Senator Huelskamp: U.S. Supreme Court Gives Green Light to Photo ID for Voters
TOPEKA, KS – In a decisive 6-3 opinion issued earlier today, the United States Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the Photo Identification requirements for Indiana voters. Considered one of the strictest photo ID measures in the nation, the Indiana law requires all voters to present a Photo ID in order to vote.

Senator Tim Huelskamp, author of similar ID proposals in Kansas, stated that today’s decision to uphold the Indiana law could mean Kansas’ efforts to pass a similar measure have been made easier. “This ruling will help clear the path to pass our photo ID bill in Kansas,” Huelskamp said shortly after the decision was rendered. “I’m pleased with the decision and excited over the prospect of getting similar legislation passed here at home this year. Every major argument against Photo ID has been addressed and dispensed by the high court.”

Sen. Huelskamp Co-Sponsors SB 458 to Fight Illegal Immigration
With his co-sponorship of SB 458, the legislation before the Senate dealing with illegal immigration, Senator Tim Huelskamp is continuing his defense of the rule of law. The bill is in response to growing concerns by citizens throughout the state who have contacted their legislators.

A recent article by the Associated Press highlighted the motives for legislation as well as a bill coming in the House. Senator Huelskamp addressed this issue directly:

Sen. Tim Huelskamp of Fowler said the bill isn't aimed at those in the country legally.

"We welcome and encourage those immigrants who come here legally, but those who break our laws deserve tough action," he said.

Stay tuned for developing information regarding the progress of this legislation.

Kansas Senate to Reinstitute Recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance
TOPEKA, KS – Responding to a request from Senator Tim Huelskamp, the Kansas Senate will reinstitute a daily recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance on Kansas Day.

“It is very appropriate that the Kansas Senate will once again recite the Pledge of Allegiance daily. I am excited by this overdue change in the Senate – especially fitting on the day we celebrate the statehood of Kansas,” said Senator Huelskamp. “Such a simple act of patriotism is required of our Kansas youth – we should expect the same of our elected officials.”

Although no one seems to know why and when the daily Pledge of Allegiance was discontinued, it was the request of a Kansas student that led to its resumption. “During the fall, I was contacted by a high school senior upset that his school had discontinued the recitation of the Pledge,” reported Huelskamp. “I contacted the superintendent of the school district. Shortly thereafter flags were distributed to the classroom and the daily Pledge began anew.” A few weeks later, a request was made to legislative leadership which has now been filled.
