CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP

Welcome to my website! I hope you’ll take some time to look around, reach out with any questions you might have, and get involved. Together, we can take conservative leadership back to Topeka.

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!

The numbers today aren’t something anyone celebrates, but it does reinforce why House Republicans have been working to structurally reform the budget.When revenues soften, you don’t double down on spending. You tighten the belt. That’s exactly what we’ve done. The House budget reduces spending by over $215 million from the current fiscal year and reduces spending by another $122 million for FY 2027, while preserving core services of government. We’re taking a long-term view, prioritizing efficiencies, and rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse.Fiscal Responsibility isn’t just a tagline - it’s a necessity. We’ll continue to look closely to ensure your tax dollars are spent wisely.

It is with deep sadness that I announce the sudden passing of Representative John Resman of Olathe this morning at his home. Representative Resman was a respected public servant, a longtime member of the Olathe community, and a dedicated Representative of House District 121. Representative Resman’s life was defined by service, from his time in the United States Army, to his 28 year career in law enforcement with the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office, to his service in the Kansas House of Representatives, where he embodied a steady and committed voice for his constituents since 2017. Representative John Resman served with integrity, dedication, and a genuine care for the people of his district. Beyond being a true friend to so many in the House, he was a strong advocate for his community, always approached his work dutifully, and thoughtfully took in the perspectives of his constituents when making decisions. Our prayers are with his wife, Elizabeth, his family, and all who knew and respected him during this difficult time.
