Kansas state employees earlier this week illustrated the power of collective bargaining for the purpose of encouraging positive change in their government and workplace.

There’s a bit of upcoming Democratic (or just plain liberal!) action coming up in Kansas these next few weeks. Here’s a quick guide:
Tomorrow, the Fourth District Young Dems (4DYD’s!) will be meeting and holding a meeting with everyone’s favorite addition – margaritas! (I’m sure you can get a virgin one, high school kiddos.) Details here, [...]
