“Today President Obama named Governor Sebelius as his nominee for Secretary of Health and Human Services. It's an enormous honor for the Governor and reflects what we all know about her superb abilities and accomplishments in moving Kansas forward. As hard as it will be to send our Governor to Washington, I know she will do incredible work serving our country in the President’s Cabinet.

We know that Kansans are facing the most challenging economy in our lifetimes. Our commitment is to continue to do everything we can to move our state forward.”
