TOPEKA – Today, Governor Laura Kelly announced the next part of her strategic blueprint for her second-term priorities, ‘The Road Ahead,’ which outlines how she’ll continue strengthening the Kansas economy. In her next term, the governor will continue making strategic investments that work, such as: recruiting more businesses to Kansas, expanding apprenticeship programs, lowering the cost of college education, building more affordable housing, and ensuring that every home, business, school, and hospital that wants it – has access to high-speed internet.
“We’ve made fantastic progress in my first term rebuilding our economy,” Governor Laura Kelly said. “In just four years, we’ve put Kansas back on track, built an award-winning stable economy, and broke records for new business investment. But there is more we must do. We’ll build on our success by investing in the key to our economy: our workforce.”
