John,
Last year during my State of the State address, I called on members of the Kansas legislature to put aside partisan differences and join forces to fight for our students, working families, and economy -- and we accomplished so much. The last twelve months were monumental for Kansas, take a look at just a few of the things we accomplished:
* We added 12,400 private-sector jobs, reaching new employment records and creating the lowest unemployment rate in 40 years;
* We fully funded our schools;
* We reinvested in public safety; and
* We stabilized our foster care system
We have so many reasons to be hopeful tonight. But make no mistake: one year of progress cannot erase a decade of damage from the previous administration. I'm so proud of everything we accomplished in 2019, but that doesn't mean we can become complacent in 2020.
I know we can join together again this year to focus on rebuilding our state where we need it most -- from expanding KanCare to developing a comprehensive transportation plan to rebuild our roads and bridges to leading the discussion on criminal justice reform.
But we can only make progress on these issues if we all work together. Add your name to join me in recommitting to the promise I made to Kansans one year ago: that together, we will build a better Kansas.
