Lawyer who did work for Operation Rescue appointed to Board of Healing Arts (Kansas)
our Board of Healing Arts is the licensing board for physicians.

A national abortion rights group on Wednesday took aim at a lawyer named to the Kansas Board of Healing Arts because he has represented an anti-abortion group.

Trust Women PAC ripped into Gov. Sam Brownback’s appointment of Rick Macias to the healing arts board, which licenses and disciplines Kansas physicians. Macias, who was appointed Tuesday, has done legal work for Operation Rescue.

Troy Newman, president of Operation Rescue, said Macias was not an “activist by any stretch.” Newman described him as a “level-headed, well-rounded attorney.”

“Elections have consequences. Deal with it,” Newman said. “Now, Sam Brownback gets a chance to appoint who he wants to lead these organizations and staff these committees.”
