John,

As we take time to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country this Memorial Day, I’m looking forward to joining our local veterans groups and attending two events in remembrance of the fallen. It is important to remind ourselves that our rights and freedoms cannot be taken for granted and that words cannot express the debt of gratitude we owe to those who have defended those rights and freedoms for us. I hope that you and your family will also take time to honor their memory, pray for their souls, and remember just how lucky we are to be Americans.

Pete Mundo on the Race for KS-03: Did you catch Pete Mundo's show on Wednesday? Pete played two clips from the “4 Star Politics” interviews Sharice Davids and I did with FOX last week. You can listen at https://fb.watch/dh33mw3pMe/. Here’s what he had to say about my race and Sharice as a candidate:

“It’s not close in terms of who would be the more well-rounded and the more well-spoken representative. Just putting those two next to each other tells you everything you need to know about this race. Every single thing.”
