Say a prayer for law enforcement officers across the state as they mourn the loss of a hero in Overland Park tonight. #ksleg

That kind of response time is a good reason to own a gun. #ksleg https://t.co/U9ZrUy30jU

Four more troopers resigned this month alone. We're nine days in. The Highway Patrol is falling apart and Laura Kelly remains silent. When the legislature convenes in January the KHP will be the subject of extensive hearings. We will fix it if Laura Kelly refuses to act. #ksleg https://t.co/YHihvQ22Sd

Your daily reminder that the excuses offered by the Kansas Highway Patrol for dismal recruiting are a steaming pile of BS. Here's Oklahoma's graduating class with over seven times the graduates as ours. Congrats Oklahoma! #ksleg https://t.co/RthuEmMEGg

Tell me again why the AG <U+2014> the top law enforcement officer in the state <U+2014> shouldn<U+2019>t appoint the head of the KHP? <U+201C>It<U+2019>s hard to see how Kobach could make a better choice<U+2026> It<U+2019>d be difficult to question Mattivi<U+2019>s law-enforcement credentials.<U+201D> #ksleg https://t.co/iEKBXjGlLq

Troopers continue to flee Laura Kelly's Highway Patrol and the replacement rate at the academy can be described as pathetic at best. Four more years of a public safety debacle is unacceptable. Expect a plan from the #ksleg that significantly alters how this agency is led. https://t.co/YHihvPJTE5

Kris Kobach is ready day one to attack the fentanyl crisis and fight back against consumer fraud. Kansans have an Attorney General who will defend and enforce our laws, whether he agrees with them or not. #ksleg https://t.co/8Vrisfj0UZ

What a shitshow Herman Jones has made of the state's premier law enforcement agency. <U+0001F921><U+0001F45F> #ksleg

Laura Kelly and her KHP continue to parrot the line that it is sooooo difficult to recruit. Other law enforcement agencies that pay less than KHP continue to see record recruiting classes. The KHP is having problems because the leaders at the top are not held accountable. #ksleg https://t.co/IlYUCVPfPp https://t.co/TkStDfoIU1

Six. Six Kansas Highway Patrol troopers have resigned or retired so far this month. That<U+2019>s an entire six month recruiting class gone before the 15th of this month. We<U+2019>re averaging one exit every two days. Kansans are less safe every day this drags on. #ksleg
