Kansas was founded as a free state. In this election, Kansans sent a clear message that they still belive in those freedoms. I'm glad that our citizens will remain free to make private medical decisions without political interference. #ksleg

If a #ksleg politican tells you they want to spend the session fighting "woke ideology", they're really saying they have no ideas to make life better for you and your family. I'll continue to focus on strong schools and infrastructure, lowering costs, and growing our economy.
I spent this evening knocking doors in my district and talking to constituents about the importance of voting NO on August 2. This gentleman, a lifelong Republican, explained to me that he is voting NO on August 2 to stop government overreach. I agree completely! #ksleg https://t.co/g3aaZf0nAa
I'll be voting to sustain Gov. Kelly's vetoes. That's it. That's the tweet. #ksleg
Derek Schmidt using his hands to show me just how big our state's economic development wins have been under Gov. Kelly. #ksleg https://t.co/q33DUzKgXd
As Valentine’s Day approaches, my wish for each of you is that you find a love as deep and as true, as passionate and everlasting, and as totally all-consuming as Kansas Republican leadership’s love of massive tax cuts for giant multinational corporations. #ksleg
Just finished a great #ksleg town hall sponsored by the JoCo Library and JoCo League of Women Voters. I'm confused why no JoCo Republicans will participate. If voter suppression, Brownback tax policy, and school vouchers are popular, why don't they want to discuss with voters?
I hope the #ksleg takes advantage of this opportunity to go back to square one and work in a bipartisan manner to create a map that reflects the input we received from Kansans, follows the committee's own guidelines, and respects communities of interest. https://t.co/1Eilke6OlY

Sad that voter suppression is the animating issue of Kansas Republicans. Instead of getting better ideas, they want to make it harder for minority, elderly, disabled, young, and rural voters to cast a ballot. I am strongly opposed. My remarks: https://t.co/dSUjkcgxl0 #ksleg
