Logan Heley was a 2016 Democratic candidate for District 21 of the Kansas State Senate.

Campaign themes

2016

Heley's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

Fiscal responsibility

  • Excerpt: "Logan supports fair taxes where everyone pays their share to support the services Kansans expect and deserve."

Strong public schools

  • Excerpt: "Our teachers must have the resources they need to help Kansas kids succeed. We need to fully staff our school counselors and support systems so students have encouragement and resources when they have problems or are looking towards college or a career after graduation."

Opportunity for all

  • Excerpt:
  • Austere but adequate funding for the services Kansans expect and deserve, such as our roads and bridges, health facilities, and other support services.
  • Helping low and middle-income Kansas families rather than antagonizing and hurting them with extra burdens.
  • Fair and well-funded judicial courts and public safety systems.
  • This includes merit selection of our judges so politics doesn’t trump the law.
  • Proper funding for our public colleges and universities as well as workforce training programs.[2]
