VOTE411 Voter Guide

My priorities are education, growing our economy, improving safety and access to health care, and protecting the environment. Each of these works together: employers and employees are attracted to places where they and their children can be educated, safe, welcome and healthy.

My top priority is growing and attracting good jobs for Missouri. I would do this by fighting to fund public education and making Missouri a welcoming place to live and raise a family regardless of your background. This requires improving access to health care, protecting workers' rights, robust crime and violence prevention, and creating a shared sense of belonging.

I support protecting parents' rights. Parents should not be left out of the conversation when their child is considering irreversible gender-transitioning actions. Biological males should not be allowed to compete against biological females in any sport nor should they be allowed in women's locker rooms or bathrooms. I also oppose CRT and the 1619 Project in our schools.

I want to support or introduce legislation that encourages small business start-ups and less stringent regulations for existing small businesses. I also support lower taxes and putting an end to frivolous lawsuits, many of which are filed against small businesses. These suits have a negative effect on the owners, employees and customers of those businesses.
