The 2026 Session So Far

January 12 was my first day as your state senator. The Chief Justice swore me in, and I got to work.

Here's where I'm focused:

Property taxes. Multiple bills in play. I'm pushing for real relief that reaches working families - not just corporations.

Education funding. 68 education bills carried over from last session. Special education remains severely underfunded. I'm advocating for consistent, predictable funding that doesn't leave our teachers scrambling.

Healthcare access. Medicaid expansion continues to be blocked. I won't stop fighting for it. 150,000 Kansans deserve better than political games with their health.

Child care. The new Kansas Office of Early Childhood consolidates our fragmented system under one agency. That's progress. But I'm watching closely to make sure safety standards for providers don't get weakened in the process.

I serve on the Financial Institutions and Insurance Committee (as Ranking Minority Member), the Commerce Committee, and the Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee. If any of these issues touch your life, I want to hear from you.
