As Chair of House Elections, I was proud to carry and pass a repeal of the so-called "three-day grace period," making Election Day once again Election Day in the state of Kansas. The US Supreme Court now appears poised to make this the law of the land nationwide. #ksleg

In my interim committee, we heard that ActBlue may be "smurfing"—illegally hiding mega & foreign donors as small donations under unwitting people's names. To increase transparency, I'm fighting for a bill requiring candidates, PACs, and parties to report ALL donations. #ksleg

As your House Elections Chair, my focus has been on transparency and restoring confidence in our elections. I’m proud to have led the repeal of the 3-day grace period. We are making sure Election Day is truly Election Day again. #ksleg

Yesterday, we passed disabled veteran property tax relief—a measure I’ve sponsored & fought 6 years for! We lose 3,000 veterans yearly to states like TX & FL for this exact benefit. We're in a national race to retain this talent. Yesterday, we made huge progress. #ksleg

We just passed a bill banning mail-in-ballot-only elections in Kansas! Sending unrequested ballots to everyone—including voters who have moved or died—wastes money and erodes voter confidence. So why did my primary opponent, Rep. @kenrahjes , vote against it? #ksleg

Proud to carry HB2448 to passage last month. As Elections Chair, I introduced this bill to require citizenship status on Kansas driver’s licenses. It’s a simple, common-sense measure to help our frontline poll workers ensure only US citizens are voting in our elections. #ksleg

Your property taxes are set by your local governments, not the state. But local election turnout is frequently under 15%. That's why I’m fighting to move local elections to even years. Higher voter turnout will hold officials accountable for skyrocketing property taxes. #ksleg

AG @KrisKobach1787's office revealed KDHE spent ~$1M sending voter reg forms to Medicaid recipients—including non-citizens. We’re fixing this. My committee just passed a bill ensuring the SOS gets a list of all non-citizen benefit recipients to scrub our voter rolls. #ksleg

If the @GovLauraKelly Administration is going to exceed the NVRA by sending voter reg forms to EVERY beneficiary--citizen and non-citizen--then the @KSHouse_GOP is going to pass my bill, HB2491, to force her to send a list of non-citizen beneficiaries to the @KansasSOS! #ksleg

@RealPatProctor @kenrahjes Every ballot that gets mailed out, should be requested by the voter. That way the voter knows to watch the mailbox for it, and none get sent out to the wrong address or to a deceased person.

We have more 65+ on our voter rolls than there are 65+ alive in Kansas! That's why, as the Elections Committee Chair, I fought to ban mail-in-only elections. Today, it passed overwhelmingly, despite my moderate primary opponent, Rep. @kenrahjes, voting against it. #ksleg
