Mark Parkinson on Energy & Oil

Bring wind farms and green jobs to Kansas

I want to propose that we continue to move forward with energy policy in Kansas. 2008 was about building wind farms in Kansas, 2009 was about bringing wind manufacturing jobs and transmission to Kansas. Let's make 2010 about making Kansas a national leader.

[I have appointed] a Cabinet team who will make sure that we take advantage of every opportunity to continue to bring transmission, wind farms and green jobs to Kansas. It is our destiny to provide clean energy to the rest of the country.
