Lastly, I rise today to recognize and thank Katherine Thomas for her tireless and selfless work for all Kansans. In the last 8 years, Katherine has championed Kansas farmers and ranchers in the Halls of Congress, working on food and agricultural issues for several Members of the Kansas congressional delegation. In 2018, Katherine helped usher the farm bill to completion under the direction of Senator Pat Roberts, then Chairman of the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee. Most recently, knowing how important agriculture was to me, Katherine helped establish my new congressional office and prioritize farmers and ranchers in the big First Congressional District. I am proud to have had Katherine on my team, and I wish her the best of luck in her next adventure back in the Senate. Thank you, Katherine. ____________________
