Schmidt previously served as a member of the Kansas Senate, representing the 15th district, and as Senate Majority Leader. Before serving in the legislature, he was Special Counsel to Governor Bill Graves.[1] Schmidt defeated then-attorney general, Democrat Stephen Six in the November 2010 elections,[2] Democrat A.J. Kotich in the 2014 elections, and Democrat Sarah Swain in the 2018 elections. Schmidt resigned his Senate seat upon taking office as attorney general.[3] Early life and careerDerek Larkin Schmidt was born on January 23, 1968 in Independence, Kansas. Schmidt is the only child of Barbara Schmidt and Bill Schmidt.[4] He attended the University of Kansas where he received a BA in Journalism in 1990. Schmidt travelled overseas to the United Kingdom where at the University of Leicester he obtained his Masters in International Politics. He went on to attend Georgetown University Law Center (GULC) where Schmidt received his Juris Doctor. While attending classes at GULC, Schmidt served as an assistant, first to former United States Senator Nancy Kassebaum, and then to Senator Chuck Hagel.[5] Following his graduation he served in several public official roles including Assistant Attorney General of Kansas, and as Special Counsel to the Governor of Kansas.[1] Legislative careerSchmidt was elected to the Kansas Senate in 2000. He defeated Virgil Peck Jr. in the Republican primary and Democrat Joshua Shelton in the general election. He was re-elected to represent the 15th District in 2004 and again in 2008, both times without opposition. Agriculture CommitteeImmediately upon taking office in January 2001, Schmidt was appointed to serve as Chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee, a rarity for a freshman senator. He remained chairman until he was later elected Senate Majority Leader by the Senate Republican Caucus in December 2004. Senate Majority LeaderIn the race for Majority Leader, Schmidt defeated then-Senator Tim Huelskamp, who would later go on to represent Kansas' First Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. Schmidt was re-elected Majority Leader in 2008 without opposition.[6] While serving as Majority Leader, Schmidt also served as Vice Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. In both capacities, Schmidt provided leadership on public safety legislation and oversaw the passage of Kansas' version of Jessica's Law, which provides for a life sentence in prison for certain sex offenders who prey on children.[7] LegislationDuring his time in the Kansas Senate, Schmidt also supported:[8]
Legislation sponsored or co-sponsored by Schmidt included:[8]
Major donorsThe top contributors to Schmidt's 2008 Senate campaign, according to the National Institute on Money in State Politics:[10] Kansas Association of Realtors $2,000, Kansas Contractor's Association $1,500, Watco Industries $1,500, Koch Industries $1,500, and Kansas Chamber of Commerce $1,500. Attorney General2010 campaignSchmidt was the Republican nominee for Kansas Attorney General, defeating Ralph DeZago in the Republican Primary on August 3, 2010.[11] He won the general election against the incumbent, Democrat Steve Six[12] and took office on January 10, 2011. A major issue in Schmidt's first campaign for attorney general was based on Six's decision not to join with the state of Florida and 24 other states on appeal in support of the plaintiff in the proceedings challenging the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Six contended that “the cost of getting involved” would exceed any gain realized by Kansas if the ACA was repealed.[13] 2014 campaignSchmidt won re-election after defeating Democrat Al Kotich in the 2014 Kansas elections. Schmidt received 564,766 votes, more than any statewide candidate except Ron Estes who was re-elected for a second term as State Treasurer. Schmidt assembled a significantly larger coalition of support than other high profile Republican candidates on the ballot, including Governor Sam Brownback, Senator Pat Roberts, and Secretary of State Kris Kobach. Tenure in officeOne of Schmidt's first acts attorney general for Kansas was to join the states that oppose the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act on constitutional grounds in the case of Florida et al v. United States Department of Health and Human Services.[14][15] An Appeals court later ruled that the addition of those 25 states was not necessary for Florida to have standing to challenge the ACA.[16] The U.S. Supreme Court decided that case by upholding most of the ACA as constitutional, while striking down a portion of the law which would have mandated states to implement Medicaid expansion.[17][18][19] Schmidt also opposed allowing same sex couples from changing names on state drivers licenses, from receiving spousal health benefits, or from filing state taxes as married couples. The ACLU sought an injunction against Schmidt's initiatives to continue bans in most of the state's counties despite adversarial rulings from a federal district court in Kansas and from the U.S. Supreme Court.[20] Schmidt joined forces with Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, filing briefs which attempted to force the Kansas Democratic party to field a candidate in the 2014 U.S. Senate general election. If successful, it was anticipated to have decreased the chances of independent candidate Greg Orman of defeating incumbent Republican Pat Roberts. The Kansas District Court in Shawnee County declined to issue any such order.[21] Schmidt, along with the attorneys general of several other states, challenged several federal regulatory actions, during the Obama administration. Schmidt and his colleagues were successful in blocking many of these regulations, particularly those proposed by the Environmental Protection Agency.[22][23][24][25] In July 2017, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton led Schmidt and a group of Republican Attorneys General from eight other states joined by Idaho Governor Butch Otter in making a threat to the Donald Trump administration that they would litigate if the president did not terminate the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals policy that had been put into place by president Barack Obama. One, Tennessee Attorney General Herbert H. Slatery III, subsequently reversed his position and withdrew his participation from the proposed suit on August 31. Slatery went further to urge passage of the DREAM Act.[26][27] The other Attorneys General who joined in making the threats against Trump included Steve Marshall of Alabama, Leslie Rutledge of Arkansas, Lawrence Wasden of Idaho, Jeff Landry of Louisiana, Doug Peterson of Nebraska, Alan Wilson of South Carolina, and Patrick Morrisey of West Virginia.[28] In 2017, Schmidt's colleagues elected him to serve as president of the National Association of Attorneys General.[29] In February 2018, in the case of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri v. Andersen, the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit found that "States may not terminate providers from their Medicaid program for any reason they see fit, especially when that reason is unrelated to the provider's competence and the quality of the health care it provides."[30] Schmidt claimed that the decision, as well as a similar one made by the Fifth Circuit in the Louisiana case of Gee v. Planned Parenthood Of Gulf Coast, allowed "millions of Medicaid beneficiaries the ability to go directly to federal court to challenge a state's determination that their provider is not 'qualified' — bypassing layers of state administrative review". In December 2018, the Supreme Court of the United States rejected a motion for a writ of certiorari by Schmidt who supported overturning the 10th Circuit's decision.[31] Electoral history{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas State Senate 15th District Republican Primary Election, 2000[32]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change|party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt |votes = 7,002 |percentage = 58.20 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Virgil Peck, Jr. |votes = 5,029 |percentage = 41.80 }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas State Senate 15th District General Election, 2000[33]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt |votes = 17,230 |percentage = 73.41 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Democratic Party (US) |candidate = Johnetta Shelton |votes = 6,240 |percentage = 26.59 }}{{Election box hold with party link without swing |winner = Republican Party (US) }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas State Senate 15th District General Election, 2004[34]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt (Incumbent) |votes = 24,307 |percentage = 100.00 }}{{Election box hold with party link without swing |winner = Republican Party (US) }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas State Senate 15th District General Election, 2008[35]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt (Incumbent) |votes = 24,259 |percentage = 100.00 }}{{Election box hold with party link without swing |winner = Republican Party (US) }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas Attorney General Republican Primary Election, 2010[11]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt |votes = 208,611 |percentage = 76.30 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Ralph De Zago |votes = 64,493 |percentage = 23.60 }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas Attorney General General Election, 2010[12]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt |votes = 458,497 |percentage = 54.90 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = Steve Six (Incumbent) |votes = 349,340 |percentage = 41.80 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Libertarian Party (US) |candidate = Dennis Hawver |votes = 26,867 |percentage = 3.20 }}{{Election box gain with party link without swing |winner = Republican Party (US) |loser = Democratic Party (United States) }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas Attorney General General Election, 2014[36]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt (Incumbent) |votes = 564,766 |percentage = 66.70 }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = Al Kotich |votes = 281,105 |percentage = 33.20 }}{{Election box hold with party link without swing |winner = Republican Party (US) }}{{Election box end}}{{Election box begin no change | title=Kansas Attorney General General Election, 2018[37]}}{{Election box winning candidate with party link no change |party = Republican Party (US) |candidate = Derek Schmidt (Incumbent) |votes = 599,773 |percentage = 59% }}{{Election box candidate with party link no change |party = Democratic Party (United States) |candidate = Sarah G.
