Legislative advocacy efforts help communicate views to legislators. The future of Kansas depends on enhancing the state's investment in Regents institutions and informing legislators of the university's impact on the state.
Last month, we asked for your assistance when the Kansas Legislature was considering double digit reductions to K-State's FY 2010 State General Fund budget. Your help made a difference because the Legislature adopted Gov. Sebelius' recommendations and passed a FY 2010 budget bill that reduced K-State's budget by 7 percent.
On Feb. 8, 2003, the boards of directors of the K-State and KU Alumni Associations came together to propose a joint resolution in support of higher education to Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
