A former Roeland Park Mayor has become the third republican to kick off a campaign to challenge freshman Democratic Congresswoman Sharice Davids. Adrienne Foster announced her campaign this week for the GOP nomination in the third congressional district. She served one term as the mayor of Roeland Park before becoming Executive Director of the Kansas Hispanic and Latino American Affairs Commission under republican governor Sam Brownback and Jeff Colyer. During her tenure with the commission, she faced calls for her registration over comments she made in support of then candidate Donald Trump. Also running in the republican primary is former national Down Syndrome Society CEO, Sarah Hart Weir and Amanda Adkins, a cerner corporation executive with political ties to Brownback.
