Kansas Democratic Party Platform Survey

The Democratic Party of Kansas has a survey to determine their party platform. This is your chance to get involved with your state party and help shape the issues they focus on. They begin by highlighting the ignorant and irresponsible Republican Party platform:

The Kansas Republican Party has adopted the most conservative platform in memory. At a time when the state is facing the worst recession in generations and record unemployment what has Sam Brownback and his conservative allies chosen to focus their attention on?

* Creationism
* Repeal of Health Insurance Reform
* State Sovereignty
* International Isolationism
* Corporal Punishment
* Marriage Discrimination in the Constitution
* Support for Private Schools
* Partisan elections for Judges
* "English only" mandates

Beyond that, their platform explicitly calls for legislators to cut all government services. This is not responsible policy making.

Adequate funding for Public Schools, including higher education
