Meet Chase LaPorte
A life of service. Not a lifetime in politics.
Chase LaPorte is a veteran, a Kansan, and a citizen who believes public office should remain public service. He is running to bring honest answers, real accountability, and Kansas values to Washington.
Veteran
The Story Behind the Campaign
Leadership is not about the title. It is about the responsibility.
Chase learned that lesson through military service, hard work, and everyday life outside politics. He understands that leadership begins with showing up, listening, taking responsibility, and doing the work when no one is watching.
He is not running because Washington needs another polished political personality. He is running because Kansas deserves a representative who will answer the question, explain the decision, and remember who sent him there.
A Record of Service
From service in uniform to service at home.
Chase’s path from military service to citizen leadership reflects a belief that responsibility is earned through action, accountability, and service before self.
Serving the country in uniform
Chase’s military background shaped his belief in duty, accountability, teamwork, and service before self.
Working outside politics
Chase understands the pressures facing working families, veterans, small businesses, and communities because he has lived life beyond Washington.
Listening before leading
His campaign is built around direct conversations with Kansans, showing up locally, and hearing concerns that are too often ignored by political insiders.
Restoring citizen leadership
Chase is running to support term limits, responsible spending, economic growth, constitutional liberty, and a federal government that remembers its limits.
Verified Military Service
Transparency begins with the candidate.
Chase believes voters should be able to verify the record behind a candidate’s words. That is why he is making his military discharge documentation available directly to the public.
A record voters can see for themselves.
Military service is not a campaign prop. It is a commitment that should be discussed honestly and supported by the record.
Chase is sharing his DD-214 so Kansans do not have to rely only on political advertising, secondhand claims, or carefully written talking points. Voters deserve direct access to the facts.
Certain identifying information may be redacted to protect personal privacy and security. Those privacy protections do not change the underlying service record.

What Guides Chase
The values behind every decision.
These are not campaign slogans. They are the standards Chase believes every public servant should be measured against.
Service Before Self
Public office should be about duty, not status, power, or permanent employment.
Tell the Truth
Voters deserve direct answers, clear reasoning, and the courage to address difficult issues honestly.
Stay Accountable
An elected representative works for the people—not party leadership, consultants, or Washington insiders.
More Than a Candidate
Showing up, listening, and doing the work.
Real campaign imagery should show Chase in the places and with the people he hopes to represent.
