It’s a new year and a new legislative session. Today, I will begin my daily commute to and from the Capitol. It’s a little like the first day of school, excitement to see everyone combined with days of preparation for the work ahead. We know with everything going on in the world, there is a
The legislature is going back into session today! Liberals are hard at work to confuse Kansans about religious freedom. They are using several confusing and inaccurate arguments to try to influence legislators about what religious freedom means.

Most families are preparing for their kids to go back to school. This year seems fraught with even more issues than normal, especially as local school boards are taking more and more power away from parents under the guise of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We’ve seen churches being forced to close. We’re currently watching events unfold in some counties that are pretty clear violations of residents’ privacy. But
As we get near the potential end of the stay-at-home order in Kansas (though the exact date seems to be up for debate), everyone has a different idea of how we move forward at this point. I won’t claim to know the best answers across the board. What I do know is that we need

The abortion industry isn’t the only one exploiting the COVID-19 crisis for their own bottom line. Pornhub, the world’s largest pornography website, is also jumping into the fray by making its premium content free worldwide.
