Christine Pruitt completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Pruitt's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Our votes count! In 2022, the issue of reproductive freedom was on the ballot. Kansans voted. Yet the current representatives will not "accept" this vote and continue to pass bills that attack that freedom. I will stand against these efforts.
- Medicaid expansion is long overdue in Kansas. We are one of only 10 states that have NOT passed this. We continue to have friends and neighbors go without the care they need due to this failure.
- Public education requires FULL funding to operate. Kansas is providing the minimum required and that is not enough! Special education needs continue to increase while the funding is not keeping up. Public dollars belong in public schools.
Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public.
