Where they stand
In their own words, from their campaign website, summarised in plain English.
Economy and cost of living
Masterson says he wants a Kansas where working families can afford to live and where his children and grandchildren can afford to stay. He says he is taking on the biggest bills squeezing Kansas families, including a Ratepayer Protection Pledge to shield families, farms, schools, hospitals and small businesses from higher costs created by outside interests.
Taxes and government spending
Masterson says that as Kansas Senate President he led the fight for $2 billion in tax cuts, which he describes as the largest in state history. He is promoting a Homeowners Bill of Rights to protect homeowners from runaway property taxes and give taxpayers a stronger voice.
