Come for Breakfast - STAY for the Congressional Debate
Join us for the October membership breakfast, sponsored by Disability Supports of the Great Plains. Hear from Martin Hawver, the editor and publisher of Hawver’s Capitol Report, the respected, non-partisan news service that reports on Kansas government and politics.
Mr. Hawver also is the dean of the Kansas Statehouse press corps, having covered the beat (36 years) longer than any current Statehouse reporter–first for 17 years as a Statehouse reporter for the Topeka Capital-Journal and since 1993 for Hawver’s Capitol Report. He also writes a column syndicated to Kansas newspapers, is interviewed about Kansas government and politics on TV and radio shows, and is a speaker for seminars and conventions.
Mr. Hawver has covered 36 Kansas legislative sessions and 14 national Republican and Democratic political conventions, plus countless statewide and local political conventions.
Congressional Debate at 8:00 am
Immediately following the Membership Breakfast, a congressional debate will be held with First District Representative Tim Huelskamp (Republican) and his Democratic challenger Jim Sherow. Attendees will have the opportunity to submit written questions to the debate moderator Martin Hawver. The debate is open to the public and will conclude by 9:00 am.
