Learn where I stand on the issues
Conservative first
Unchecked government expansion limits our freedom as individuals and hinders the growth of the businesses our state’s economy relies on to thrive. Kansans from all walks of life are impacted in very real ways and I am dedicated to standing up for people just like you. During my time in office, I have worked to limit bureaucratic intervention in our day-to-day lives and make government more efficient. I believe in the importance of defending life, strengthening the family, and protecting our most cherished rights. I will continue fighting for you in Topeka.
Join the effort!
Campaigns take work. So does governing. Our state needs leadership that understands our communities and puts Kansas first. As Majority Leader, I worked to achieve many things for Kansans and voters showed their support for our efforts by sending another Republican supermajority back to the Kansas House. But the work goes on. As Speaker of the House, I need your help to share our current successes and future goals with our neighbors. Together, we can ensure that Kansas continues to be a great place to live, work, and raise a family!

Kansas needs more childcare, but providers are telling us that unnecessary red tape is making an already difficult problem worse.Background checks, maintenance, and safety requirements all have a purpose, but when certain rules become so rigid that providers are spending time and money complying with requirements that don't make sense, we need to listen.I appreciate the House Select Committee on Oversight for investigating the issue on Thursday. With more than 4,000 childcare facilities operating across Kansas, we should be working with providers to expand access while keeping kids safe, not making their jobs harder than they need to be.

Last weekend, the Wichita Pachyderm Club packed the room for a great discussion about all things Kansas and our campaign for Insurance Commissioner.The Insurance Commissioner race may not always get the headlines, but the job has a real impact on Kansans. With new technologies, rising costs, and an increasingly complicated insurance market, it’s more important than ever to have a Commissioner who understands the industry and knows how to fight for consumers.I’ve spent more than 30 years helping Kansas families and small businesses navigate their coverage. I know this industry, I know the challenges Kansans face, and I’m the only candidate with the experience to hit the ground running on day one.
Last weekend, I joined Congressman Ron Estes, fellow candidates, and a great group of volunteers for the opening of the new campaign headquarters.It was great visiting with everyone and seeing so many folks engaged and ready for the weeks ahead. Thank you to Congressman Estes, his team, and the Sedgwick County GOP for putting in the work to allow us to win up and down the ballot this November!
