Adam is running for Senate because he believes we need to stop the chaos and corruption in Washington by actually listening, and bringing people together to solve problems. He isn’t a career politician; he’s a Kansan who believes we are better when we work together.
Adam Hamilton is a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate in Kansas who has devoted his life to service. A fifth-generation Kansan, his family came to Dickinson County 147 years ago and helped build the towns of Hope and Elmo. His mother’s parents came to Wichita to work at Beechcraft, and his grandfather went on to fly for TWA.
Adam grew up in Prairie Village and married his high school sweetheart, LaVon, the week after graduation. They celebrated their 44th anniversary this June. They have two daughters, a granddaughter, and two dogs.
In 1990, at 25 years old, Adam and LaVon started a church in the Kansas City area with four people in a borrowed space. For 36 years he has served as pastor of a congregation roughly equal parts Republicans, Democrats and independents, doing the work to bring people together that politicians only talk about.The congregation he built has come together to give hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours and raise tens of millions of dollars to support neighbors and communities in need.
They became the largest source of donated food in Kansas City after the regional food bank and the area’s largest sponsor of blood drives. They gave away thousands of beds to children who didn’t have one, funded a mobile dental clinic that treats 2,700 kids a year at their schools, and invested millions of dollars in the lowest-income elementary schools in the area.
Adam is running for Senate because he believes we need to stop the chaos and corruption in Washington by actually listening to people and working together to get things done for Kansas families. Before deciding to run, he went on a listening tour, visiting communities all across the state to hear from people about their concerns. In his work, his writing, and now his campaign, Adam believes we are all called to serve our communities.
Adam’s running because Washington isn’t listening to us, and they’re making life harder for Kansans. Tariffs, foreign wars, and erratic leadership have made the basic necessities like food, medicine, and gas more expensive. While traveling around the state, Adam has heard from farmers, ranchers, and small-business owners who are struggling with rising costs for fuel and other inputs, and soaring health care costs.
Adam believes that Washington shouldn’t be the world’s bully or a place of gridlock, but a functional government that listens to the people it represents. He isn’t a career politician; he’s a Kansan who believes we are better when we work together.
