LaTurner departs amid GOP House turmoil and optimism
Rep. LaTurner announces departure as Republicans hold a narrow House majority amid historic speaker ousters and infighting that nearly shut down the government. He says dysfunction is persistent but remains hopeful for the country’s future and praises colleagues and founders for enduring challenges. Kansas Democrat Rep. Davids commends his policy work and cites bipartisan efforts on housing, broadband, flood prevention, the Quindaro Townsite, and the Cesar Chavez bridge repairs.
