Throughout the campaign, I told Kansans I wanted to be the education governor. And today, I’m so proud to sign the education bill alongside this bipartisan group of lawmakers to finally end the cycle of litigation and move our state forward.
We want to debate Medicaid expansion our constituents have asked us to have this discussion. #ksleg
Led by the women
#MedicaidExpansion has been brought to the House floor!!! #ksleg
"Supporters of expanding Medicaid in Kansas forced a debate Wednesday in the Republican-controlled Legislature on Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly’s plan and advanced an expansion bill with bipartisan support over GOP leaders’ objections." #ksleg apnews.com/11e7fb2b36744e…
Happy #InternationalWomansDay2019 Be strong. Be fierce. Be you.
Kicking off Kansas Day early celebrating @sharicedavids! Her election marked yet another extraordinary moment in the state’s 158 history.
I think I speak for all of my colleges, regardless of our haircuts, when I say knock it off. This is the #ksleg, not a fashion show.
#MedicaidExpansion has been brought to the House floor!!! #ksleg
If you don’t get why women are so excited about a lactation room in #ksleg maybe you’ve never testified in a borrowed jacket after you leaked breastmilk on the other one b/c there wasn’t a place to pump even after $325 mil rennovation.
There’s an incredible energy in the halls of Congress today. We make progress when our country’s representatives look more like our country itself, when more women, people of color and young people hold office. Today is a huge step forward, and we’re just getting started.
THREAD: After seeing this tweet from Politico, I decided to search for tweets by several mainstream news orgs and see how they use the terms “likeable,” “unlikable,” and “likability” when applied to men vs. women. The results are...stark.
Kansas the only state to lose women in the legislature. @cindy4kansas at the @lathropgage legislative forecast
In March 2018, we launched #GenderWatch2018 to track, analyze, and illuminate gender dynamics in #election2018. Just over one month after Election Day, our project has come to its conclusion. To celebrate, here are some of the highlights from our team and our many contributors!
Studies show women are more transparent when in elected office. Just another reason to support electing more women. #ksleg
Kansas Gov.-elect Laura Kelly's selection of a nominee for a vacancy on the Kansas Court of Appeals will look more like the collaborative, transparent approach used prior to then-Gov. Sam Brownback's unilateral, secret system for filling openings. cjonline.com/news/20181129/… #ksleg
Conversely, then number of women in the Kansas legislature decreased after the 2018 election. #ksleg
🚨IT'S NEWS SIREN🚨 Only one state legislative chamber has ever reached or surpassed parity for women's representation-- the New Hampshire Senate in 2009-2010. Not anymore. The Nevada Assembly and the Colorado House will be 52.4% and 50.8% women, respectively, next year.
Some advice to women and young girls: don't let them push you around, don't run away from the fight. You are stronger than you think. –NP
We’re thankful for all of the women who stepped up to run for office in 2018. It’s a sacrifice. Even if you didn’t win, you stood up for what you believe in. #ksleg
There is a lot to be thankful for this year! We are especially thankful for each of you. From our family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!!
In contrast to nat'l trend, number of women serving in #ksleg DECLINED this year. Ladies, it's not too early to start thinking about running in 2020. Women still face long road to equal representation, especially in Kansas cjonline.com/opinion/201811… cc @kawpac
Provisional votes still must be counted next week before final official result in JOCO. But if latest result holds, JOCO Commission will have 2 women on 7-person panel. First women elected since 2010.
