Marriage licenses would require both parties to be at least 18

Marriage-license clerks and judges would have to refuse a license for a marriage involving anyone under 18. The rule would cover every person seeking a Kansas marriage license, regardless of parental, guardian, or judge consent. The proposal says it would eliminate exceptions for people under 18, including consent by a parent, guardian, or judge. This requirement would apply only if the measure were enacted. If enacted, the measure would take effect after it is published in the statute book.
