A lot of public school critics are misrepresenting what the changes in state assessments mean. Here is a good explanation - Kansas State Board of Education approves new state assessment cut scores - Kansas State Department of Education https://t.co/uYlRFQdN4E
With the budget bill’s passage, Kansas nursing home residents are at risk. It removes staffing standards, putting seniors and staff in danger. No one should worry about their care as seniors. As governor, I’ll fight to protect them and make this right.
This administration will not be about governing. It will be 100% about audacious grifting and retribution for real or perceived slights. We are fucked. Not just never-Trumpers. All of us!

THIS! And for those who have chosen to run and their families, who have all had their lives under a microscope for the opportunity to serve their communities, thank you, too. It's brave,it's hard, but running is Democracy in action. Good luck to pro-democracy candidates tomorrow!
MAGA wants to eliminate the U.S. Department of Education & dissolve local school boards. We need pro-public education legislators to protect public $ for public schools & stop Project 2025. The Heritage Foundation clearly already has allies leading the #ksleg GOP. #Election2024
As a very inspiring woman once said: "when someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time."
I wish I could say this was suprising, but it is not. This is why we MUST break the GOP supermajority to prevent these extreme ideas. #ksleg
Rep. Chris Croft is no friend of public education despite what he says while campaigning! This leaked Zoom clip at the 49 second mark is informative.

Here's my opponent laughing with Rep. Chris Croft (of south OP) about how large their flat tax plan is.
More than $3 Billion - while raising taxes on lower income taxpayers - is not funny.
Election Day is Tuesday. Actions have consequences.

Voters in KS House District 8, Chris Croft sez he’s “excited” to dissolve locally elected school boards. Know what happens then? Neighbor district board (who you didn’t vote for) decides which of your schools will stay open & your tax bill. Croft is on the ballot #ksleg#ksed
@CroftForKansas used #ksleg staffer to organize the @1776ProjectPac endorsed, @Moms4Liberty supported @bvschools BOE slate that voters OVERWHELMINGLY REJECTED in '23. Backup plan? To "dissolve them." @KSGOP platform lauds local control, Croft will overthrow it. Vote Pam Shernuk!
The purposeful, intentional way to defund public education. The heart and sole of rural communities in Kansas and the nation. It’s not too late. Vote for candidates that value your teachers, All students and communities.
VOTE- #ksleg#ksde
