Governor Kelly Continues Prosperity on the Plains Tour in Western Kansas

“Without our rural communities, there’s no Kansas. That’s why we have to continue our laser-sharp focus on creating jobs in and attracting businesses to every corner of the state. Thank you to the agriculture leaders, economic development experts and small business owners I met with this week – together, we will continue to grow our economy and make Kansas the best state in the nation to live and work.”

Governor Kelly Announces Kansas Hits 10 Straight Months of Record-Low Unemployment

“We have been tireless about prioritizing job creation, business investment, and workforce development – and it’s clear our efforts are paying off. For ten straight months, Kansas has far outstripped the nation as a whole when it comes to ensuring people have the high-quality employment they need to provide for their families and contribute to their communities.”

Governor Kelly's Efforts to Secure and Protect State's Water Saves Kansas Taxpayers More Than $30M

“I believe in fiscal responsibility, and by paying down reservoir debt early, millions of dollars can now be directed toward things like reducing taxes, fully funding schools, and investing in law enforcement and infrastructure. These payments also help secure a reliable water supply for Kansas residents and businesses, now and for years to come.”
