I held a public town hall in Oakley this afternoon. People gave up part of their weekend to come, and they brought their questions with them. 603 days ago, Roger Marshall held a town hall in Oakley. He called the crowd one of the rudest audiences he’d ever had, ended the event early, and walked out. He hasn't held one since. Later he said town halls like this had become “non-productive” and “dangerous.” I don’t believe that. I looked out at that room today and saw good, hardworking people concerned about important issues. Farmers worried about the cost of diesel and fertilizer. Parents trying to figure out how they’ll pay for health care. Neighbors looking out for families who are struggling to put food on the table. We didn’t agree on everything, but we had an honest conversation about how I’ll fight for them in Washington. That’s what this job is, and Kansans deserve a senator who stays and listens. Thank you, Oakley. – AH

I can’t wait to hit the road. We’re ending this campaign the way it started: traveling the state, listening to your concerns, and sharing my plans to end the chaos and corruption in Washington. We’re making more than 20 stops, and I hope to see you at one of them. At every stop, I’ll ask Kansans the same thing: make a plan to vote, and bring a neighbor with you. There are twelve days left. Let’s finish this together. – AH
