House Insurance Comm hearing on SB32, allowing @KSFarmBureau to issue healthcare benefits. I submitted proponent testimony. Plethora of misinformation in the media! Terry Holdren said it best: "the opponents have somehow started to criticize a plan that has yet to be developed"!

"Many people my age & my friends aren't getting to come home to their own family farm's operation & it's simply because they can't afford it." A big reason they can't afford it is b/c of the rising costs of health care. Join @jaxlef14 in supporting SB 32. #kshealthplans #ksleg
