Senator Jerry Moran✓

I have long supported voter ID requirements for federal elections, which is why I cosponsored the SAVE Act to make certain only U.S. citizens are voting in federal elections.

When disaster strikes, Kansas first responders answer the call, protecting our communities and helping neighbors in times of need. Thank you for your courage, dedication and unwavering service to our state. #FirstRespondersDay

Since my BOTS Act became law, the @FTC has opened several federal cases to prosecute scammers using bots to scalp tickets, but there is still more to do. As tactics become more sophisticated, I will continue working to combat these scams & protect consumers.

This new agreement between @NASA and @USDA will help put America’s investments in space, science and technology to work for agriculture producers. Partnering NASA satellites and forecasting systems with USDA’s agricultural expertise will give producers better information while strengthening American agricultural competitiveness. As chairman of the subcommittee that funds NASA, I have worked closely with Administrator Isaacman to make certain NASA’s Earth Science capabilities deliver practical benefits for American agriculture. I am pleased to see NASA and USDA taking this step.

USDA 🤝 @NASA @SecRollins and @NASAAdmin Isaacman today signed a Memorandum of Understanding to strengthen USDA’s data quality and ensure that American farmers and ranchers benefit from cutting-edge technologies. We’re delivering better agricultural insights, stronger tools, and advanced tech by cooperating on: 🛰️ Mission & data alignment 💻 Data access & infrastructure 📊 Methodology & validation Details:

More than 3,000 Kansans died from drug overdoses between 2020-2024, nearly half from fentanyl. This #RedRibbonWeek, I encourage you to learn more about drug prevention & share this information with loved ones. You never know when it could save a life.

Game time! Great to be in Allen Fieldhouse to cheer on the Jayhawks. #RockChalk

Spirit Defense is continuing Wichita’s long history of defense manufacturing, and today we cut the ribbon on its newly renovated production facility. This new facility will support the assembly of the Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program, bringing more jobs to Kansas and delivering cutting-edge aircraft for our military.   As demands on our defense industrial base increase, I remain committed to supporting Spirit Defense and its workforce, making certain they have the resources needed to grow and drive the next generation of defense technology for our nation. Thank you to CEO Keith Scrader and the entire Spirit Defense team for their critical work and ongoing investment in Kansas. A special thank you to U.S. Representative Ron Estes, Wichita Mayor Lily Wu, Kansas House Speaker Pro Tem Blake Carpenter, State Representatives Sandy Pickert and Leah Howell, State Senators Oletha Faust-Goudeau and Rick Billinger, Sedgwick County Commission Chair Jeff Blubaugh and Commissioners Jim Howell, Pete Meitzner and Stephanie Wise for joining us.

Drug overdoses are a leading cause of death in our nation, and #RedRibbonWeek provides the opportunity to educate on the risk of illicit drugs, support prevention efforts and recognize the law enforcement officers who work every day to keep us safe. I led a resolution with @RepMcDowell, @SenWhiteHouse and @JohnCornyn recognizing Red Ribbon Week and emphasizing the importance of fighting illicit drugs in our country. Make a difference. Be a hero. Stay drug free.

82 years after making the ultimate sacrifice on D-Day, brothers Jay and Bill Moreland were finally brought home to Bushong, KS to be honored by family & the community. We respect your service, we honor your sacrifice and we love you.

Tomorrow is @DEAHQ National #TakeBackDay, an opportunity to safely dispose of expired or unneeded medications to help prevent misuse. It’s free, easy and protects your community. Find a site near you:

Great to be in Ashland today and connect with members of the community. I stopped by the Clark County Courthouse, Stockgrowers State Bank, Bank of Ashland, the local senior center and several businesses. Thank you to everyone for the conversations.

I’m in Alaska yesterday and today visiting Fort Greely, the Missile Defense Complex and meeting with servicemembers. As a senior defense appropriator, I’m here to learn more about our Defense Missile System and the Golden Dome.   I will continue working to strengthen our missile defense and support opportunities for Kansas to play a role in advancing that mission.

Saddened to hear of the tragic loss of life in Wichita today at a local sporting event. I’m grateful to the first responders who quickly responded and everyone who jumped into action to help save lives. While the investigation is ongoing, the Wichita Police Department has requested help from witnesses who might have video to aid in their investigation.

136 years ago, Kansas’ favorite son was born. President Eisenhower exemplified the best of Kansas, and he never forgot his roots throughout his extraordinary life. On his birthday, we reflect on his journey from a small-town Kansas boy to the Supreme Allied Commander in WWII to our nation’s 34th President – a legacy that continues to inspire Kansans and Americans. If you visit Washington, D.C., I encourage you to stop by the Eisenhower Memorial, which features a tribute to his 1945 homecoming speech in Abilene.

Me: “Glad you agree with Kansans. Best, Jerry” @NASAAdmin: “We will right this wrong.”

Happy 251st Birthday to @USNavy! Thank you to all of the sailors who protected our nation’s freedom since 1775 and continue to today. Forged by the Sea!

Happy #NationalFarmersDay to the hardworking men and women in Kansas who work tirelessly to put food on our tables. Today and every day, I am grateful for the farmers in Kansas and across the country who are answering the noble call to feed our world.

This morning, shortly after the shift change, I visited Bombardier and met with employees as I walked the facility. Employees shared with me their experience at the company and how they are contributing to our aerospace industry. Nearly 1,500 Kansans are employed at Bombardier, contributing their expertise to our national defense and aerospace manufacturing. In 2022, Bombardier expanded its presence in Kansas by selecting Wichita as its U.S. headquarters. Their continued growth in the Air Capital of the World is driven by Kansas’ skilled workforce, cutting-edge research at our universities and the hundreds of smaller manufacturers who contribute to the local aerospace community. I will continue supporting Bombardier’s efforts to grow and create more American jobs as they contribute to the aerospace industry and our national defense. Thank you to everyone at Bombardier for the many conversations.

Sanctions on Russian fuel exports have, for the last several years, deprived funding for Putin’s unjust war in Ukraine and provided leverage to help end it. We should be tightening sanctions further, not undercutting them by allowing the import of Russian diesel and risking erasing our leverage, damaging our credibility with allies, and emboldening our adversaries.
