  • 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.

    MAY 7, 2021 1259 Journal of the Senate SIXTY-FOURTH DAY SENATE CHAMBER, TOPEKA, KANSAS Friday, May 7, 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: To God Be the Glory, In Song! Regardless of his own power and fame, King David wrote this song of praise, that God's people may well praise Him! In Psalm 8:1-2, these are the words he wrote... “I will give thanks to the Lord with all my heart; I will recount all Your wonders; I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing praise to Your name, O Most High.” Heavenly Father, You inspired another song writer, Andre Crouch, to write a song of praise for today. And Lord, may the spirit of this melody bless Your heart and the heart of Your people! (The following words were sung by Reverend Washington.) How can I say thanks for the things You've done for me Things so undeserved, yet you gave to prove your love to me The voices of a million angels could not express my gratitude All that I am and ever hope to be, I owe it all to Thee To God be the glory. To God be the glory. To God be the glory For the things You have done With Your blood, you have saved me With Your power, You have raised me To God be the glory, for the things You have done Just let me live my life, and let it be pleasing, Lord to Thee And should I gain any praise, let it go to Calvary With Your blood, You have saved me With Your power, You have raised me To God be the glory, for the things You have done.
