    NEWSLETTERS KANSAS LEGISLATIVE INSIGHTS NEWSLETTER | MARCH 15, 2019 TAX UPDATE The question of whether the Senate would concur or non-concur on SB 22 (decoupling from the federal income tax code) was finally answered Thursday evening. The Senate concurred on a vote of 24-16, sending the bill to the Governor’s desk where a veto is likely. It would take 27 votes to override the veto in the Senate. The House amendments reducing the sales tax on food and imposing an internet sales tax could potentially still be considered separately. MEDICAID FOCUS OF BUDGET DELIBERATIONS Both chambers are continuing work on their respective versions of the State budget. On Wednesday, the House Appropriations Committee discussed the Kansas Department of Health and Environment budget. The Committee removed $14.2 million in state funds and $409 million in the estimated matching of federal funds (currently, the federal government funds 90% and states provide 10% of the funding for Medicaid expansion). The Committee vote was 13-9 to remove the funding. The vote followed the 12-11 defeat of a motion to retain the potential expansion funding for healthcare for the poor. We expect the whole House to debate the issue of Medicaid expansion. On Thursday, the Senate Ways and Means Committee also removed $14.2 million from the Kansas Department of Health and Environment budget. Senate Majority Leader Jim Denning, R-Overland Park, moved to redirect the funding to the Hospital Provider Assessment Fund in order to provide funding for Senate Bill 225 amending the hospital provider assessment rate. The motion passed 7-6.

    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.

    A Legislative Report for Kansas Children’s Service League ! 2016 Legislative Session: Week Seven (February 22-23) ! ! Round ‘Em Up and Move ‘Em Out….Both the House and Senate left committee work behind this week to concentrate on moving bills across the hall for consideration by the other side of the Legislature. Tuesday, February 23, marked the last day a bill could be considered if it had not moved from its chamber of origin…unless it was assigned — or ever had been assigned — to an exempt committee (Appropriations, Ways & Means, Federal and State Affairs, House Taxation and Calendar). Bills in non- exempt committees and those from these same committees left below the line on General Orders are considered dead for this session; however, sometimes they have a way of sneaking into other bills in the form of an amendment. It is never really over until the sound of that last gavel. After two fairly intense days of work, the legislature has adjourned for their Turnaround break and will return to the Statehouse on !Wednesday, March 2. ! For Those Keeping Track….Here is a condensed version on the status of KCSL bills !we are watching… Those which are still considered active: Senate Bills: 159, 325, 367, 372, 393, 408, 410, 418, 463 ! House Bills: 2585, 2698 Those which are no longer under consideration*: Senate Bills: 315, 394 ! House Bills: 2451, 2556, 2589, 2600 * but could come up again in the form of an amendment into another, germane, active ! bill. ! YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!…The Senate Bill, SB 463, which would abolish the Kansas Endowment for Youth Fund, the Children’s Initiative Fund, the expanded lottery act revenues fund (ELARF), the state economic development initiatives fund and the state water plan fund and move this revenue to the state general fund AS WELL AS abolish the duties of the Kansas Children’s Cabinet, will have a hearing in Ways and Means on Tuesday, March 8, 10:30 a.m., Rm.

    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.

    Report of the Special Committee on K-12 Student Success to the 2016 Kansas Legislature

    2015 SPECIAL COMMITTEE Report of the Special Committee on K-12 Student Success to the 2016 Kansas Legislature CHAIRPERSON: Representative Ron Highland VICE-CHAIRPERSON: Senator Steve Abrams OTHER MEMBERS: Senators Tom Arpke, Molly Baumgardner, Jim Denning, Anthony Hensley, Ty Masterson, Laura Kelly (substitute), and Steve Fitzgerald (substitute); Representatives Tony Barton, Sue Boldra, Larry Campbell, Dennis Hedke, Jerry Lunn, Ron Ryckman, Jr., Ed Trimmer, Valdenia Winn, Joe Siewert (substitute), Ken Corbet (substitute), and Nancy Lusk (substitute). 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.
