If Kansas Farm Bureau behaves like Missouri Farm Bureau, then they will once again endorse all the candidates that supports Trump's policies including his absurd trade war. Ie, the policies that are killing the family farm.

ICE & DHS should be able to LOOK at Real ID’s for citizenship status BEFORE pulling people off the streets & out of their homes, places of worship, schools, businesses, etc

Refusing to ask, refusing to look is an action of dictatorship

Interesting AI still has THREE YEAR OLD Real ID numbers, 6 months after the travel deadline.

Real ID
Immigration enforcement statistics & demographics
Death certificates
Rape kit processing
Etc
