(MSC News)--U.S. Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) visited Wamego to meet with Kansans during a Pottawatomie County Kansas Listening Tour stop on Friday, July 5.
“During my Kansas Listening Tour stop in Wamego we discussed a number of issues related to veterans’ healthcare, the VA MISSION Act and the need to prioritize veteran and community mental health resources,” said Sen. Moran. “We also discussed rural broadband and my work to make certain communities across Kansas have access to this technology to compete in the global economy. Additionally, I stressed the importance of passing the USMCA trade agreement to increase market access for farmers, and the Senate’s recent action to provide humanitarian support for our southern border.”
Sen. Moran’s Kansas Listening Tour provides an outlet for area residents to share feedback on the critical issues facing Kansas and the nation. Throughout his time in Congress, Sen. Moran has made it a priority to stay connected to the people he represents despite a distance of more than 1,000 miles between Capitol Hill and Kansas. Since his election to the U.S. Senate, Sen. Moran has continued to hold Listening Tour stops in each of Kansas’ 105 counties.
