Member input needed on local political candidates

Members of Kansas Livestock Association Political Action Committee soon will discuss endorsements and contributions for the Aug. 7 primary election. All KLA members are urged to call or email Aaron Popelka, Mike Beam or Tucker Stewart on the KLA staff with recommendations or general information on candidates. The Aug. 7 primary will consist of races for the U.S. House of Representatives, governor, secretary of state, attorney general, state treasurer, insurance commissioner, one Kansas Senate seat and the Kansas House of Representatives.

KLA members are especially encouraged to weigh in on Kansas House of Representatives races where no incumbent is running for re-election. Members can find their voting districts here. Candidates for the primary can be found by going to the Kansas secretary of state website.

KLA PAC backs agriculture-friendly candidates who support KLA policies. It is funded solely by voluntary contributions. No dues dollars are used. Members are encouraged to donate to KLA PAC.
