My Friends:
Our community received disturbing and disappointing news this week regarding the sale of Embarq to an out-of-state company.
This regrettably will mean the potential loss of thousands of Johnson County jobs. Some of our relatives, friends and neighbors will likely be affected during this tumultuous time.
The current economic situation and the news of Embarq pointedly indicate the need to have legislators who are knowledgeable about, and understand the importance of, economic development and the creation of new jobs. We must make Kansas more competitive in the national and global marketplace so new job opportunities will develop. And, we must make Kansas the best state to do business in so our current jobs will be secure as possible.
Please review the Endorsements page to see just a sampling of the community leaders and organizations that feel that I am the clear choice to best represent the hardworking people and their families of the 48th District due to my knowledge, common sense and business experience.
And finally, I want to reiterate a promise we made from day one. Our campaign will be conducted only in a positive manner with information and messages on the issues, opportunities and challenges we face in our state. We realize that many campaigns rely on personal attacks, lies, misinformation and destroyed or vandalized signage; but, we will not stoop to that level of politics.
If you honor me with your vote and I am elected, this is the kind of professional, non-partisan representation you will receive in Topeka. Thank you for your interest and hopefully, for your trust and vote.
Marvin Kleeb
Candidate for State Representative

The Right Kind of Solutions
I grew up with the time-honored philosophy that the government that governs best, governs least.
However, there are important areas where government can and should function as an essential element in the solution for the problems and issues of the State and its people.
When government involvement is appropriate and needed, there are five important aspects to consider:
- The solution should have a clear desired outcome and goal.
- The solution should be as fair and equitable as possible for all citizens.
- The solution should not be unduly burdensome with regulations and bureaucracy.
- The solution should be fiscally responsible.
- If the solution involves taxation, it should be fair and not excessive.
