FORMER STATE SENATOR BARBARA BOLLIER ENDORSES PATRICK SCHMIDT FOR CONGRESS 

Dr. Barbara Bollier, former State Senator, announces support for Schmidt in KS-02 campaign 

TOPEKA, Kan. — Former US Senate candidate and Kansas Senator, Barbara Bollier, today announced her endorsement of Patrick Schmidt, candidate for Kansas’ Second Congressional District. 

“I’m thrilled to endorse Patrick in his run for Congress,” Barbara Bollier said. “Patrick’s roots as a sixth-generation Kansan, coupled with his exemplary Naval service to keep our country safe, make him the best candidate to represent Kansans and their families in Washington.” 

Talking to families across the state during my campaign, and as a physician, I heard from multiple Kansans who were struggling to just get by, let alone get ahead,” Bollier continued. “And Patrick knows first-hand the challenges Kansas families are facing: Growing up, his parents, public school teachers, had to work two jobs to pay the bills, including medicines his father needed when he became seriously ill. Kansans can count on Patrick to fight for the good jobs, good wages, and quality, affordable healthcare they need to support their families and live a good, stable life.”
