Patrick’s story is rooted in hard work, service, and standing up for Kansas families. 🇺🇸 We need a leader who knows what it takes to defend our country from those who seek to undermine it, who understands the challenges and threats to our national security, and who will fight with everything they have to protect the freedoms we hold dear. He comes from a long line of farmers, veterans, teachers, and coal miners, and was raised to believe that if you see a problem, you step up and fix it. Now he’s ready to take that fight to Washington.
