Silas Miller
Kansas State House of Representatives
District 86
Silas Miller is a product of Wichita Public Schools and a USMC Veteran. After serving our Nation, Silas chose to return to Wichita to pursue a cosmetology and barbering education career. Silas and his wife, Bailey, are proud residents of the East Front Neighborhood.
Silas is running for the Kansas House to bring energy and creativity to our state government. The status quo isn’t working for Kansas families.
In the Kansas House, Silas is determined to expand Medicaid, support job training and workforce development, and legalize cannabis.
Training and a Living Wage
Our country was built by those that knew how to build. It was the backbone that created the largest economy, and the largest middle class, the world has ever seen. Our society has lost our way, now valuing profits over those that produce them. All Americans deserve the opportunity to obtain an education, job training, and a living wage.
Marijuana Legalization
What has the war on drugs gained us? The largest prison population per capita in the world and a societal stigma that criminalizes the remedies needed by our neighbors to relieve their ailments. It is time to admit we were wrong. Our job now is to legalize marijuana, vacate & expunge past marijuana convictions, and ensure the revenue from a legal cannabis market are reinvested in the communities hit hardest by the War on Drugs.
Medicaid Expansion
Medicaid must be expanded & improved. Making sure all that need it have access to:
- DENTAL, HEARING & VISION COVERAGE
- MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT
- SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT
- REPRODUCTIVE & MATERNITY CARE
- HOME, ASSISTED & SKILLED NURSING CARE
