A strong working class means a thriving America. Working Kansans built this state, and labor built this country. Kansans aren't asking for a handout, only for a fair shot and a level playing field.

But today, working Kansans are getting ripped off. DOGE cuts have demolished the federal workforce and decreased government efficiency. Federal unions have lost their right to advocate for their workers, and workers have been stripped of their protections under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

In Washington, Anne will fight to restore our federal workforce and always be a friend to labor. She will work as hard to pass the PRO Act and strengthen collective bargaining rights, as Kansans work every day to keep our state strong.

From the Kansas-Nebraska Act to the New Deal farm programs, America has always recognized that strong family farms mean a strong nation. In Kansas, agriculture isn’t just our economy; it’s our heritage, our community, and our way of life.

Today, family farmers are under siege. Rising input costs eat into every acre, while corporate consolidation drives down farmgate prices. Unfair trade deals and unchecked monopolies tilt the market against independent producers. Farmers are often forced to accept any price, sometimes below the cost of production. That’s no way to sustain rural America.

In Washington, Anne will fight for parity pricing, cooperative strength, and a fair marketplace that rewards the people who feed our nation. She will push to stabilize and lower farm input costs, crack down on monopolistic packers and processors, and make sure Kansas producers get a fair price at the farmgate. Anne knows the future of Kansas depends on keeping family farmers on the land, and she’ll stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them every step of the way.

Healthcare is a human right. Kansans agree that no one should have to choose between feeding their family and paying medical bills.

But traveling the state, Anne has met with mothers without access to maternal care and seen the devastating impact of rural hospital closures. With 385,000 children in Kansas on Medicaid facing the loss of coverage under Donald Trump and Roger Marshall’s “Big Ugly Bill,” our health care system is under attack, and so are Kansas families.

In Washington, Anne will fight to pass her Medicare for Kids plan, restore Medicaid funding, ensure access to affordable healthcare, and save rural hospitals.

From the very beginning of our nation, public service was meant to be a calling, not a career ladder or a personal profit center. The framers envisioned a government of, by, and for the people, where elected officials place the public good above their own interests. That tradition of civic duty has made American democracy strong for over two centuries.

But today, Washington has been consumed by cronyism and corruption. Politicians spend more time protecting their careers, donors, and stock portfolios than serving the people they represent. Public office has become a stage for political theater and personal gain instead of a trust held for the people. Kansans are left paying the price while the well-connected cash in.

In Washington, Anne will fight to restore integrity to public service. She will work to end congressional stock trading, strengthen ethics rules, increase transparency, and push for reforms like term limits that open the door for more Kansans to serve.

Education is the cornerstone of our democracy. Every child, in every ZIP code, deserves access to a high-quality public education in a safe and welcoming school.

But for too long, we’ve seen school funding dry up, teacher pay stagnate, and devastating cuts to after-school programs and the arts.

In Washington, Anne will fight for fully funded schools: raising teacher pay, reducing class sizes, standing against voucher programs, and investing in whole child programs that give every student the opportunity to thrive inside and beyond the classroom.

From Alexander Hamilton to Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla to Madeleine Albright, immigrants have shaped every chapter of the American story. They built our industries, expanded our culture, and drove innovation. America's strength is in its diversity. 

But today, instead of strengthening legal immigration, this administration is revoking status from people who followed the rules, turning documented immigrants into undocumented ones. Families are torn apart, and most swept up in their enforcement dragnets have no criminal record at all. Cruelty has replaced common sense, and America is weaker for it.

In Washington, Anne will fight for a secure and sane immigration system that protects our communities, rewards hard work, and lives up to the promise of America. She will stand against tactics of fear and intimidation, and work to modernize our laws so they make sense, keep families safe, and continue the tradition that has always made America thrive.

Any candidate for the United States Senate should always strive to be as transparent as possible with the citizens they are asking to serve. Kansans deserve leaders who answer to them, not to special interests, and Anne will make sure that’s exactly what they get.

Anne is committed to making her campaign fundraising, expenditures, organizational structure, and political convictions openly available to the people of Kansas, and will update the same on a regular basis to be found under the Transparency and Accountability Tab at the top of the webpage.
