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. -

STUDY TOPIC The objective of this study committee is to generate discussion, input, and research to further child-centric education that makes students the top priority. This committee is to study the following, but would not be limited to (these topics): ● The Rose Standards set by the Kansas Supreme Court as the goal Kansas schools will meet; ● Best funding mechanism by formula or other criteria to ensure adequate Kansas taxpayer dollars are invested in the classroom; ● Definition of what comprises as a “suitable” education; ● Outcomes to ensure that students are well-prepared for their future endeavors; and ● Uniform accounting across all districts so best practices to achieve student success can be replicated. December 2015 2015 Special Committee on K-12 Student Success REPORT Conclusions and Recommendations General A new school funding mechanism should: ● Focus on each individual student; ● Include accountability and reporting measures to ensure aid is being distributed according to the needs of each individual student; and ● Provide for multi-year funding to provide budget stability to the State and USDs. Accountability and Assessments State Level ● The current state assessment testing approach should be reevaluated and revised as necessary to avoid “teaching to the test,” inconsistent standards of proficiency, untimely return of test results, and cumbersome technology requirements. -

Community Bankers Association of Kansas January 6, 2017
Community Bankers Association of Kansas Legislative Update January 6, 2017 Overview The 2017 session begins on Monday, January 9th; the Governor’s State of the State will occur on Tuesday, January 10th, and the Governor’s budget recommendations will be presented sometime later that week. The session should begin quickly with a mid-session break scheduled for February 25-March 6 and the regular session concludes on April 7th. The veto session begins May 1. A 90-day session should conclude on May 14th. There is much work to be done and this session will likely be the longest and most difficult in memory. New Leadership House of Representative In the House of Representatives, Democrats increased their numbers by twelve seats and a fair number of more conservative Republicans lost in the primary and general elections. The chamber has again elected a more conservative Speaker but the other leadership positions are fairly balanced between conservatives and moderate Republicans The 2017 House will have 85 Republicans and 40 Democrats, a change from the 2016 division of 97-28. Republicans: • House Speaker: Ron Ryckman Jr., (R-Olathe). • House Majority Leader: Rep. Don Hineman, (R-Dighton) • Assistant Majority Leader: Rep. Scott Schwab, (R-Olathe). • Assistant Majority Leader: Rep. Tom Phillips, (R-Manhattan). Democrats • Minority Leader: Rep. Jim Ward, (D-Wichita). • Assistant Minority: Leader: Rep. Stan Frownfelter, (D- Kansas City). Senate The Senate partisan split will be 31-9, with the Republican majority. The Democrat gain of one seat actually under-represents the amount of change in the Senate because fourteen incumbent conservative Republicans either chose not to run or were defeated. -
