Craig Musser for Congress
Craig Musser on Monday formally announces his candidacy for the United States House of Representatives representing Kansas’s First Congressional District. Running under the banner of the United Kansas Party, Musser enters the race with a commitment to principled service for the good of all Kansans.
“Kansans deserve a representative who serves them - not donors, party bosses or Washington insiders,” Musser said, “I’m running to be that representative.”
Central to Musser’s platform is a clear, unwavering commitment to honor the independent spirit that runs deep in Kansas. Kansans have never needed the government to tell them how to live. They’ve always looked out for each other without looking over one another’s shoulders. This principle defines his campaign and it’s the standard by which he intends to govern.
Musser’s own path of academic and professional achievement shapes his conviction that every student deserves access to a quality education. With a career that has been defined by diligence and problem solving, Musser brings a practical, results oriented mindset to public service. He will bring the same discipline to fixing the tax code and healthcare system that are failing too many Kansans. He believes that effective governance is not about ideology – it’s about listening and delivering outcomes.
He recognizes that Kansas is a state of many voices – rural and urban, conservative and progressive, agricultural and industrial. He believes those differences are a source of strength that’s been misused to sow division, and common ground begins with one simple principle; every Kansan, particularly women, whose rights are being eroded by the incumbent party, has the right to self-determination and freedom from government intrusion into their personal lives.
In Washington, too many representatives arrive with many obligations already made. Musser arrives with only one obligation: to the people of Kansas. No donor will buy his vote. No party will own his voice. His measure of success is simple – does it serve the common good?
