Why do I have to pay for these services?
Kansas.gov is a fee funded state agency that provides electronic government to the citizens of Kansas. As a fee funded agency, we do not receive any tax dollars and must totally fund our operation through user fees. More than 95% of the information on the legislative site is provided at no cost. However, there are some applications that have a fee attached. Revenue collected from these services are used to support the ongoing development of the state's Internet applications.

How do I become a subscriber?
All the information needed to become a subscriber can be located on Kansas.gov, the official Web site of the state of Kansas, in the subscriber area.
