Kansas Vet Home Winfield

Kansas Veterans Home legislation co-sponsored by Rep. Tim Johnson
​(December 31, 2020)

     The support of our veterans is critical and the Leavenworth and Jefferson County representatives have joined together and introduced a veterans bill to build a Kansas Veterans Home in northeast Kansas.  We look to our vets for advice and community support as we work with the introduction of this new legislation.
​     The two bills have passed through the House of Representatives and now await action on the Senate side.
