I’m going to have so much to talk about with my #ksleg colleagues when we return to Topeka!⚾️💙

I sit on the last row of Democrats. The row behind me is pretty far right Republicans, but our shared love of the Royals provides a door for conversation and compromise.

RIGHT NOW: ATF HQ just finalized a rule that will help save lives by closing loopholes in our background check system.

“[This] is a massive step towards ensuring the next generation of students won’t have to grow up living in constant fear of gun violence like we have.” -…

The same thing is happening in Kansas. #ksleg

The Legislature adjourned last week after working into the early hours of the morning to rush bills through 👀

Having health coverage opens the door to care, and that helps workers, businesses and communities. Expanding #KanCare will reduce health care costs for all Kansans. It's time #ksleg act to help people afford the care they need. #ExpandKanCareNow

‘The bill…runs about $460 million a year after the first year,…$35 million higher than Kelly’s ceiling…Kelly’s chief of staff, Will Lawrence, reiterated the $425 million cap…though he cautioned he wasn’t saying what action the governor would take.’ #ksleg

Kansas lawmakers failed to cut costs of breast cancer screenings. Advocates call it ‘shameful’ | Thank you ⁦Bek Shackelford-Nwanganga (she/her)⁩ and ⁦KCUR⁩ for continuing to highlight women’s health. #ksleg ⁦Susan G. Komen⁩ kcur.org/news/2024-04-0…

Good news from HD 16!

Today the Arts Council Of JoCo Shooting Stars Gala was held at the Nerman Museum. The program recognizes high school musicians and artists from throughout the area. #ksleg

You can still catch this fabulous Kansas City Symphony program Sunday afternoon. It was the perfect start to the #ksleg break (once I recovered from the super late work night on Friday😴).

2:37 AM. We are adjourned. #ksleg

2:18. Starting the tax bill. I have concerns. #ksleg

Is this what the #ksleg should look like when making big decisions for constituents? 1:23 AM. Still here.

Please know that none of my comments are directed at Rep. Waymaster, Hoffman or Helgerson. I know their integrity is beyond repute. #ksleg

As I say at the end, when I get home I will be able to look my friends & neighbors in the eyes and tell them I fought for them until I could fight no more.

Early diagnosis saves money and lives. #ksleg
