Kansas would recognize local political party organizers each May

Kansas would designate a yearly precinct committee person awareness day. The day would honor precinct committee persons, who connect political parties with their communities. State agencies, local governments, educational institutions, and civic groups would be encouraged to offer activities explaining these organizers’ role, but participation would be voluntary. The observance would fall on the first Tuesday in May each year. If enacted, the measure would take effect after publication in the statute book.
