Moran urged to back Salina Democrat in Kansas race
The piece argues for Alan Jilka, Salina Democrat, as the best moderate replacement for the First District seat as Jerry Moran runs for Senate. It contrasts Jilka with Tim Huelskamp, notes Jilka’s immigration stance, views health care as work in progress, and cites his willingness to study issues rather than strictly follow party lines. It also mentions Huelskamp’s opposition to investment and a 10-year transportation plan.
