Statement on government shutdown
A government shutdown solution was eventually signed into law, with Jenkins voting in favor of the measure. She also released an official statement regarding the shutdown solution: "Historically, divided government has created opportunities for Congress to come together and develop real, bipartisan solutions to some of our nation’s greatest challenges. Unfortunately, this did not happen either. We needed to close that chapter, and open a new one, in order to address our nation’s fiscal problems. I voted today to get our government back open, to prevent any default on our obligations, and get people back to work while our negotiators have a serious conversation about our debt crisis."[104] Jenkins posted a picture on her Facebook page of the letter she sent to House officials requesting that her pay be withheld.[105] ImmigrationMorton Memos Prohibition

—Lynn Jenkins' campaign website, https://www.lynnjenkins.com/the-issues/ |
2012
The policy positions below were outlined on Jenkins' campaign website.[119]
- Fiscal Responsibility
Excerpt: "I ran for Congress because of the reckless fiscal policies coming out of Washington. Kansas common sense tells me you cannot spend more than you take in. My background as a certified public accountant, state legislator, and state treasurer, has given me a unique perspective to take to Washington."[120]
- Limited Government
Excerpt: "I firmly believe that the federal government has a few foundational purposes: protecting us in a dangerous and uncertain world, helping maintain and build our nation’s infrastructure, and allowing for economic and individual freedom. The most effective type of government is the one that is closest to the people it serves."[121]
- Defense
Excerpt: "Our men and women fighting overseas and those here at home deserve all the respect, honor, and support that we can give them. That is why I have been a constant advocate for getting our troops the tools they need to succeed and complete their mission."[122]
- Healthcare
Excerpt: "As a member of the House Ways and Means Committee I am working to repeal Obamacare and create real health care reforms. Our plan includes weeding out waste and fraud, giving tax credits to allow people to buy their own insurance."[123]
- Second Amendment
Excerpt: "Growing up in rural Kansas, I have known from a young age that as Americans, we cherish our right to keep and bear arms. I support the Second Amendment and applaud the Supreme Court's decision that reaffirmed every individual American's right to bear arms."[124]

Personal Gain Index

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: Change in net worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Jenkins' net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $196,014 and $665,000. That averages to $430,507, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $6,956,438.47. Jenkins ranked as the 287th most wealthy representative in 2012.[125] Between 2007 and 2012, Jenkins' calculated net worth[126] decreased by an average of 12 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[127]
Lynn Jenkins Yearly Net Worth | |
---|---|
Year | Average Net Worth |
2007 | $1,048,858 |
2012 | $430,507 |
Growth from 2007 to 2012: | −59% |
Average annual growth: | −12%[128] |
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[129] |
The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.
PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Jenkins received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Health Professionals industry.
From 2007-2014, 23.57 percent of Jenkins' career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[130]
