The annual KRHA Legislative Affairs conference is a great opportunity for our members to join the conversation about upcoming legislative issues and how it will impact business in Kansas. This event provides members an opportunity to discuss pertinent issues with lawmakers throughout the state. The "Taste of Kansas" luncheon provides us an opportunity to educate lawmakers on the economic impact of the hospitality industry and give us an opportunity to highlight a few of the great places to dine out in the great state of Kansas.  

Come participate in the conversation, and join us on January 12th to learn about specific issues that KRHA lobbyist believe will be introduced during the 2017 legislative session.  Learn how these issues will have a direct economic impact on your operation.  We will highlight these issues and provide talking points to those that would like to carry the message to their elected officials.  This is a great way to get involved, even for those that are new to the legislative scene.
