Kansas HB2057 establishes a process for filling vacancies in the offices of United States senator, state treasurer, and commissioner of insurance.
Kansas HB2057 requires the governor to appoint individuals to fill vacancies in the offices of United States senator, state treasurer, and commissioner of insurance from a list of nominees approved by the legislature. The joint committee on vacancy appointments, consisting of members from both the senate and the house of representatives, reviews and recommends nominees. The legislature then adopts a concurrent resolution designating three nominees as candidates. The governor selects one of these nominees to temporarily fill the vacancy until a successor is elected.
