Calendar Information
How can I get a copy of the calendar prior to the day's session?
You may get an electronic copy of the most current calendar by
visiting the calendar section of this site. You can also find
prior calendars from the current and past legislative sessions
as well. You can also ask for a paper copy of the calendar by
visiting the document room located in the Kansas Statehouse.

Why is the calendar offered only in pdf?
PDF format was selected due to the importance of preserving the
format and the data contained within the calendar. Adobe PDF is
a universal file format that preserves all of the fonts, formatting,
colors, and graphics of any source document, regardless of the
application and platform used to create it. PDF files are compact
and can be shared, viewed, navigated, and printed exactly as intended
by anyone with a free Adobe Acrobat® Reader™.

session.
Who prints the calendars?
The Chief Clerk of the House of Representatives and the Secretary

fall on a weekend or holiday. Calendars are available approximately
one hour after that days' session is adjourned.
Who do I contact regarding the calendars?
The
Chief Clerk of the House
and the

create the House and Senate calendars respectively.
Questions concerning information within the calendar should be
directed to their offices. Please contact our
Help Center
if you are having technical problems with the calendars.
