KANSAS CITY, Mo. — In a vote of 72-50, the Kansas House of Representatives failed to override Gov. Laura Kelly's veto of legislation that would require school boards to adopt a "Parents' Bill of Rights."
The House would have needed a super majority, or 84 votes, in order to override the veto.
The Kansas Senate voted to override the veto Tuesday in a vote of 27-12.
Kelly vetoed the bill because she said it would be costly to Kansas schools and would create more division.
The House originally passed the legislation with a vote of 67-46.
