Laura's plans for tax reform are under attack

John, While Kansas continues to recover from the failed tax experiment of the prior administration, there’s a need for tax reform designed with adequacy, equity, and stability in mind. That's why this week Laura established the Governor’s Council on Tax Reform. This bipartisan, qualified group o…

While you're enjoying the day off

John, Happy Labor Day! As you're spending time with your friends and family during this long weekend, I want to take the time to remind all of us why we celebrate today. The hard-working men and women in our labor community have the right priorities in mind: they're committed to building a str…

The path to hitting our goal

John -- Laura just asked for an update on our August fundraising numbers. Right now, we're only $2,328 away from hitting our August end-of-month fundraising goal, and I want to make sure I can give Laura a solid plan to hit our goal. If 23 people from Washington chip in $5 or more right now, we'…

The governor Kansans deserve

John, In 2018, we came together to fight to rebuild our state after eight disastrous years of Sam Brownback and Jeff Colyer's failed administration. Together, Kansans from across the state made phone calls, knocked on doors, and sent text messages to spread Laura Kelly's message of change to eve…

We've come so far, but we still have work to do

John, Nearly 100 years ago, the 19th Amendment was adopted to the U.S. Constitution finally granting women the right to vote. Even with all of our progress over the last 99 years, we still have so much work to do. Women across the state still make less than their male co-workers, women's repro…

My promise to Kansans:

John, When I was elected to serve as your governor last fall, I made a promise to put you first -- to fight for education, equality, and opportunity for all. Since then, my administration has been focused on how we can improve the lives of everyday Kansans. Here's what we've accomplished so far…

Why your support is so important

John, We're asking you to donate $5 or more to help Laura Kelly continue fighting for Kansas, but first we want you to know why it's so important. In her first few months as governor, Laura has fought for our public schools, stood with our LGBTQ+ community, and strengthened our foster care syst…

Ending the Kansas-Missouri border war

John, Earlier this week, Laura stood with Missouri Governor Mike Parson and signed a truce ending the longstanding economic border war between our two states. And yesterday, Laura's op-ed ran in the Kansas City Star about the decision to come to this truce. Take a moment to read Laura's op-ed …

Demofest: Democrats always know how to turn out

John, I want to thank the Kansas Democratic Party for putting together another great Demofest. It was a great turnout, and Kansas Democrats are gearing up to continue to grow and strengthen our party. In 2018, you elected me to be your governor. You all helped so much in this election. And Kans…

We must stand together

John, Right now, we’re in the middle of a public health crisis. This past weekend, tragedy struck El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio, as two deadly mass shootings happened within 24 hours of each other. No one should be scared to see a movie, go shopping, or attend a church service. We owe it to e…

We can’t take anything for granted

John, I know you’re busy so I’m going to keep this short. I just got off the phone with Laura and she asked for an update on our July end-of-month fundraising goal. And I had to tell her we’re still about $5,285 short of hitting our $10,000 goal. Laura is hard at work fighting for Kansans acro…

Reflecting on the past few months

John, As we continue to reflect on Laura’s first few months as governor, it’s clear Kansas remains on the road to recovery after the Brownback-Colyer administration. Laura worked tirelessly with Kansas legislators to increase funding for our schools, balance our state’s budget, and increase tran…

There’s still time to take action

John, We’re about to go over the results of our Kansas priorities survey with Laura, and we noticed that you haven’t taken action yet. Filling out this survey and telling Laura what issues matter most to you right now is how she’s going to plan her agenda to move Kansas forward. Whether you want …

[SURVEY] Tell us what you think

John, As governor, Laura is committed to standing up for families across Kansas. But in order to continue to work for Kansans, she needs to know what issues matter most to you right now. That’s why we’re asking people just like you to participate in our 2019 Kansas priorities survey. Laura want…

Eyes on the future

John, Since her inauguration, Laura has been working tirelessly to move Kansas forward and clean up the mess left behind by the previous administration. And after the legislative session ended, I remain more hopeful than ever about our future. Under Laura’s leadership, we have prioritized our s…

As we look ahead

John, In just Laura’s first year as governor we have seen a lot of progress -- an increase in school funding, a balanced state budget, and economic recovery in the wake of Sam Brownback’s failed tax experiment. Now, as we look ahead to Laura’s second legislative session we have to make sure we …

Our economy is growing

John, Two years ago, the Kansas State Legislature came together to vetoed the failed Brownback-Colyer tax experiment, and now our economy is slowly turning itself around. We were recently named the most improved state on CNBC’s America’s Top State for Businesses list -- we jumped up 16 places fr…

Coming up short

    The clock is winding down on the month, John, and that means we only have a few more hours to hit our June end-of-month fundraising goal. But after crunching the numbers with my team, we’re still coming up $3,297 short on our $25,000 goal. Before midnight tonight, can I count on you to step …

I just had to give Laura some not great news

John, Laura just asked for an update on our fundraising numbers, and unfortunately, I had to tell her we’re still more than $12,000 from hitting our goal. With only a one more day until the month ends, it’s all hands on deck to hit this goal so we can continue to spread Laura’s message across t…

We accomplished a lot, but I know we can keep going:

I’m proud to call Kansas my home, and I’m proud to serve as your governor, John. But I’m even more proud of the work we’ve already accomplished together during my first five months in office. During this year’s legislative session, I was proud to work with leaders from both sides of the aisle to…
