     The 8th week of the 2019 legislative session was a short one. Legislators returned to work on Wednesday after the House of Origin break and not much is happening today in the statehouse. A full week of hearings will get underway next week with two weeks of committee hearings on tap and then another week of floor activity heading to the Second House of Origin deadline on Wednesday, March 27.

Legislative & Political Update

December 3, 2018

     On November 6, 2018, State Senator Laura Kelly (D-Topeka) was elected to be the next Governor of the State of Kansas. She will be sworn into office on Monday, January 14, 2019, which is the date in which all constitutional officers are sworn in along with members of the Kansas House.

     Within a week of her election, Governor-elect Kelly announced her transition team to help her review state government agencies and programs in advance of naming her own cabinet members and senior agency officials.

2018 First Ajournment Report

  The Kansas Legislature reached First Adjournment this morning shortly after midnight.  Attached is a general legislative report on the session to date.

  I included comments on the CSA bill and the deer bill.  SB 301, which proposed to require outfitters and guides to register with the KDWP&T passed the Senate, but was not taken up by the House nor incorporated into a conference committee report and should be done with for the session.

  Legislators return to Topeka on Thursday, April 26 to begin the Veto Session.

Legislative Update 3/16/2016

FYI,

  Of note... see the section on Wildlife and Parks bills and take note of a likely attempt to amend a tax bill on Monday with a repeal of certain sales tax exemptions... will see if gamebirds are a part of that effort.
