💭 Thursday Thoughts Last week, I asked what’s hurting your budget the most and I heard you. This week, I’m flipping the question: 👉 What policy do you think could actually help lower prices? #costofliving #lowerprices #policymatters #communityvoices #chriscarmichaelks04

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Dr. King reminded us that progress requires service, courage, and a commitment to justice for everyone. I believe that service means standing up for one another and working toward a future rooted in dignity, opportunity, and fairness. Together, we keep moving forward for Kansas. #mlkday #martinlutherkingjr #keepmovingforward💪 #equalitymatters #kansasstrong

Welcome to Thursday Thoughts 💭 Every Thursday, I'll be asking Kansans: what questions or concerns do you have about our state? Your voice helps guide the conversation, so I can go from listening to putting things into real action. #ActionForKansas #thursdaythoughts💭 #kspolitics #yourvoicematters

Your grocery bill is higher than it was last year. Kansas families don’t need a chart to know that. Beef. Bananas. Coffee. All cost more in 2025 than in 2024. Kansans need solutions that lower costs. I’m running to help Kansas families afford the basics again. #kansasfamilies #costofliving #affordablekansas #lowergrocerybills #supportkansans

🍵 Happy National Hot Tea Day! Let’s spill the real tea... not gossip, just facts. Health care costs are too high. Rural hospitals in Kansas are at risk. Chris Carmichael is focused on lowering costs and protecting access to care — no drama, just solutions. #nationalhotteaday #healthcareforall #kansaspolitics #ruralhealth #lowerhealthcosts #factsnotdrama

A step forward on affordable health care...but the work isn’t done. Now it’s up to the Senate. No Kansan should have to choose between seeing a doctor and paying the bills. #AffordableCareAct #ProtectOurCare #ACA #HealthcareJustice #KansasVotes

𝟲𝟴 𝗵𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗿𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗞𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴. Think about that… Rock Regional Hospital in Derby closed its doors for good on Wednesday, leaving our community without emergency and acute care right here at home. This is a loss of vital care for neighbors, a loss of jobs, and a reminder that too many of our rural and small-community hospitals are hanging by a thread. When we lose a hospital in our district, people don’t just drive a little farther they face longer waits in emergencies, more strain on families who can’t travel easily, and fewer options for care near where they live and work. I believe every Kansan deserves access to quality health care, no matter which ZIP code they live in. Our rural hospitals are more than facilities, they’re anchors for community health, local jobs, and peace of mind for families across District 4. It’s time for leadership that fights for sustainable solutions, not just short-term fixes. https://www.kake.com/home/derby-s-rock-regional-hospital-shuts-its-doors-forcing-patients-to-find-treatment-elsewhere/article_0a47d26d-1abe-448e-a93d-12a6ee5987b8.html #protectruralcommunities #saveruralhospitals #healthcareforall #kansashealthcare #ks04

We have just two weeks before our financial report is due. Now is the moment to show your support and contribute. This is our moment to show the nation we're serious.

A lot of people have been asking where I’m from and when I moved to Kansas — and I get why. You deserve to know the person asking for your trust. I first started coming to Kansas a few years ago for work, spending most of my time in Wichita, Andover, Augusta, Ark City, and the surrounding towns. I grew up in Ohio, so the Midwest has always felt like home. The warmth, honesty, and down-to-earth values here felt familiar from day one. With 31 years of service in the Army and the Air Force, I was naturally drawn to this area. Wichita is the Air Capital of the World — and for someone who has spent a lifetime around aviation, that means something. Visiting McConnell Air Force Base, including meeting Mission Support Group Commander “Boz,” only made it feel even more like the right place to be. I also taught Aviation History for Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, and Wichita was always part of the curriculum. Even before moving, I knew how important this region is to America’s aviation story. My daughter and her husband moved to Wichita when she accepted an engineering job in the aviation industry. With my other kids in Colorado and Utah, Kansas puts me close to all three. Once she made the move, I did too — bought a home in Andover, got my Kansas driver’s license, and made it official. For the last two years, I’ve been working here, traveling here often, and getting to know the community. The Midwest values, aviation roots, and the people here make Kansas the place I’m proud to call home. I know this won’t answer every question, but I look forward to doing that in the months ahead. If you want to get to know me better, I’d love to meet you in person. You can sign up on my website for info on upcoming events — hope to see you soon.

🇺🇸 I’m officially running for Congress — and Kansas, I’m ready to get to work. 🇺🇸 This month, I had the honor of joining Kansans in the Veterans Day Parade — a reminder of why I’m stepping forward. Our community deserves leaders who show up, listen, and stand on common ground. I’m running for Congress in Kansas’ 4th District because: ✅ Basics Shouldn’t Break The Bank. Health care, groceries, gas — Kansans are paying too much, and Washington isn’t fixing it. ✅ Defend Freedom. Protect The Constitution. I spent more than 30 years in uniform protecting the Constitution. I believe our constitutional rights must be protected from being chipped away. ✅ Everyone Should Play By The Same Rules. Our tax system should be fair, hard-working Kansans shouldn’t carry the load while large corporations avoid paying in. ✅ Veterans Deserve The Benefits They Earned. As a Bronze Star recipient and Afghanistan veteran, I’ll work to ensure no veteran is left behind. We can build a Kansas where we look out for each other — and where common sense wins over division. These are just a few of the issues I stand for. I’m ready to fight for you. Will you stand with me?
