Governor Laura Kelly tours a southeast Kansas educational facility.

 Governor Kelly was in Pittsburg Wednesday to tour the John Parolo Education Center located on the campus of the Community Health Center of Southeast Kansas. Kelly discussed with the health center's leadership team how Medicaid expansion could help address the state's shortage of healthcare workers.

Kelly says the expansion could help end the shortage by offering better benefits to those in the medical field.

Legislators from Crawford County and the surrounding areas also attended the tour.
