I've been following reports of ICE enforcement in southwest Kansas.

Something has gone very wrong when schools are warning about children going uncared for and businesses are closing in fear. The leaders and law enforcement of Dodge City, Garden City, and Liberal even announced they had no idea what was happening and pleaded for more information from their government. One city commissioner said people are being stopped at random in the street.

This is not how Washington should be treating Kansans. Federal enforcement should focus on serious criminals in coordination with local officials and Kansas families shouldn't live in fear.

Kansans deserve the truth.

I want to set the record straight.

These attacks on our faith are false and a sad attempt to distract from the real hardships facing Kansans.

Great game, Chiefs! Listened to it while driving home from Emporia. I was there this evening meeting with a large group of amazing people, Dems, Republicans and Independents, at the Granada Theatre. Thank you to all who came out this evening!

I’m not telling you who to ride with.
I’m simply telling you who I’m riding with…

For 26 years, I traveled the roads of Kansas as a state trooper.
I met people on some of the worst days of their lives.

I never asked which political party they belonged to before helping them.

They were people who needed someone. In those dark and dangerous moments, I was there to serve them and help guide them toward safety and a better tomorrow.

Somewhere along the way, our country started forgetting how to see one another that way. We have become quicker to judge, slower to listen, and far too comfortable treating anyone who disagrees with us like an enemy.

I’m not trying to be a good Democrat or a good Republican.
I’m trying to be a good neighbor.

I don’t believe this road is taking us where we need to go.

Taking a different direction does not require tearing someone down.

In 2019, @RogerMarshallMD nominated me for the Attorney General’s Award for Distinguished Service in Policing. He wrote about my leadership, compassion, and the way I used social media to connect with Kansans and encourage safer choices.

Roger once saw leadership in me.
Speaking honestly now is my way of trying to live up to it.

After talking with @Hamilton4Kansas, I believe he will listen before he speaks, see people before political labels, and treat those who disagree with him with dignity.

I think about our communities, my children and my granddaughter. I want them to live in a country where kindness can still be seen, disagreement does not divide us, and we show up for those who need help.

You may decide differently.
I will still care about you.

That matters more to me than any election.

This November, I’m riding with Adam Hamilton for the United States Senate.

Tonight is our first major fundraising deadline, and I've been reflecting on my campaign for U.S. Senate in Kansas.

At midnight, we close the books on an FEC report that tells the country something words can't. It shows how many people are standing up for something different. Something better and truer to our values.

If you've already given, thank you, truly. If you've been waiting for the right moment, this is it. Anything you can give before midnight makes that number stronger.

Thank you, and God bless. – Adam

A quick update from the trail, and a favor to ask.

Tomorrow at midnight is our first fundraising deadline. The number we report tells people across the country how real our movement is.

If you can chip in before then, I'd really appreciate it: https://t.co/hLddL7myXm

I kicked off the day at The Crazy Mule in Greensburg. I pulled up a chair, drank some coffee, and listened to neighbors talk about what's on their minds.
Here's what I heard: Kansans are ready for a senator who shows up, listens to their concerns, and fights for all of us. Thank you for the warm welcome and conversation! – AH

An update from the campaign trail in southwest Kansas - it's windy! After a townhall here we stopped by the Wizard of Oz museum. I'm reminded we need leaders who will bring courage, critical thinking, and compassion!

Visited the Overland Park farmer's market this morning, did a live interview on KCUR there this morning. Wanted to take a quick vidoeo to share!

Here’s what life looks like on the campaign trail: LaVon and I and several of our staff left home at 8 am this morning. Made phone calls from the back seat for an hour. Arrived in Emporia to meet a small group of terrific folks at Gravel City Roasters and then a radio interview. On to Newton to Prairy, an amazing cafe and general store where we met up with some terrific folks, learned about their community, and had some really delicious sandwiches we ate on the road. Next stop, Wichita. We visited Humankind, a United Methodist ministry focused on addressing housing insecurity. Then met with a great group at Wichita Brewing Company to hear their take on what's happening in Washington and what they hope for in their next Senator - followed by a local TV interview. Then met with some gifted young leaders in Sedgwick County. On to Wichita State University - wow, really impressed with their aerospace program - one of the treasures of Kansas. Finally a gathering of about 100 enthusiastic people where I shared the vision of my campaign and fielded questions. It’s a bit after 9 pm and we’re traveling I-35 back to Stilwell. Home by 11. Long day, but so good! It was really great to get to meet so many of you today! Thank you!

Campaigning today in Pittsburg - what a great day with great folks in the community! We volunteered at Wesley House, met with folks at Pitt State, visited the Community Health Center, and joined a great gathering of folks tonight.

I’ll be at Annual Conference today in Kearney, Nebraska with an amazing gathering of 800+ pastors and laity from the United Methodist churches of Kansas and Nebraska. LaVon and I will be hosting a side gathering in the Holiday Inn tonight at 8 pm for clergy and laity - a chance for me to share a bit about my Senate run and for me to hear from you your thoughts and ideas, hopes and concerns for our country. If you're attending the conference and interested, please join us!
