‼️ACTION ALERT‼️

As we wade into March, and ever further into the legislative session​, we continue to see harmful bills advancing in the KSLeg. ​Among them are targeted attacks ​on voting rights, ​religious freedom, and ​public education.

MAKE TONIGHT COUNT! Ask five friends to join you in taking the two actions below & help stop these legislative attacks on Kansans. 

March came in like a lion at the KSleg

It’s Day #1 of floor votes before Turnaround -- and it’s going to be a looong one. The House gaveled in at 9:30 am and the Senate convened at 10:30 am. It's not too late to take action!

INTRODUCING THE NEW & IMPROVED KSLEG LOOKUP

Mainstream is dedicated to providing you with as much information and support possible in the continued fight against extremism. With our new interactive lookup it's now possible to easily find who represents you in the Kansas legislature, view their real-time legislative scorecard, and monitor their votes on Mainstream-tracked bills as they happen during session.

It’s time for another round of “what is the extremist KS Legislature doing to consolidate power now?” 

If you guessed “trying to confuse Kansas voters with two new constitutional amendments on the November ballot” then you’re a winner! (Except that no one is really a winner when it comes to the KS Legislature lately).

Let’s try to break down what’s happening this time before you head to the polls.

This November, Kansas voters will be asked to retain judges, including six of the seven Kansas Supreme Court Justices. This vote will determine the make-up of the state's highest court and could have a monumental impact on the future of Kansas policy. Mainstream Coalition is encouraging you to vote on Nov 8 to RETAIN ALL.

The August 2nd primary election is only 1 WEEK AWAY. In addition to the historic vote on abortion access, there are primaries throughout the state for national, state, and local offices. Make sure to find your ballot and voting information at ksballot.org or ksboleta.org.

You can also check out Mainstream Coalition's election resources for more information about how to request an advance ballot (deadline is today - July 26!) or vote early in person, where your polling location is, our MainPAC ratings for candidates and KSLeg Voting Scorecard, and more!

THANK YOU!

On August 2nd, every Kansas voter had the opportunity to vote on a constitutional amendment, regardless of party affiliation. If passed, the so-called "value them both" amendment would have changed the Kansas constitution to give extreme politicians the ultimate authority to mandate limited healthcare options and open the door to a complete and total abortion ban.

The KSLeg extremists and outside interest groups who backed the amendment tried to sneak it past voters by placing it on the August primary ballot because they know far fewer Kansans turnout to vote in primaries. They constantly misrepresented current abortion care regulations and intentionally manipulated voters' anxiety and fears. Despite the outright lies and underhanded tactics of the so-called "value them both" campaign:

You and a majority of Kansans across the political spectrum turned out in record numbers to defeat the amendment, preserve the Kansas constitution, and keep abortion care safe and legal in Kansas! 

It was inspiring to see so many Kansans of all ages, political parties, geographic locations and beliefs working together to protect our constitutional rights. This is a win, so take some well-deserved time to celebrate! Then... get ready to do the hard work of keeping this momentum through the Nov 8 general election! It's up to us to protect our victory and block repeated attacks on reproductive freedom in the 2023-2024 Kansas legislative session. #DoMoreThanVote #SaveKansas
