TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback is preparing to outline the final part of his re-election campaign platform, focusing on protecting the state’s natural resources.

Brownback scheduled a news conference Wednesday morning at a Kansas River boat ramp inside Kaw River State Park in Topeka. He also planned a Wednesday afternoon event at Cheney Reservoir, west of Wichita.

The governor has been announcing the goals he’ll pursue if he wins a second, four-year term. Previous announcements have covered the economy, education and resisting federal regulations.

Brownback calls his platform “Road Map 2.0,” casting it as a follow-up to the “Road Map for Kansas” platform he outlined in 2010.

Brownback faces Democrat Paul Davis and Libertarian Keen Umbehr in the Nov. 4 election.
