Ron Worley is a former Republican member of the Kansas House of Representatives, representing the 30th district. He served from 2007 through 2013, having been defeated in the 2012 Republican primary[1] by Rep. Lance Kinzer of Olathe, after Kinzer and Worley were put in the same district after re-districting. Kinzer then subsequently retired in 2014, endorsing Randy Powell as his successor. Worley challenged Powell for his old seat in the primary,[2] but was subsequently defeated.

Prior to being elected, Worley worked for 14 years as a building official in Lenexa, and has served in the U.S. Air Force. He received his Bachelor's in Business Administration from Kansas State University.
