Quick Glance: Kansas Governor Increases Veto Against Controversial Laws
- Kansas’ Democratic governor, Laura Kelly, vetoed proposed tax breaks for anti-abortion counseling centers and allowed restrictions on college diversity initiatives to become law without her signature.
- Kelly also rejected a bill to increase penalties for killing law enforcement dogs or horses, as well as two election measures influenced by baseless election conspiracies.
- The new law, effective July 1, prohibits state universities, community colleges, and technical schools from requiring statements on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs from applicants.
- Kelly’s vetoes on anti-abortion centers and voting rights issues have sparked political tension, with Republicans in Kansas showing intent to override her actions.

Quick Glance: Boeing Plans Acquisition of Spirit Aero and Delays Production Hikes
- Boeing is in talks to buy its former subsidiary Spirit AeroSystems and is delaying plans to increase 737 aircraft production due to a crisis triggered by a mid-air incident.
- Boeing is struggling with quality issues resulting from years of decentralization of production capacities and loss of experienced workers. Reintegrating Spirit AeroSystems could address some of these quality problems and give Boeing more manufacturing control.
- The US Federal Aviation Administration has prevented Boeing from increasing 737 MAX production, leading Boeing to postpone production increases until 2024 and 2025.
- Spirit AeroSystems is facing cash flow problems and quality issues with fuselages for Boeing's 737 narrowbody jets. The opportunity to acquire Spirit could help Boeing address these issues.
