Jason Hart

Jason Hart is a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate in Kansas's 2026 primary election. He entered the political landscape in early March 2026, resigning from his two-decade career as an assistant U.S. attorney, where he specialized in prosecuting child crime cases. Drawing on this experience, Hart advocates for robust measures to hold Big Tech accountable, proposing stronger privacy protections, effective exploitation prevention, and rational safeguards for artificial intelligence. He also champions public education, emphasizing equitable access for all students, support for those with disabilities, and adequate funding for low-income districts. Hart views his background as a straight, white, Christian man as a potential source of bipartisan appeal.
