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. -

NEWSLETTERS KANSAS LEGISLATIVE INSIGHTS NEWSLETTER | FEBRUARY 22, 2019 After last week’s deadline for non-exempt committee bill introductions, the Legislature has more than 560 bills so far this session to debate, pass, reject, or simply ignore. The new bills cover a wide range of topics from allowing teenagers to carry concealed firearms, elimination of state income tax on Social Security benefits, creating a Kansas Aerospace Commission, increasing registration fees for electric and hybrid vehicles, legalization of medicinal marijuana, raising the minimum wage, raising the motor fuels tax by $.06, to imposing a criminal penalty on owners who allow livestock to run at large. The bill declaring the polka as the state’s official dance probably falls in the “simply ignore” category. House and Senate Committees were busy trying to complete their work before the House of Origin deadline next week. The House Tax Committee heard HB 2261 proposing to reduce the current 6.5 percent sales tax on food sales by one percent. The Committee also held two days of hearings on Senate Bill 22 proposing to decouple Kansas from the Federal Income Tax Code. The House Energy, Utilities and Telecommunications Committee held two days of hearings on HB 2273 proposing to establish the Wind Generation Permit and Property Protection Act. HB 2273 is seen as unfriendly to wind energy and faces strong opposition from the wind energy industry. The House Appropriations Committee approved SB 9 authorizing the $115 million repayment to the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (KPERS). SB 9 was debated on the House floor on Thursday and passed on Friday. -

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. -

Kansas Chamber PAC Endorsements
For More Information Contact: 785.357.6321 Jeff Glendening [email protected] Kansas Chamber PAC Endorsements Topeka, KS (June 28, 2010) – The Kansas Chamber PAC has released their endorsements forthe 2010 elections to the Kansas Legislature. “We are proud to endorse a group of candidates who demonstrate a pro-jobs approach to stimulating the Kansas economy and the personal leadership to form strong public policy,” said Kansas Chamber Interim President and CEO Kent Beisner. “These individuals are committed to reducing government spending and growing jobs in Kansas.” The Chamber PAC endorses exceptional lawmakers and candidates who support the tenets of free enterprise. The selection process focuses solely on the core business issues that impact the state’s economy. “Instead of cutting spending during these tough times, the legislature chose to grow the state budget by more than $200 million during the 2010 legislative session,” continued Beisner. “Kansans expect legislators to spend their money in a responsible manner, just like Kansas families and businesses must do.” “Kansas needs decision-makers in Topeka who understand that the government is funded by businesses and their employees,” concluded Beisner. The Kansas Chamber’s legislative agenda includes initiatives aimed at creating a more jobs friendly tax climate, containing healthcare costs, improving the legal climate, improving the workers compensation system and unemployment compensation system, and promoting a fair regulatory climate.
