Republican State Senator District 15 Virgil Peck of Havana continues his 2022 listening tour this week. Senator Peck said his focus is to make it easier for voters to express their thoughts, opinions, and concerns regarding the actions and decisions in Topeka. Senator Peck said he feels that it is important for him to hear directly from individual constituents and that he is sent to Topeka to represent their values and interests, and not those of outside or special interest groups.  To further that effort Senator Peck is trying something different this year by conducting stops in the tour later in the day, in the hope that more constituents will be available to attend.

Wednesday, December 7^th Senator Peck will be in Altamont at the Sr. Citizens Center at 414 S. Houston at 3:30 and at Oswego in the City Commission Room at 5 pm. In an effort to maximize the opportunity for area residents, Senator Peck has invited District 7 Representative-elect Dan Goddard to be involved in the meeting in Altamont, and District 1 State Rep Mike Houser has been invited to join the Oswego event.

Peck expects to discuss the many issues the 2023 Kansas Legislature will face, including tax reforms or cuts and some form of marijuana legalization.
