Policy Agenda
Reducing Regulatory Red Tape
We should empower individuals to be entrepreneurs. Kansas is actively pursuing regulatory reform to reduce bureaucratic burdens and promote economic growth across the state. Efforts include modernizing the rulemaking process through digital submissions, streamlining outdated statutes and filings, and implementing sunset reviews to ensure regulations remain relevant and effective.
The state has also explored innovative approaches like regulatory sandbox programs, which allow businesses to temporarily operate under relaxed regulations to foster innovation while maintaining consumer protections. Legislative proposals have focused on increasing transparency, reducing paperwork, and enhancing public input in the regulatory process. These reforms reflect Kansas’s commitment to limited government, economic liberty, and efficient public service, ensuring that regulations serve the public interest without stifling opportunity or growth.
