Clove tea, made by steeping cloves in hot water, offers several potential health benefits. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]  
Digestive Health: [6]  

• Cloves contain eugenol, an anti-inflammatory compound that can soothe the digestive tract. [7, 8, 9]  
• Clove tea may help reduce bloating, gas, and indigestion. [5]  
• It can stimulate the production of digestive enzymes, improving nutrient absorption. [3]  

Antioxidant and Antibacterial Properties: [10, 11]  

• Cloves are rich in antioxidants, which protect cells from oxidative damage. [4, 12, 13]  
• They also have antibacterial properties that can fight off infections. [14]  
• Clove tea may boost the immune system and reduce inflammation. [15, 16, 17]  

Other Benefits: [18]  

• Clove tea may help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity. [4, 7]  
• It may have analgesic and anesthetic effects, potentially relieving pain and toothaches. [19, 20, 21]  
• Some studies suggest that clove tea may promote heart health by reducing cholesterol and blood pressure. [22, 23, 24]  

Additional Notes: [25]  

• Clove tea should be consumed in moderation, as excessive consumption can cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting. [26, 27]  
• Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before consuming clove tea. [28, 29, 30]  
• People with certain medical conditions, such as liver or kidney disease, should also consult their doctor before drinking clove tea. [31, 32, 33]  

Recipe for Clove Tea: 

• Add 3-4 cloves to a cup of boiling water. 
• Steep for 5-10 minutes. 
• Strain and add honey or lemon if desired. [1, 34, 35, 36, 37]

As of September 2025, there are two Kansas Senate Bills numbered 37 that are important to distinguish by legislative session. A high-profile 2023–2024 bill proposing tax cuts was vetoed by the governor, but a new bill with the same number was introduced in the 2025–2026 session with a different topic. [1, 2, 3]

Senate Bill 37 (2025–2026 session)
  • What it does: This bill would repeal the three-mile extraterritorial planning and zoning authority for cities. This means that cities would lose the ability to impose their subdivision regulations on land that is located just outside their city limits. Control over unincorporated land would instead fall to county planning commissions.
  • Status: It was introduced in January 2025 and had a hearing in the Senate Committee on Local Government, Transparency and Ethics. Its companion bill in the House is House Bill 2025. [1, 3, 4, 5]
Senate Bill 37 (2023–2024 session)
  • What it did: This bill was a major tax reform package that proposed several changes to the state's tax laws. Key components included:
    • Reducing individual income tax rates.
    • Eliminating the income tax on Social Security benefits.
    • Increasing the Kansas standard deduction and personal exemption.
    • Increasing the residential property tax exemption from the statewide school levy.
  • Status: The bill was ultimately vetoed by Governor Laura Kelly in May 2024, and the veto was sustained. It was a focus of discussion during the spring 2024 legislative session. [2, 6, 7, 8]

Senator Marshall: Monuments Like This Are Our Eternal Storytellers

On Friday, I had the honor and privilege to address a gathering of Gold Star Families at Fort Riley, where the new Gold Star Families Memorial was dedicated.

The 1st Infantry Division – the Big Red One – is the U.S. Army's enduring elder statesman. They are the first to leap into the fire of our nation's fiercest battles: World War I, World War II, Vietnam, and Desert Storm. Always the tip of the spear, charging ahead with unyielding grit.

I told the attending Gold Star Families that their "loved ones' daring deeds have painted indelible strokes on our nation's canvas. And none of it without you — the fervent prayers for a son or daughter overseas, the heartfelt letters to a child in uniform, the home fires kept burning for children while a spouse faced the unknown. Your sacrifices fueled their valor, and today, we bow in gratitude to you both."

As I said during my remarks, "This isn't a shrine to conflict, but a vibrant ode to courage—the kind that transforms everyday folks into legends, inspiring us all to chase life, liberty, and happiness with unbridled zeal."

I also want to recognize the Manhattan Community Foundation, as this memorial couldn't have been possible without their help.

The memorial says that "their duty was to serve; ours is to remember." It's a perfect way to honor the 13,578 names etched on that granite monument. It's my sincere hope that this memorial will serve as a reminder for all of us to live a life worthy of their sacrifice.
