Vicki's record includes:

Voted against cuts to our local schools and Washburn University

Uncovered $391 million worth of cost-savings in Medicaid

Pushed to reduce the sales tax on food

Blocked politics and corruption from taking over our courts

Helped eliminate the estate tax on Kansas families

Fought to block the Governor from borrowing against KPERS

Fought to protect Medicare for seniors

Opposed deficit spending

Helped protect funding for early childhood education
