SHOT/CHASER: No Matter How Hard She Tries, Amanda Adkins Still Can’t Hide from Brownback Ties

SHOT: Amanda Adkins fundraising email on ties to former Governor Sam Brownback: “I did not work in the administration.”

CHASER: Adkins “managed Brownback’s 2004 campaign for U.S. Senate,” “was Kansas Republican Party chairwoman when Brownback was elected governor in 2010,” and “after [Brownback] became governor he appointed Adkins to chair the Kansas Children’s Cabinet and Trust Fund.”

“Amanda Adkins’ role in helping execute Brownback’s agenda while he was Governor — including his disastrous tax experiment that gutted funding for Kansas’ education and foster care systems — is a weight on her candidacy, and her latest attempt to run from her past proves how desperate she is to hide her record from Kansans,” said DCCC Spokesperson Brooke Goren.
