Healthcare
We need to expand Medicaid. Doing so is a critical to the public health of our state and will give tens of thousands of Kansans access to healthcare. Additionally, as a previous board member of Johnson County Mental Health Board, I am deeply concerned about the rising rates of suicide, particularly among young Kansans. We have made moderate restorations to mental health, but we have a long way to go and I will continue to be a strong voice in our Capitol for additional funding for our community mental health programs.
