Provide tools to fill 48,000 unfilled jobs in our state
Job growth and enhancing the quality of life for all Kansans must be our highest priority. So, here's my vision for Kansas:Over the next few years, I want us to work together to steadily and professionally build Kansas to be a vibrant, growing state.
In short, I want our children to see their best future right here in Kansas.
The Kansas unemployment rate is 3.4%. That's one of the lowest in the country. But if you travel around our state, it's impossible to miss the real-world struggles still
faced by so many Kansas families. A rising tide lifts all boats, but too many of our people seem to be stranded on dry land. An expanding economy with opportunities for higher income and rising standards of living only works if our citizens have the
right tools to make the most of their own lives.
Did you know there are more than 48,000 unfilled jobs in our state today? Truly, we have jobs looking for people. More and better jobs for Kansans is important to me personally.
