Tell KCUR: What Do You Want To Ask Or Tell Your Legislators?

As the legislative sessions in both Kansas and Missouri get under way, lawmakers face a number of challenging and controversial issues.

In Kansas, education funding and state finances are at the center of debate. In Missouri, school transfers and ethics are at the top of a long agenda.

We want to know, if you could sit down with your legislators what would you say?

Tell KCUR: What do you want to ask or tell your legislators?

Tweet us your answers with the #TellKCUR hashtag or go to our Facebook page and leave your answer in a comment.  

You also can leave us a message at 816-235-2881 or send an email with your answer to social@kcur.org.

We’ll share your stories Thursday online and on the air during Central Standard, which starts at 10 a.m.

By the way, this Tell KCUR question also is double-duty for us here at KCUR. We recently launched a 'Statehouse Blend' podcast and broadcast segment (on Up To Date) in which we sit down for a casual chat with Kansas legislators and constituents.  We'll consider your responses as we progress through these conversations over the next few months. And Kansans, if you would like to be a participant in 'Statehouse Blend,' fill out this short questionnaire.

Tell KCUR is part of an initiative to engage the community and shine a light on your experiences and opinions. We’ll ask a new question every week and then share your feedback on the air and online. Check out our arsenal of questions and your answers

I partner with communities to uncover the ignored or misrepresented stories by listening and letting communities help identify and shape a narrative. My work brings new voices, sounds, and an authentic sense of place to our coverage of the Kansas City region. My goal is to tell stories on the radio, online, on social media and through face to face conversations that enhance civic dialogue and provide solutions.
KCUR serves the Kansas City region with breaking news and award-winning podcasts.
