the commission's subpoenas are asking a state district court judge to quash them. The commission report justifying the subpoenas listed transactions in 2020 involvingand House Speaker Dan Hawkins, both Wichita-area Republicans, before they had those offices.
Mark Skoglund, the commission's executive director, released the same documents Wednesday to The Associated Press and said in an email that the commission already had reported the email chain questioned by the two attorneys to Kagay, the local district attorney. Skoglund said the commission has"a persistent interest in transparency."Kobach’s office confirmed that it received the attorneys’ complaint electronically but said it could not comment further.
