Kansans for Life PAC has officially endorsed Ty Masterson, the Kansas Senate President, for governor, citing his unwavering commitment to anti-abortion policies during his legislative tenure. The organization publicly criticized his GOP opponent, Vicki Schmidt, warning that her potential victory in the crowded Republican primary could jeopardize pro-life efforts. KFL PAC chairman Larry Damm emphasized the importance of uniting anti-abortion voters behind Masterson to prevent Schmidt, who supports 'reasonable exceptions' for abortion, from winning. Masterson expressed his honor in receiving KFL's support, highlighting his role in overriding several vetoes from two-term Democrat Laura Kelly to achieve pro-life victories. The endorsement comes as Masterson seeks to rally conservative support, bolstered by endorsements from President Trump and Senator Roger Marshall. Other Republican candidates in the race include Secretary of State Scott Schwab and several entrepreneurs and former officials, making the primary competitive. KFL was instrumental in the failed 2022 “Value Them Both” amendment, which sought to empower lawmakers to ban abortion, a proposal rejected by 59% of voters in the state.
