Kansas State House District 33

“Affordability: We must eliminate the state sales tax on essentials for women & babies, and other essentials for families, to keep more money in their pockets. Let's also strengthen our property tax relief programs for seniors and veterans! We also must expand our small business programs, as Kansas is a thriving ecosystem of local businesses.” (Ballotpedia)
