Kansas Republican Yoder in D.C. for victory lap

August 24, 2010

Kansas House candidate Kevin Yoder (R) will be in Washington Wednesday for a fundraising event and a tour of the National Rifle Association.

It’s his first trip to D.C. since winning his primary earlier this month. He’s set to face Democrat Stephene Moore, who’s running for her retiring husband’s seat. Yoder is a top recruit of the National Republican Congressional Committee.

He’s doing a lunchtime fundraiser at Carmine’s that will be hosted by Tim McGivern, a lobbyist for several top telecommunications companies, and Jeff Freeman, a lobbyist for the NRA.

He’ll then go to the NRA offices to chat with officials, according to sources.
