It’s STILL about NO! Rally — Fri, August 2nd 5:30 in Wichita.

After-Event Summary

Wichita House District 100 in west Wichita surprised many with a solid turnout of diverse Wichitans and ten inspiring speakers who gathered to rally and celebrate the 2nd anniversary of Kansas “Just Say NO” victory Aug 2 2022. Music and a good breeze offset of the afternoon heat for cheering attendees. 

Democratic candidates currently running for federal, state and Sedgwick County encouraged participants to honor the “Just Say No” in 2022, and then meet the challenge to “recommit to women’s health, Medicaid expansion for all Kansans, and strong, sustained families during this 2024 election season.

Mike McCorkle, campaigning to unseat Kansas Speaker of the House Dan Hawkins, gave the closing remarks by emphasizing the need to create a brighter future for all Kansans.
