Laura Kelly Failed to Secure Jobs or Pay Commitment from Panasonic

(TOPEKA, Kan.) – Governor Laura Kelly failed to secure the thousands of jobs she promised Kansans ([link removed]) through the Panasonic plant agreement. Not only was she unable to secure jobs but she also did not ensure minimum wage or salary standards, a critical component of any economic incentive package.

Nathan Jensen, a professor at the University of Texas-Austin who studies economic development incentives told the Kansas City Star ([link removed]) : "My jar is dropping that there aren't wage and labor standards. That is economic development 101. That is shocking."

"Laura Kelly gave over $800 million in taxpayer-funded incentives in a secret deal to a foreign corporation without even getting them to guarantee a single job in Kansas," said Shannon Pahls, KSGOP Executive Director. "This is just the latest example of the incompetence and desperation of election-year Laura Kelly. Come November, Kansans will elect Derek Schmidt who has the strength and common sense to make a deal that will benefit Kansas workers and their families."
