Timeline

1958

Barbara Goolsbee Bollier (born January 13, 1958) is an American physician and politician.

Barbara Goolsbee was born in Galveston, Texas, on January 13, 1958, while her father, Robert L. Goolsbee (1931–2015), was in his medical residency, and her mother, Betty, was a nurse, whom Goolsbee had met during an internship in Kansas City, Missouri.

She grew up in Fairway, Kansas, and Mission Hills, Kansas.

After receiving an undergraduate degree at the University of Kansas, Bollier earned a Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Kansas School of Medicine.

Her residency at Baylor College of Medicine was in anesthesiology; her father too had attended Baylor University.

After earning her M.D., Bollier joined her father's practice at Surgicenter of Kansas City.

1999

Bollier retired from medicine in 1999.

She then began to volunteer with the Center for Practical Bioethics and became active with the Shawnee Mission Education Foundation Board.

2010

Bollier's legislative career began in 2010 when Republican precinct committee members appointed her to replace Terrie Huntington who had been appointed to the Kansas Senate.

From 2010 to 2012 Bollier represented the 25th district as a Republican in the Kansas House of Representatives.

Bollier did not have a Republican primary challenger in 2010 or 2012.

2013

She represented the 21st House district from 2013 to 2017.

2014

In 2014 she faced Neil Melton, who received support from the conservative groups.

Bollier won, 59 percent to 41 percent.

2016

In May 2016, Bollier ran for the Kansas Senate 7th district, after state Senator Kay Wolf announced that she was retiring.

Bollier won the seat by defeating Democrat Megan England, with 22,439 votes (54.3%) to 18,884 votes (45.6%).

2017

From 2017 to 2021, she was a member of the Kansas Senate representing the 7th district, which includes Mission Hills, Kansas in Johnson County.

2018

Bollier is a member of the Democratic Party, after having left the Republican Party in 2018.

In July 2018, Kansas Senate President Susan Wagle removed Bollier as the Vice Chair of the Senate Public Health and Welfare Committee after she endorsed Democrat Tom Niermann's campaign for Congress.

In the November 2018 election, Bollier supported the Democratic candidate for governor Laura Kelly over the Republican candidate, Secretary of State Kris Kobach.

On December 12, 2018, Bollier changed her party affiliation to the Democratic Party, saying: "Morally, the party is not going where my compass resides. I'm looking forward to being in a party that represents the ideals that I do, including Medicaid expansion and funding our K–12 schools."

Bollier said that the "breaking point" had been the Kansas Republican Party's inclusion of anti-transgender language in its platform.

Bollier was one of three Kansas legislators to switch from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party in December 2018; the other two were state Representative Stephanie Clayton and state Senator Dinah Sykes.

2019

On October 16, 2019, Bollier announced that she would run in the 2020 election for the United States Senate seat being vacated by the retiring Pat Roberts.

The next day, former United States Attorney for Kansas Barry Grissom dropped out of the race and endorsed Bollier.

Grissom's withdrawal from the race came despite his having raised almost half a million dollars in contributions during the previous quarter.

His departure left Bollier as the party's clear frontrunner in the primary.

2020

Bollier was the Democratic nominee in the 2020 United States Senate election in Kansas, losing in the general election to Republican congressman Roger Marshall.

She won the Democratic primary on August 4, 2020, with 87.5% of the vote.

In the general election, she faced the Republican nominee, congressman Roger Marshall, the congressman for Kansas's 1st congressional district, who defeated Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach in the Republican primary.

Bollier's senate candidacy was endorsed by former Democratic Governor Kathleen Sebelius.

The Sebelius endorsement came after Sebelius referenced Bollier's history of almost a decade of consistent support for fully funding schools, Medicaid Expansion, and the repeal of what she called former Governor Sam Brownback's "devastating tax experiment".

On September 1, 2020, she published a list of 75 Republican current and former Kansas officeholders who supported her campaign.

Bollier was also endorsed by Nancy Kassebaum, a Republican former U.S. senator.

During her 2020 campaign, Bollier called for defending and expanding the Affordable Care Act.

She does not support Medicare for All.

Bollier lost to Marshall by a 12 point margin.
