This is a huge win for families, child care providers, and anyone who buys groceries in Kansas!

[Governor Laura Kelly @GovLauraKelly]

Today we axed the food tax in Kansas. This is a huge win for our state and, once fully implemented, will save Kansas families hundreds of dollars a year.🪓

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

@HealthFundDavid @GoSTL Congratulations! That’s awesome!

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

Parents can't afford to pay more for child care, and providers can't afford to make less. I'll explain this dynamic tonight on @BallotsBrews. Listen until the end to learn what the #ksleg can do to help make child care more affordable for Kansas families.

[Ballots & Brews @BallotsBrews]

We've got just the thing for your Snow Day- a new episode tonight at 8 pm!

We put Kerrice Mapes, Editor/Publisher of @seveneighfive to the test with beer trivia!

We'll also recap the craziness in local gov and #KSleg, plus we'll chat with @john_c_wilson from @KansasAction!

Hearing #ksleg express concern for getting folks back to work. About 7% of KS households reported not working due to lack of child care. That’s 80,000🏠s. Where is the urgency to address this crisis for parents, especially women who often leave workforce to care for children?

@JoshuaSvaty Given your prior tweet about agricultural tech and this tweet about Uber, now seems like a good time to share my idea: MOOber. It's a milk delivery service for local dairy farmers. Just be share to share the massive profits you'll make from this with me.

The #BuildBackBetterAct would save KS parents thousands of dollars in #childcare expenses each year. It will raise salaries for early childhood educators & provide stability across care settings--centers, homes, faith-based programs, schools & Head Starts.

@JoshuaSvaty Same. House lights went up last weekend. Tree is up today, and Feliz Navidad has already played 3 times this morning.

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

Ending the state sales tax on food is a great idea we can finally afford. It wouldn't be possible w/o Democrats & Republicans working together in 2017 to put KS on the road to financial recovery. Let's bring back that bipartisanship to pass this tax cut for all Kansans. #ksleg

[KAC @KansasAction]

Kansans have experienced one of the highest food sales taxes for years. #ksleg must join @GovLauraKelly's proposal to eliminate the state-level food sales tax to put food back on the tables of Kansas families. #axethefoodtax

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

We’re standing on the edge of a transformational moment for children. With a single vote from the U.S. Congress, we could more than halve childhood poverty in this state and set up tens of thousands of children for lifetimes of success. #ChildTaxCredit https://t.co/zLormJ1oX9

@ksheadstart @ProjectEagleKC What a stellar pick! In addition to her rich professional experience in early care and education, @JenniferAdhima will bring kindness, humor, and passion for advocacy to her new role as ED of @ksheadstart.

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

@KansasAction Some groups are calling for an end to federal unemployment benefits as a way to encourage Kansans to work. This would do 0️⃣ to remove the biggest barriers faced by workers, such as the lack of affordable child care and a minimum wage that doesn’t meet the basic cost of living.

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

@JoshuaSvaty @TomCox4KS I will always stand up for good puns. Always.

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

The American Rescue Plan is a historic opportunity for KS to invest in a just economic recovery that could leave our communities better off than they were before. https://t.co/ImUJniSOvj via @kansasreflector

SB55 targets a small number of children & their families to score ideological points. The lives and worth of trans youth should not be up for debate. This kind of legislative harassment is wrong, the bill is despicable, & it should not become law. #ksleg🏳️‍⚧️

[John Wilson @john_c_wilson]

Factors that determine at-risk are often beyond the control of the school. Poverty, trauma, poor health, & racism are among the risk factors kids face as they learn. HB2119 does 0⃣ to address these. Sadly the #ksleg is ignoring the bills that would actually improve the situation.

A bipartisan group of lawmakers has formed to promote and model civility in the #ksleg. I think they need more members. Can you take 5 min to write/call your representative & senator, and ask them to get involved if they aren't already? Find them at https://t.co/6oSBShLnWr

[KAC @KansasAction]

Today in @CJOnline and @Gannett newspapers across the state, KAC President @john_c_wilson notes a troubling change in tone at the #ksleg this session. Kansans deserve better. https://t.co/f1320hXVLC

@kprkoranda I found that those “five minute install” fans never took less than an hour when I was installing them in a house built in the 1920s.
