Help us make positive change in Senate District 23! #ksleg #sd23andme #winwithwendy #wendy4kansas https://t.co/UDxoWLC8nj

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Being inclusive and welcoming makes Kansas the vibrant, strong community it is. I hope all Kansans take time today to recognize #TransgenderVisibilityDay and reflect on how we can improve our state for all.

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

Not surprised that Olson voted against our public school students. Olson supports strangers checking your child’s genitals. #ksleg #notso #olatheproud

If you are a Democrat and can’t stand up for the most vulnerable students in our schools then you don’t deserve your seat. #LGBTQRightsArentNegotiable #Cowardly #ksleg

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

As horrible as this quote is, his full testimony is even worse. It is filled with homophobic remarks repeatedly referring to marriage as only being between a man and a woman. Shameful, but not surprising.

[Sherman Smith @sherman_news]

Rep. Mark Samsel, R-Wellsville, questions merits of criminalizing sexual battery between spouses: "I’m single, so I’m not the best person to speak to this. But when you do get married, what does that mean? And what implied consent are you giving?” #ksleg https://t.co/g5thxxpExe

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

This is how the Ks GOP is spending their time 🤦‍♀️ Holding onto their legacy of being completely out of touch and completely useless.

[Davis Hammet @Davis_Hammet]

The Kansas Senate is now debating a resolution that would declare President Trump’s COVID-19 response a “triumph of American ingenuity” and condemn Governor Kelly’s response.

The resolution doesn't have any powers. #ksleg

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

This is a petty, partisan action, and I wish I could say I was surprised, but I expect nothing more from the petty, partisans Republican hacks that were elected (and re-elected). Kansans deserve better than who they voted for. #ksleg

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

It’s a new day in America.

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

This would be funny if it wasn’t so scary. Someone who is making legislative decisions on science shouldn’t be this willfully ignorant. #sd23andme #ksleg

[Sherman Smith @sherman_news]

Olson giving a lengthy speech in support of Pyle's motion, arguing there are counties that don't need restrictions: "I wonder how many of the people who tested positive for COVID-19 really had the common cold" #ksleg

Great morning helping our community with the @JoCoYoungDems! 💙💙

[JoCo Young Democrats @JoCoYoungDems]

Had such a great time volunteering this morning @HarvestersORG! Thanks for everyone who joined us!

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

Last Jan I was in DC for a conference on making schools safe for all students. I was still in the early, exciting, pre-covid days of our campaign.

I won’t say our country is better than what we’ve seen today, history proves we aren’t. But we *can* and we *should* be. #dobetter

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

💙💪💙💪

[Brandon Woodard @Woodard4Kansas]

@staceyabrams I'm so excited to work with @Budetti4Kansas (SD 23) and @Knoell4KS (SD 9) to organize Olathe. As the only Democrat in the #ksleg Olathe delegation, I know our potential in JoCo rests in Olathe, because of Wendy and Stacey's work. Onward!

[Dinah Sykes @dinah_sykes]

It's extremely disappointing at a time of such difficulty and immense challenge for so many Americans, we have politicians like Derek Schmidt and Jeff Colyer pushing false conspiracies that are divisive and damaging to our democracy. (1/2) #ksleg

[Human Rights Campaign Rapid Response @HRC]

At least 37 transgender or gender non-conforming people have been killed this year, making 2020 the most deadly year on record. This #TransDayOfRemembrance, we must honor their lives by taking action to end this epidemic of violence. https://t.co/b9CFMBEk43

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

On #TransDayOfRemembrance, we say it loud. We say it clear. We leave no doubt.

Black Trans Lives Matter.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

One day, our children and grandchildren are going to look us in the eye and ask what we did in this moment.

And I want to be able to say, we did everything we could to fight for our country and their future. Go vote.

Will do, thanks for the quick response! Just received another one that looks like this...all seem to be college students.

[Wendy Budetti @Budetti4Kansas]

@ConnieSchmidt2 Can you help explain what these images mean? These voters filled out ballots and mailed them back.
