Ken Rahjes, Member Rep. Bill Rhiley, Member Rep. Valdenia Winn, Member FROM: Eric W. Norris, State Librarian RE: Budget of the State Library of Kansas Thank you for allowing me to testify before the Higher Education Budget Committee on the State Library’s FY2022 budget. The challenge of the last ten months has been difficult for every agency, organization, and resident of Kansas, and has without a doubt made the task of planning for the upcoming fiscal year that much more challenging and important. At the onset of the pandemic early in March 2020, the State Library had the most critical financial obligations and a majority of our major contracts procured and covered. Sensing potential difficult financial times ahead for the state of Kansas, we made the decision to halt all but the absolute essential budgetary obligations. We ceased all spending beyond salaries, benefits, and the most minimum updates to online services. Though we did come in under budget, it affected the quality of service and online content we were able to provide to the residents of Kansas as we were in simple maintenance mode. The continued mission of the State Library of Kansas is to deliver the highest level of library service to all Kansas residents through direct and indirect services.

  • 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 | JANUARY 17, 2020 2020 LEGISLATURE OPENS The 2020 Legislature had a full agenda as both chambers gaveled into session on Monday afternoon. The session opened slowly with organizational matters, the State of the State Address by Gov. Laura Kelly, and introduction of pre-filed bills and interim proposals. On Thursday, the House Appropriations Committee and Senate Ways and Means Committee had a joint meeting as the Governor’s budget was unveiled. The state’s improving financial picture will make funding new programs like Medicaid expansion an option along with the potential of some tax cuts. The Medicaid expansion compromise agreement between Gov. Kelly and Senate Majority Leader Sen. Jim Denning will improve chances for passage in the Senate despite concerns and opposition by some Republican Senators. House Republican leaders are still opposed and likely to try blocking consideration on the House floor despite support for expansion by a majority of House members. The Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee is holding hearings on SB 252 (see our reference to SB 252 and 246 below). Proponents will be heard on Jan. 23- 24, and opponents will be heard on Jan. 27-28. STATE OF THE STATE ADDRESS On Wednesday, Jan. 14, Gov. Kelly delivered her second State of the State address. Her areas of emphasis included funding education and the need to expand Medicaid. She wants Kansas to become the 37th state to do so. Among other areas highlighted were the need to address a comprehensive transportation plan, fiscal stability, modest tax cuts in specific areas, and a continued need to improve the social safety net.

With this information, these key players can understand the real gaps and inefficiencies in the market and answer the Workforce Investment & Opportunity Act’s (WIOA) call to align their programs to meet employer demand. But there’s also an opportunity to challenge demand as well. In many cases, the strategies employers use to hire workers are inefficient and even self-defeating. Workforce agencies and educators can leverage this more specific awareness of demand to flag opportunities to make the job market work better for employers and workers alike. 2:00 p.m. ITC - Who We Are, What We Do, and the Skills We Need Now and in the Future Kevin Burke, Vice President of Human Resources and Chief Human Resources Officer, ITC Holdings, Inc., will discuss how ITC fits into the electricity transmission grid, how the transmission business works, the importance of veteran placement services in their control room, and the skills and education required in the energy field now and in the future.
