We commend KS Gov. Laura Kelly on the issuance of a new Executive Order that expands paid family leave policy. Learn more & hear from @WendyDDoyle here: united-we.org/news/2021/7/6/…
Today, I expanded Kansas' parental leave policy for state employees. Supporting our working parents is not only the right thing to do - it's good for our economy and will help us recruit and retain talented Kansans.

When I took office, 70% of the people on our city boards were men. I’ve worked to change that. I was exceedingly proud when we named the members of our most prominent board - the MAPS 4 Citizens Advisory Board - & they were majority women. This effort (see below) will help!
