Today, Senate Democrats introduced a policy package to make life more affordable for Kansans. We will continue to pressure the supermajority into taking up these bills. It’s time our government focused on something other than culture wars and special interests. #ksleg

Sen. @ethancorson introduced Senate Bill 218 to raise the minimum wage in Kansas to $15 an hour.  Raising the minimum wage will put more money in people’s pockets. #ksleg

"The most important thing we can do for minimum wage workers is actually raise the minimum wage — which is embarrassingly low in Kansas." Read more about Kansas Democrats' plan to raise the minimum wage to $15 and put more money in people’s pockets⬇️

70% of voucher users already attend private school. This isn't "school choice." It's a subsidy for parents who already send their kids to private schools. Vouchers are wrong for Kansas. #ksleg

Today, Senate Republicans passed a bill banning the mail-in ballot grace period, which would make it harder for veterans, elderly, and disabled Kansans to vote.  Sen. Faust-Goudeau stands up for the rights of ALL Kansans to have their voices heard at the ballot box. #ksleg

"The first bill that the Kansas Legislature sent to Gov. Laura Kelly this year didn’t lower property taxes. It instead targets LGBTQ+ children for harassment and abuse." It's time for Republican politicians to stop with the culture war distractions.

"Public schools are the heart of Kansas communities. Private school vouchers would weaken that heart." Kansans know: Private school vouchers would hurt the majority of Kansas kids who attend public school. Vouchers are wrong for Kansas.

This week, the 2025 Kansas Teacher of the Year and the Kansas Regional Teachers of the Year were honored by senators representing their home districts. These educators work tirelessly to support our students. It was an honor to celebrate them in the Senate chamber!

Revealed: the cost of Republicans' private school voucher scheme is going to cost $125 million ‒ meaning less funding for our public schools. Vouchers are a bad deal for Kansans. #ksleg

Senator Schmidt asks, Where is the real property tax relief that republican politicians promised on the campaign trail? Instead, they are passing tax cuts for millionaires with private jets. #ksleg

The gender-affirming care ban that Senate Republicans advanced today tells LGBTQ Kansans they aren't welcome in our state. It's dangerous, it's wrong, and it goes against our Kansas values. Senate Democrats are proud to support Kansas families – ALL Kansas families. #ksleg

“He completed suicide in his dorm room because of bills being passed just like this.”  At the public hearing, a Kansas mother explains how anti-trans bills make LGBTQ youth feel unwelcome in our state. #ksleg
