President Biden's FDA has failed to protect the health and well-being of Americans.

We have witnessed the worst disruption to the infant formula market in history, continued drug shortages across the country, and a failure to properly regulate heavy metals in our food supply.

The Sabetha Community Hospital is a 25-bed critical access facility and level IV trauma center in Northeast Kansas.
 
I had a great visit last week to get an update from the hospital leadership team about their upcoming expansion that's set to break ground later this month.

Chiefs and Royals, we’d love to have you in Kansas City, Kansas! Trust me—it’s better on this side of the border. You’d make a great addition to KS02 and I will continue working with state leaders to help make that a reality.

Had the opportunity to stop by G.W. Van Keppel in KCK yesterday afternoon. It was great to learn more about the industry and discuss how we can improve workforce development across our state.

The Junction City Police Department seized enough fentanyl over the past two weeks to kill 1.5 million Kansans.

Mexican cartels continue to take advantage of Joe Biden’s wide open border and smuggle record amounts of fentanyl into our communities.

THANK YOU to Junction City PD…

Expanding access to affordable and quality health care is vital to strengthening communities across Kansas.
