Robyn Essex (R)

People are hurting. With today's rising inflation and a recession looming, Kansans are looking for some relief. Home values are sharply rising, along with property taxes. We need to examine our tax policy while looking for ways to reduce spending and decrease the size of government. Above all, we need to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars while ensuring that core functions of government are funded appropriately.

Kansas should be a place that supports entrepreneurship and small business. We need to explore policy options that will bring about our desired outcome to improve our standard of living, create jobs, and support innovation.

I will protect and promote life, liberty, and our constitutional rights.

Tax relief, pro-small business, job creation, educational opportunities for young and old, backing the blue and keeping our streets safe, mental health, infrastructure, energy independence, pro-life, election integrity, and protecting our constitutional rights.
