HUNT VALLEY, Md. (TNND) — Senator-elect Adam Hamilton, the Kansas Democrat and part-time pastor, is carrying his faith with him to Washington. Days after his defeat of incumbent Republican Roger Marshall, Hamilton arrived at the Capitol for orientation to a legislature with which he has little experience.

With a 6-4 vote, the Kansas State Board of Education on Nov. 9 passed a policy regarding effective use of instructional technology in Kansas schools.
