Congresswoman Jenkins Tours Cessna Plant, one of Kansas' biggest exporters
In 2010 export sales from Kansas totaled $9.93 billion and one out of every fifteen private sector jobs in Kansas is supported by exports. Kansas companies involved in trade grow faster and pay more than ‘domestic only’ manufacturers. That is why I am committed to finding new markets for Kansas agriculture, aircraft and other manufactured goods. As a member of the House Ways and Means Committee and the Subcommittee on Trade, I am working to make sure that the interests of Kansans are protected as we work through trade agreements that remove barriers to Kansas products.

1. Aircraft $2,143 ,000,000
2. Industrial Machinery $956,000,000
