a moral obligation

Hey John, It's time to stop playing political games with the lives of Kansans. That's why, earlier this week, Laura and Senate Majority Leader Jim Denning held two events in Wichita to share their plan to expand Medicaid, otherwise known as KanCare, across the state. This bipartisan plan is pra…

it's time to end the political games

Hey John, At the beginning of the 2020 Kansas legislative session, Laura announced a bipartisan compromise to expand KanCare, our state’s Medicaid program, while lowering health insurance premiums for Kansas families. It looked like state legislators from both sides of the aisle were finally go…
