Learn where I stand on the issues
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!

This is exactly why we worked so hard to pass the By-Right Housing Development Act this year.Kansas needs more attainable housing, especially for young families who want to settle down here. One of the best ways to bring prices down is simple: meet demand and build more homes.For too long, outdated zoning rules and government red tape have made it harder and more expensive to build, especially the starter homes young families need. SB 418 cuts through those barriers and streamlines the approval process so new housing can actually get built.I'm proud of the work we did to get this legislation across the finish line and look forward to seeing its impact across Kansas.
Will new Kansas by-right housing law help KCK affordability?

Kansas’ By-Right Housing Development Act took effect July 1. It makes it easier to build ADUs in KCK and kickstarts zoning changes underway in Wyandotte County.
It’s all hands on deck with Election Day getting closer!We’ve been hard at work putting together yard signs and replenishing supplies across the state. I’ve never been afraid to roll up my sleeves and do the work, and my attitude towards the Insurance Department would be no different.Thank you to everyone who has already put up a yard sign, we’re working hard to make sure they’re available everywhere. Please stop by your county GOP office if you’d like to join the team!
Yesterday, I spoke directly with voters from across Franklin County at their Candidate Forum. It was a chance to share more about my background, the experience I’ll bring to the Insurance Department, and my priorities as Insurance Commissioner, but more importantly, to hear directly from the people I’m asking to serve.Thank you to everyone who came out and took part in the conversation!
Kansans deserve an Insurance Commissioner who knows the industry, understands the challenges families face, and is ready to get to work on day one.I’ve spent more than 30 years helping Kansans navigate their insurance coverage, and I’m ready to put that experience to work for you.Election Day is less than a month away, and I’m working every day to earn your vote. Together, we can make sure the Insurance Department is working for Kansans.
With the first quarter of this fiscal year behind us, Kansas' financial outlook is very encouraging. House Republicans have worked to control spending, return money to taxpayers, and fund the priorities Kansans expect.See my full statement below:
