Join me in welcoming David to the team

John, I wanted to take a moment to formally introduce you to David Toland, the newest Lieutenant Governor of Kansas. Replacing Lynn Rogers in the Lt. Governor's office is a tall order, but I am confident David will thrive in his new role. David currently serves as Secretary for the Kansas Depar…

John, can I steal a moment of your time? Tonight at midnight we're facing our November end-of-month fundraising deadline and right now we're so close to hitting our $15,000 goal. But I'll be honest, if we're going to close this fundraising gap and raise the remaining $2,957, we need your help ri…
