Black lawmakers slam Dem gov for axing Underground Railroad project backed by Dem who defected on trans issue
Fox News
Kansas state Rep. Marvin Robinson is urging Democrat Gov. Laura Kelly to reverse course after she nixed funding to restore a portion of the Underground Railroad.
The project would have received $250,000 in the next state budget for drafting a state plan to develop and make restorations to the Quindaro Ruins in Kansas City, Kansas, which Robinson represents. Quindaro was a town and a station on the Underground Railroad that helped enslaved people escape to Canada. Kyle Morris covers politics for Fox News.

Robinson told Fox News Digital in an interview that Kelly's veto was "cruel."
