driver's license

By Micah Tempel, Director, Suspended to Reinstated Project, KLS.

Instead, an inability to pay a traffic fine or missing a court date leads most Kansans to a suspended license, compounding their economic hardships by making it illegal for them to drive to work, to the grocery store, and to take their children to school.
