Kansas Legislature Website Problems

Being an intelligent person in Kansas is hard these days. I’m constantly teased by peers over the backward nature of my state’s government.

For comparison purposes here is what the site looks like in Safari and Firefox:

Kansas can’t seem to do anything right these days!
