John,
This morning marked the end of the 2020 legislative session in Kansas. There was a lot on the line, including a bipartisan Medicaid expansion bill that would have benefited up to 150,000 of Kansas’s most vulnerable residents.

So, what’s the silver lining? Every Senator listed above will be on the ballot this year, and each will have to answer why they refused to expand Kansans’ access to healthcare during a global health crisis.
We believe healthcare is a human right, and we’re dedicated to electing Democrats up and down the ballot in Kansas who will fight for our access to affordable, lifesaving services during and beyond COVID-19. Healthcare will be on the ballot in 2020 - can you chip in $20, $35, or $50 to elect representatives who will protect our healthcare this election year?
