From The Newsroom: The Topeka Capital-Journal

Our state government reporters break down the recently passed Value Them Both Amendment and what it means to have abortion on the August 2022 ballot for Kansas.

The ballot for the Kansas State Board of Education is typically an overlooked position, but as 2020 demonstrated, the board occasionally plays a big role in setting the education agenda for the state. Board member Ann Mah talks to The Capital-Journal's education reporter Rafael Garcia about the issues she sees as priorities for the state board this coming year.

Capital-Journal Statehouse reporters Andrew Bahl and Titus Wu will be launching their new podcast on Feb. 1, but for the time being, they discuss their interview with Gov. Laura Kelly and the start of the 2021 Legislative Session.

This is how they did it.
