Contact state & federal legislators
Jump to state | Jump to federal
Here you will find contact information for Lawrence- and Douglas County-area representatives and senators for both the Kansas state and federal levels.
We believe it is a healthy and essential function for the public to contact the delegates who are making laws and decisions on their behalf. Therefore, we intend to list contact information and social media pages (although some legislators may not be present or active on all platforms) on our site.
Voters registered in Douglas County can find all their representatives by putting in their information at this link.
Want to share your thoughts with other Lawrence Times readers? Send us a letter! Are we missing someone, or is this list out of date? Please let us know ASAP: hello@lawrencekstimes.com
