This is a '''list of United States senators from Kansas'''. [[Kansas]] was admitted to the Union on January 29, 1861, and its senators belong to [[Classes of United States senators#Class 2|class 2]] and [[Classes of United States senators#Class 3|class 3]]. Kansas's current senators are Republicans [[Jerry Moran]] and [[Roger Marshall]]. 29 of Kansas's senators have been [[United States Republican Party|Republicans]], three have been [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democrats]], and two have been [[Populist Party (United States)|Populists]]. [[Arthur Capper]] was the state's longest serving senator, served from 1919 to 1949.

Kansas last elected a Democratic senator in 1932, and both seats have been occupied by Republicans since 1939, the longest current streak of one party controlling both of a state's Senate seats. Its class 2 seat has been occupied consecutively by Republicans since 1919, the longest current streak for a single seat in the country.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Bump|first=Philip|title=The partisan history of every U.S. Senate seat, in 1 awesome chart|language=en-US|newspaper=Washington Post|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2014/09/08/the-partisan-history-of-every-u-s-senate-seat-in-1-awesome-chart/|access-date=2020-09-13|issn=0190-8286}}</ref>
