Claeys, Ken Corbet, Travis Couture-Lovelady, Michael Houser, Mark Hutton, Josh Powell, Allen Rothlisburg, Louis Ruiz, Ron Ryckman Jr., Annie Tietze, Brandon Whipple, Staff Members; Carol Bainum, David Fye, Reed Holwegner, Chuck Reimer, and Ken Wilke Dear Representatives, It's a real privilege to have the opportunity to speak at your committee meeting. I've never done this before so I'm sure I'll be nervous. I will try my best to speak from my heart about what I believe this Bill might lead to. I'm 58 years old and have been sober for almost 2 years. The urge to drink is something I'm not bothered with anymore, thank God, but I attend AA meetings in hopes of helping others in their recovery. We're all aware of the statistics pertaining to alcohol abuse. For me, they were just numbers on a page having no meaning until I started meeting some of those 'numbers' in person. Some men headed to prison terms, women who have been beaten, a teenage girl in a wheelchair, I was in one meeting watching a grown man cry over his broken family. Worst of all is the devastating effects these problems have on their children. At least when one parent dies there is a chance to move on.

  • Kansas Legislators Message of Support and “Call to Action”
    Kansas Legislators Message of Support and “Call to Action” We come together united as state legislators, republicans and democrats, state senators, and state representatives with this important message. We have reached a tipping point in the battle with COVID-19. If widespread community transmission continues to increase, our hospitals will be unable to meet the health care needs of Kansans across the state. We need people to change their behaviors and act fast to curb the spread because our status quo is not working and the implications are dire. This is not a COVID-19 crisis. This is a health care crisis. This holiday season, the greatest kindness you can give to your loved ones is doing your part to preserve their health. Wear your mask; wash your hands; stay home as much as possible; and keep your distance. Lives depend on it. As we enter the winter months, cases continue to rise and without action, this will continue. It is critical we reignite a sense of duty and ownership to do all we can to slow the spread of this virus to protect the health and safety of individuals and their loved ones. While we cannot change the hearts and minds of everyone, we each can take personal responsibility to make changes that will ultimately be lifesaving. We are united in our message: • While the news about vaccines gives us all hope, we must take steps NOW to bend the curve, curtail widespread community transmission and ultimately decrease hospitalizations so that care is available for all • We support the efforts across our region and Kansas to take additional steps to practice the pillars of infection prevention.

  • 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.
