Governor’s pay: $94,327

According to the independent nonprofit Kansas Policy Institute, Jeffrey Coyler earned total pay of $94,327 in 2018 — the most recent pay data we could find for Kansas’ chief executive.

Colyer isn’t Kansas’ chief executive anymore, however. Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly took office in January after serving four terms as a state senator.

However, as of the time this article was written, not even Kansas’ own public finance portal, KanView, had salary data for the 2019 fiscal year that ended June 30.
