Proud to celebrate the grand opening of @AdventHealth’s updated Wellsville location and meet the dedicated folks expanding care in our rural communities."

The following day, July 12, she highlighted her engagement with aviation professionals at New Century Air Center: "Always great to connect with the team at New Century Air Center! From runway to radar, air safety professionals work 24/7 to keep us safe — and I’m proud to support policies that have their backs."

Later on July 12, Davids addressed efforts against drug abuse in Kansas: "We've made progress in the fight against fentanyl — but there's more work to do. I'm working with local leaders to help keep our communities safe."
