Take Action for Conservation in Kansas, Support HB 2063
Our bill is currently in the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee, and your voice can help ensure Kansas invests in the outdoor learning and community education opportunities that help people connect with the land.
We invite you to take a moment to contact your Kansas House and Senate representatives and express your support for HB 2063. Legislators consistently say that short and personal messages from constituents carry significant weight. Your perspective as someone who works directly with Kansas land and water is especially impactful.
Why This Matters
Conservation is strongest when people understand the natural resources around them. Outdoor and environmental education helps students, families, and community members learn about ecology, stewardship, and the importance of Kansas lands and waters. HB 2063 supports nature-based education by providing voluntary and locally guided funding for schools, youth programs, nature centers, summer camps, community groups, and others who offer hands-on outdoor learning. These investments help young people build confidence and curiosity, strengthen community well-being, and create lifelong connections to the outdoors.
