Ty Masterson, President of the Kansas Senate, recently posted a series of updates on his social media account highlighting legislative activities and outreach efforts.
On March 27, 2026, Masterson wrote about the state budget process: “Yesterday, the Kansas Senate worked late into the night to ensure a budget that stewards Kansas taxpayer dollars wisely was adopted. Resulting in a $189 million reduction in year-over-year spending from fiscal year 2026 to 2027. As Senate President, I have always fought to cut https://t.co/BydudCXlUY”.
Later that day, he reflected on an educational event at the Capitol: “Recently, a class of highschool seniors from Clay Center were visiting the Capitol and I got to speak with them about the importance of good relationships, how things work in the Capitol, and the importance of civic involvement. Thank you for the invitation! https://t.co/6h2zataGL0”.
In another post from March 27, Masterson emphasized recent legislative wins: “We won for families.
We won for lower healthcare costs.
We will ring that bell every time we put more money back in Kansans’ pockets.
No apologies. https://t.co/uAdjPeTynz“.
The Kansas Legislature typically reviews and passes state budgets annually during its session. The role of Senate President involves leading legislative priorities and representing senators’ interests throughout negotiations.
