  • 2020 Trust Women Kansas Primary Election Voter Guide
    2020 Trust Women Kansas Primary Election Voter Guide Trust Women is a 501(c)3 organization and neither endorses nor opposes any candidate. In July we mailed a candidate questionnaire to each candidate running for office in the upcoming state and federal primary election, regardless of affiliation with any party or organization. The answers provided do not denote any affiliation or endorsement by Trust Women, nor does a candidate’s choice to participate in our questionnaire signify affiliation or endorsement. The endorsements we have included along with our questionnaire responses are those given by the anti-choice organization Kansans for Life and the pro-choice organization Planned Parenthood. Yes and No answers and any additional comments about the questions we asked candidates are included in this document. The voting record on issues of reproductive rights of each candidate already serving in public office is listed in this document as well. The voter guide itself is listed according to elected office and then numerically by district for each position. So, if you were looking for Kansas State Senator candidates in district 16, you would first look for the Kansas Senate section and follow down numerical order until you find district 16. Voter Guide Key Y: Yes N: No U: Undecided VRP: Voting record pro-choice VRA: Voting record anti-choice We hope you find the information below helpful. Kansas Candidate Survey These are the questions asked of the candidates running for office in Kansas. Each candidate had the opportunity to answer each question with a yes or no and provide further comment to explain their stance for each question.

They are here to listen to the concerns of the people; to work on solutions for these concerns; and to determine the best course for all. This is difficult because there are many avenues in which they can take. Help them to seek Your wisdom for the path that You deem best, as You know each and every individual in this state and You know what’s best for all of us. I pray this in Your Son’s Name, Amen.

  • Journal of the Senate
    614 JOURNAL OF THE SENATE Journal of the Senate FIFTY-EIGHTH DAY SENATE CHAMBER, TOPEKA, KANSAS Thursday, April 8, 2021, 10:00 a.m. The Senate was called to order by Vice President Rick Wilborn. The roll was called with 40 senators present. Invocation by Reverend Cecil T. Washington: Never, Never, Never Stop Praying! 1 Thessalonians 4:17 Heavenly Father, thank You for the blessed privilege of prayer! For prayer is the opportunity You give us to connect with You. And as Your children, to get guidance from You, in 1 Thessalonians 4:17, You ask us to pray without ceasing, to pray continually. Lord, we are such forgetful people. We spend a couple of minutes in some routine prayers. And as soon as the minute or two is over, we're done. And we turn our attention toward areas of concern, where Your guidance is really essential for making the right decisions. But where's the prayer? So, Lord, when the few moments of this prayer are behind us, remind us to stay dialed in to You. Remind us to keep our antennae up and tuned to Your frequency. As we hear all the various voices trying to get our ear, the main voice we need to hear is Yours. I pray Lord, that in the Name of Jesus, we never, never, never stop praying! Amen! The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Vice President Wilborn. INTRODUCTION OF BILLS AND CONCURRENT RESOLUTIONS The following bills were introduced and read by title: SB 312, AN ACT concerning elections; relating to bond law elections; time of election after notice; county election commissioners; eliminating the county residence requirement; county elections; ballots received by mail; obtaining missing signatures; repealing certain obsolete sections relating to the presidential preference primary; election-related contribution restrictions for certain corporations and stockholders; amending K.S.A.
