Issues That Matter

We support balanced budgets, less wasteful spending, and low taxes for Missouri families and small businesses. Every tax dollar is earned by a hardworking Missourian and should be spent with care and accountability. Bloated government programs and unchecked spending put an unfair burden on future generations.

• Balanced state budgets
• Lower taxes for families and small businesses
• Eliminate wasteful government spending
• Accountability and transparency in public funds

We stand firmly behind law enforcement and support policies that protect Missouri families and neighborhoods. That means fully funding our police and first responders, holding criminals accountable, and rejecting the defund movement that has made communities across America less safe. Public safety is the foundation of a thriving community.

• Full funding for law enforcement and first responders
• Support for the men and women in blue
• Tough-on-crime sentencing policies
• Reject defund-the-police ideology

Parents are the primary educators of their children, and local communities should have the greatest say in how schools are run. We support school choice, parental rights in education, and keeping curriculum decisions out of the hands of distant bureaucrats. Every Missouri child deserves a quality education that reflects the values of their family and community.

• School choice and education savings accounts
• Parental rights in curriculum decisions
• Local control over school policy
• Protect children from age-inappropriate content

We support pro-business policies, workforce development and smart infrastructure investment that create real jobs and opportunity in Southwest Missouri. Entrepreneurs and small business owners are the backbone of our economy, and they need a government that works with them, not against them.

• Pro-business regulatory environment
• Workforce development and vocational training
• Infrastructure investment in rural Missouri
• Support for small businesses and entrepreneurs

Our founding documents define our republic, and every Missourian should know them. The Second Amendment is a fundamental right, free speech must be protected, and government power should stay limited and accountable to the people it serves. Understanding the Constitution is the first step to defending it.

• Unwavering defense of the Second Amendment
• Protection of free speech and religious liberty
• Opposition to government overreach
• Constitutional literacy and civic education

Faith isn't just a private conviction. It shapes how we serve our communities. Strong families are the bedrock of healthy communities, so we stand for protecting life, defending religious freedom, and supporting policies that strengthen the family.

• Pro-life values
• Defense of religious freedom
• Support for marriage and family
• Faith-based community organizations
