Having been elected to the Overland Park City Council three times, I know keeping government accountable starts with keeping government local. We need legislators in Topeka who understand that.
While Sam Brownback and the extremist legislators failed economic experiment has left Kansas in ruins, I have stood for you on the Overland Park City Council as we work to maintain our AAA bond rating, grow jobs, and maintain quality of life amenities that keep people moving here.
Johnson County remains the only county in the state to have a net increase in jobs, thanks to local leaders and the voters who elected us to do just that! Studies have shown city governments to be the most efficient governments, not to mention the most accessible. I have been accessible as a city councilman, and I will continue to make myself available via electronic communications and in person listening sessions when elected to the Kansas Senate. Tell Topeka to listen to Kansas Common Sense, which knows local government is the best government!
