U.S. Chamber Endorses Rep. Derek Schmidt for Kansas’s Second District

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce announced its endorsement of Rep. Derek Schmidt for Kansas's Second District. The U.S. Chamber endorses candidates for federal office who will support policies that drive innovation, grow the economy, and create opportunities for American businesses and workers.

"The U.S. Chamber is pleased to announce our endorsement of Derek Schmidt for Congress in the Second District of Kansas. Congressman Schmidt has been a strong voice for pro-growth policies that address affordability through his support for the Working Families Tax Cut and his work to combat retail crime and cargo theft," said Tom Wickham, Vice President and Managing Director of the U.S. Chamber's Government Affairs team. "The U.S. Chamber is looking forward to continuing this successful partnership with him in the 120th Congress."

"The Chamber's endorsement reflects what we've been fighting for since day one: lower taxes, less red tape, and a level playing field for Kansas job creators," said Rep. Schmidt. "From the family farm to Main Street businesses in every corner of this district, Kansans want Washington to get out of the way and let them work. I'm honored to have the U.S. Chamber of Commerce in our corner, and I'll keep delivering the pro-growth policies that put Kansas workers and employers first."
