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

Missouri Vet Home

Sonoma Veterans Home

Kansas Vet Home Winfield

     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.
