Ownership. I'm a farmer, veteran, and small business owner. Every policy I fight for - tax reform, local control, small business and ag, and honest transparency in government - comes down to whether ordinary Missourians can own their own lives.
Restoring the people's voice in their own government. Lobbyist money runs Jefferson City in the dark, so I'd pass the Missouri People First Campaign Transparency Act: trace every dollar to its original source, and make legislators wear the names of the committees that funded them right on the floor. Sunlight, not secrecy.
