A critical point that advocates for a KTRS funding lawsuit have not acknowledged is the fact that, even in the unlikely event that the plaintiffs of such a lawsuit were to succeed, it would still be up to the legislature to pass legislation to fix the problem. Consider school funding in Ohio. As you can see from this article, the Ohio State Supreme Court has ruled the state’s system of funding K-12 schools unconstitutional four consecutive times, but the Ohio legislature still has not chosen to fix the problem.
Ultimately, KTRS funding is a political/legislative problem that requires a political/legislative solution.
