Greetings SNCO Dems! 

The legislative session has officially wrapped. It has been a long few months of staying informed, speaking out, and showing up. Take a moment to recharge, spend time with family and friends, and reset.

Now we turn the page.

The end of session is where our work in the community really begins. With critical elections ahead, it is all hands on deck to support Democratic candidates up and down the ballot and build momentum across Kansas and the U.S.A.

Every action add up. A conversation, a shared post, an hour of volunteering... we see you. And it all matters. Thank you.

Take that breather. Then let’s get back to work. We are glad you are in this with us.

Coover for Congress!

If you missed our canvass for Don Coover last Saturday, you are in luck! We are hosting another canvass to gather signatures for Don to run against Derek Schmidt for U.S. Congress. We need door knockers and drivers. Sign up!
Watch an interview with Don HERE!
