Kansas should amend its constitution to cap yearly increases in property tax assessments.
Background
Kansas does not limit how fast a home's assessed value can rise from year to year, so tax bills can climb with market prices. A cap would slow those increases and limit growth in local government and school revenue.
Sixty-four percent of adults typically own homes. In Kansas, 74% own vehicles. We're effectively switching and removing the tax burden from property owners to car owners, some of whom don't own property.
Kansas should cut its state income tax rates further.
Background
Kansas cut its income tax rates in 2024 and stopped taxing Social Security benefits. Further cuts would reduce state revenue that funds schools, roads and other services.
Kansas should expand Medicaid to cover more low-income adults.
Background
Kansas is one of the states that has not adopted the Medicaid expansion for adults earning up to 138 percent of the poverty line. Expansion would cover many uninsured adults, with the federal government paying most of the cost.
Cindy has voted over and over to expand Medicaid, protect our rural hospitals, and legalize medicinal cannabis, proposals that were blocked by Ty Masterson in the Senate.

Kansas should use state money to help students pay private school tuition.
Background
Kansas currently offers a limited tax-credit scholarship for some low-income students to attend private schools. Broader state funding, such as vouchers or education savings accounts, would make more students eligible.
Kansas should pause construction of new large data centers.
Background
Several large data centers have been proposed in Kansas, raising questions about electricity rates, water use and tax incentives. A pause would halt new projects while the state sets rules on those issues.
Kansas should have voters elect state supreme court justices.
Background
Kansas Supreme Court justices are chosen by the governor from nominees picked by a commission, then face retention votes. Electing justices would require a constitutional amendment, and voters rejected one in August 2026 by about 61 to 39 percent.
Kansas should keep abortion legal up to about 22 weeks of pregnancy.
Background
Kansas law allows most abortions until about 22 weeks, and in 2022 voters rejected an amendment that would have removed abortion protections from the state constitution. Keeping current law would leave that limit in place.
Kansans spoke very loudly and clearly in August of 2022. I believe it was close to 60% saying that they wanted to preserve access to reproductive health care.
