Friends,

Barbara Bollier is a physician, a state legislator, a mom and the woman who is going to flip Kansas’s Senate seat for Democrats.

She’s an impressive candidate with great credentials and a pretty cool lady too — exactly the kind of woman we need in the Senate. Read more about her below.

And when you’re done reading, we hope you’ll split a contribution between Barbara Bollier and Senator Duckworth’s reelection campaign to help Democrats take back the Senate.

Team,

For as long as I can remember, my life has centered around the basic belief that when level-headed people come together and treat each other with respect, we can find commonsense solutions that improve people’s lives.

But it’s clear that many politicians have lost sight of that mission in Washington D.C. That’s why I’m running for the United States Senate in Kansas. We must do better for our families.

Growing up in Kansas, both of my parents worked in healthcare. My mother was a nurse practitioner and my father was a doctor. He made it his mission to make healthcare more affordable for working families through innovation.

Like my father, I became a doctor to help people. And I first got into public service because I witnessed firsthand just how broken our healthcare system was. The costs are far too high and access is too low. Families are drowning in medical costs while some can’t even get basic care.

So I ran for, and won, a seat in both houses of the Kansas state legislature. There I focused on expanding access to affordable healthcare, funding our schools and growing the economy for Kansas families. I always focused on solutions rather than partisan politics.

I am a doctor; that’s just how I see things.

I went into public service for the same reason I went into medicine: to help people. Plain and simple.

Mitch McConnell and his Senate allies are blocking action to lower prescription drug prices, protect and expand the Affordable Care Act and take serious measures to address the hazards of climate change. It’s time for action, not delay.

We’re at a crossroads in America in 2020. We need leaders who will put our families first. We need public servants focused on finding solutions for regular people, not just big corporate donors and political bosses. We need to send commonsense leaders to Washington to get real results, not just to pick partisan fights. That’s what brings me here.

I choose solutions. I choose the people. I will be the voice of reason Kansans deserve.

Thank you,

Barbara Bollier
