Our nation and our state are at a crossroads for the future of our
Constitutional Republic. Every day our liberties and safety are being
threatened by the ideas and actions of the leftists.
I have been faithfully constant in standing and defending our God-given freedoms. I am not a politician but a man who believes in God, Family and Country. I am the only candidate in this race who is 100% pro-life and honestly believe in upholding the oath of office, defending the Constitution and Bill of Rights of the state of Kansas.
I’m the only one who will defend our 2nd Amendment rights. I wholeheartedly believe we must fully fund and support our police departments for our communities’ safety and protection.
I am the only person in this race who is not for bigger, more expensive government programs and promises. I’m the only one in
this race who believes that quality education, not costly education, should be a choice. I am also the only one who has the proven record on voting “no” against higher taxes. I am the only one in this race who truly believes in standing for Biblical traditional values that have made this nation and state so great.
I have the endorsements of Kansans for Life, Family Policy Alliance of Kansas, an “A” rating with the NRA and the endorsement of the Kansas State Rifle Association. Kansas Livestock Association, Kansas Farm Bureau, Kansas Agribusiness Council, Kansas Grain and Feed Association, Kansas Agribusiness Retailers Association, Kansas Cooperative Council, Americans for Prosperity, Kansas Association of Realtors, Kansas Automobile Dealers Association, Kansas Chamber, National Federation of Independent Businesses (NFIB).
As the proven Constitutional Conservative; I am for limited government, limited taxes, and for holding the government accountable to “We the People”. We must stand together to retain our liberties and our rights to self govern without the intrusion and overreach of the government.
“Let’s stand together for what is right.”

Lynn D. Grant, the longtime city councilor and widow of 10-term Kansas legislator Bob Grant, is running for her late husband’s seat representing Kansas State House District 2.
Kansas State House of Representatives District 2 includes most of Crawford County, the eastern 1/3 of Allen and Neosho Counties, and a small portion of SW Bourbon County.
“I have been involved in the community that is SEK for over 50 years,” said Grant, who was born in Overland Park, but moved southeast to attend Pittsburg State University and never left. “This is my home. Now I hope to honor Bob’s legacy by representing the constituents of the second district in Topeka.”
Here are the key issues, Grant said:
Transportation Good highways, bridges, and railways are essential to not only the safety of Kansans, but to the positive economic development needed in Southeast Kansas. Locally, US 69 must always be a top priority and Highway 7 north of Girard needs critical attention.
Jobs/economy In order to attract businesses that will create full time, good-paying jobs, I will support efforts to establish responsible tax policies and to protect education and infrastructure.
Public Education I am passionate about the Legislature supporting public education. That begins with fair funding of early childhood through post-secondary education, be it technical, trade, or higher education, so all students have endless possibilities for their future. A good education is the cornerstone of a good society. It is also the best investment we can make for the good of our communities.
Local government control Representatives to local government know our needs, priorities and are elected by the people in their community. I object to the current trend of the state making decisions for local governments and handing down mandates that adversely affect the ability of local governments to do their jobs.
Health Care I believe that all Kansans deserve affordable health care. I will fight the tax policies and callous decisions that have contributed to lack of adequate treatment and facilities for those who undergo any kind of illness. Expansion of Medicaid MUST be on the table in the next Legislative session. We are judged by the way we treat our most vulnerable.
Higher Ed Kansas must support the institutions that allow students to pursue a college education. Post-secondary education enables people to learn and follow a path to a productive life no matter what course of study they choose. These institutions are drivers in economical benefits for their communities through employment and the services required for students.
Judiciary There are three, separate, independent branches of government because those checks and balances are essential to maintaining a system that is of, by and for the people.
Food Insecurity With the decline of our small towns and their grocery stores, Kansas is beginning to experience “food deserts.” This doesn’t mean the food is not available, but that healthy food is increasingly hard to get. The United States Department of Agriculture defines food insecurity as “limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe foods . . .”
People are getting fed but not in a way that contributes to overall good health.
We need to examine ways to rectify that to protect people of all ages in our communities.
* I respect all life from the preborn to those making end of life decisions. Health care, care for women before and after giving birth, education, fighting poverty, providing safe homes for foster children, taking care of our seniors, respecting the dignity of all. This is all pro-life.
*I respect the 2nd Amendment and have never considered taking away guns as an option. I have always supported reasonable, safe gun ownership.

My first dog was an adorable little black and white Rat Terrier. We named him Stormy because he was born on a stormy night and Dad brought him home on a stormy night. And then there was Davy, a smart grayish-black Poodle. I hadn’t had him very long when he simply disappeared; we never figured out what happened to him. And then in 2012, the same thing happened to Gus, my son’s beloved fawn Boxer. He was a beautiful and loyal friend, but one day he simply disappeared and we never saw him again.
No one lives forever on planet earth. For everything there is a season — a time to live and a time to die. Living and dying are eternally connected because the way you live determines where you go after you die. Your physical body returns to dust, but your spirit lives on forever in either heaven or hell. And it doesn’t matter whether you believe there’s a heaven or a hell; you will spend eternity in one place or the other because God‘s Word says so. God’s truth will trump man’s false opinion every time.
By inspiration of the Holy Spirit, the apostle Paul tells us, “And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment, so also Christ died once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people“ (Hebrews 9:27,28a NLT). God’s perfect plan is for everyone (who believes in Jesus and obeys His Word) to have an eternal home in heaven (John 14:1-4). You can take it to the bank — God is loving and full of mercy!
Jesus speaks of the judgment that comes after death: “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels‘…And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life” (Matthew 25:41,46 NKJV). It’s important to understand that hell was not made for people. However, when an individual chooses not to become born again and rejects Jesus as Savior and Lord, he has damned himself to spend eternity in hell.
Paul wrote to the Christians in the province of Galatia: “Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God” (Galatians 5:19-21 ESV). If any of these things are active in your life, then earnestly repent and receive God’s forgiveness now. You may not have tomorrow.
Oh where, oh where will you be after you take your last breath? If you think you’re simply going to disappear and take a long snooze, you’re sadly mistaken. When I was a young girl, I used to play and sing a song in church entitled, “Where Will You Be?” Here’s the first verse: “Just one life to live on earth and it swiftly passes by. From the moment of our birth ’til our time has come to die; God has given us this choice to decide our destiny. In a million years, where will you be?”
The Key: Heaven is as wonderful as hell is horrible. You better get to livin’ like there’s no tomorrow, because at the end of your life there’s only one thing that will matter.
