With Dist 111 Rep @BarbWasinger nodding along! District 111 deserves better!

🚨🚨🚨#KSLeg HD8 Majority Leader Chris Croft in a leaked video explains why he will stop a great foster care bill!

He wants to discriminate against same sex couples that apply to be host families. Those are the knife fights he leads behind the scenes to stop a good bill.

@BarbWasinger #ExpandMedicaid

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Today, I toured @HaysMedical – a vital lifeline for those in Northwest Kansas. Kansas' rural hospitals are pillars of our communities. We must expand Medicaid to help our hospitals keep their doors open in both rural and urban areas across the state.

[Rui Xu @RuiXuKS]

There is a rumored tax plan floating around there that keeps the lower 2 income tax brackets the same and gives a tax break TOP THE TOP BRACKET.

This is absurd. If you want to make a cheaper plan, then cut money at the top, not the bottom. #ksleg

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Today, I joined a Hays Rotary Club meeting to discuss how my administration is focused on moving Kansas forward. We're investing in our communities — rural, suburban, and urban — to ensure a bright future for our state.

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Heather understands that when parents have access to health insurance, their kids are more likely to receive care, too. Let's finally expand Medicaid to help Kansas families afford essential services like checkups.

[Kyle Carlin @kyledcarlin]

Imagine lecturing schools about needing accountability when the K-12 Education Budget has failed to follow state law and fund special education adequately for over a decade. #ksed #ksleg

[Kansas Senate Democrats @kssenatedems]

Sen. @EthanCorson asks, Why can’t we hold a public vote on bills that have broad, bipartisan support – like eliminating taxes on social security income?

The answer: Republican leadership is holding tax relief for Kansas families hostage. #ksleg

[Scott Rothschild @srothschild1]

Contact your legislators & urge NO votes. House to vote on Sen. Sub SB 387, which underfunds SPED, hikes local school taxes & jeopardizes at risk funding. Senate to vote on SB 427, which destroys local control of school boards. #ksleg #ksed

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

My statement on today's #ksleg Medicaid expansion hearings.

[Kansas Senate Democrats @kssenatedems]

Absolutely packed room for the first Kansas Senate hearing on Medicaid expansion in 4 years.

Their message is clear: a majority of Kansans support Medicaid expansion. #ksleg

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Tomorrow, the #ksleg will hold the first public hearings on Medicaid expansion in 4 years. Kansans, make your voices heard and ask your legislator to support the Cutting Healthcare Costs for All Kansans Act. Together, we can build a healthier future for our state.

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Today in Liberal, I joined Senator @JerryMoran for the 2024 Ogallala Aquifer Summit. Our water crisis affects every Kansan. Through collective, coordinated action, we're tackling the crisis head-on.

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Today, I voted in the 2024 presidential primary. Although the nominees for the general election are already decided, it's crucial we do our civic duty and exercise the right to vote in each & every election. I encourage Kansans to show up to the polls and make their voices heard.

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

#ksleg-islators should listen to the 70% of Kansans — their constituents — who support Medicaid expansion. We must act immediately to protect our hospitals, expand affordable health care, and lower health care costs. There’s no reason to wait.

[Kansas Senate Democrats @kssenatedems]

Sen. @Dinah_Sykes breaks down the math on Medicaid Expansion ⬇️

“When it is costing the state millions to not expand access to care, there’s no excuse not to look at Medicaid expansion.” #ksleg

[Cindy Holscher @cindy4kansas]

Not sure if “let the children have water poisoned by lead” is a winning political message. #ksleg

[Kansas House Democrats @KSHouseDems]

HAPPENING NOW: Rally to expand Medicaid fills the second floor rotunda with people from across Kansas 👏

Over 70% of Kansans support expanding Medicaid. #ksleg

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Thousands of Kansans are working but don't have employer-based health insurance. These are many of the people who would benefit from Medicaid expansion. It's time to fill this gap and support Kansas' workers and economy.
