City News In Kansas City

Truly amazing. Mayor Mark Funkhouser says he doesn't support an ordinance that limit where volunteers can go and what they can do. He believes the proposal, co-sponsored by nine of the city's 12 council members, targets him. Both sides met to discuss it on Wednesday. His wife, Gloria Squitiro, is a volunteer and works in his office. A lawsuit has been filed against her accusing her of racial and sexual harassment.

He vetoed the ordinance which is apparently unprecedented. Be interesting how the city council reacts.
