Prayer by Chaplain Brubaker: Gracious Loving Father, Thank You for your faithfulness once again for another session. For those days when the energy of our leaders seemed depleted, You provided Your life-giving spirit. When the heat of debate and discussion increased, You delivered calm and cool heads to prevail. When there was uncertainty and hopelessness, You gave hope and promise. When there seemed to be no good solutions, You afforded them Your wisdom and guidance. When they became weary, You bestowed strength. In these last few hours or days, I ask that You continue to show Your faithfulness, extend your spirit and renewal, and provide Your peace, presence, and provision. In Christ’s Name I pray, Amen. The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Rep. Eplee.

We ask for your blessing on those gathered here as they seek to craft laws and enact policies that bring good governance for this part of your creation. But we confess that we are a stiff-necked people, O God, eager to be right rather than righteous. Help us to bend our necks to the needs of our people.

  • 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.

    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.
