Two former governors: Party labels belong in elections, not on the Kansas Supreme Court

Trust in the U.S. judiciary is on the decline, and two former Kansas governors are speaking out against the politicization of state courts, specifically the Kansas Supreme Court. They argue that party labels on the court undermine public confidence and the perceived impartiality of the judiciary. This move to politicize courts further exacerbates the already eroding trust in judicial institutions, suggesting a broader trend that threatens the integrity of the justice system nationwide.
