Kansas Senate President Steve Morris Endorses Pompeo

WICHITA, KS – Kansas Senate President Steve Morris today announced his endorsement of businessman and military veteran Mike Pompeo in the 4th District Congressional race.

“Mike Pompeo has the experience, education and personal integrity to be an outstanding U.S. Congressman for the 4th District,” Morris said. “First in his class at West Point. Decorated Army officer. Wichita entrepreneur and community leader. These are the qualifications of an exceptional individual. The voters of the 4th Congressional District need to look no further than Mike Pompeo when they vote in the general election.”

“There is a strength of character about Mike Pompeo that you notice immediately,” Morris continued. “I’ve had the privilege of meeting many notable political and cultural personalities over the years, and still, I was impressed by Mike Pompeo when we first met. I have high hopes for the good he can do for his district and for the state of Kansas when he is elected to Congress in November.”

Senator Morris represents eight counties in southwest Kansas and has been President of the Kansas Senate since 2005.

“I am pleased to have the support of a fellow military veteran now serving his country in political office,” Pompeo said. “Senator Morris and I share the same belief that our economy is in peril. The overregulation and out of control spending of the Obama-Pelosi agenda is destroying jobs in Kansas.”

“Thousands of Kansans have lost their jobs,” continued Pompeo. “Thousands more will lose their jobs if we allow the liberal polices of President Obama and Speaker Pelosi to continue. Voters in the are fed up with the failed promises of the Democrat agenda. We cannot afford to send a Congressman from the 4th District of Kansas who will promote big government spending, bloated government bureaucracies and the job killing Obama health care plan.”
