ISSUES & PRIORITIES
Common-Sense Solutions. Local Values. A Stronger Missouri.
🇺🇸 Economy, Jobs, & Cost of Living
Families are being crushed by inflation and rising costs. We need a federal government that helps working people instead of making life harder.
My Priorities:
• Reduce federal spending that fuels inflation and drives up prices.
• Support small businesses with lower taxes, fewer unnecessary regulations, and smart incentives.
• Expand workforce development and trade programs so Missourians can find high-paying careers without crushing debt.
🚧 Border Security & Legal Immigration
America needs a secure border and a functioning legal immigration system—both can exist at the same time.
My Priorities:
• Fully fund border patrol, modern surveillance, and physical barriers where appropriate.
• Stop the influx of drugs and human trafficking hitting the Midwest.
• Support legal immigration focused on skilled workers, students, and those who follow the law.
🌾 Agriculture & Rural Missouri
Our farmers keep this state running. Washington needs to stop treating rural America like an afterthought.
My Priorities:
• Protect family farms from federal overreach and unnecessary EPA burdens.
• Strengthen crop insurance and disaster relief transparency.
• Improve rural broadband so every community can compete in a digital economy.
🚓 Public Safety & Crime
Communities deserve to feel safe—period.
My Priorities:
• Support law enforcement with resources, training, and mental-health support.
• Crack down on violent crime and fentanyl trafficking.
• Promote responsible gun ownership and ensure background systems work effectively.
🎖️ Veterans & Military Families
Missouri has a long history of service, and Washington owes our veterans more than speeches.
My Priorities:
• Cut VA wait times and modernize outdated systems.
• Expand mental-health and crisis services for veterans.
• Ensure military families have stable housing and access to quality healthcare.
❤️ Healthcare Access & Affordability
Healthcare shouldn’t bankrupt a family.
My Priorities:

• Protect individuals with pre-existing conditions while lowering costs through competition.
🏫 Education, Students, & Workforce
Parents and students deserve fairness, opportunity, and real-world preparation.
My Priorities:
• Support parents’ rights and keep political extremism out of classrooms.
• Promote trade schools, community colleges, and apprenticeships.
• Encourage STEM, cybersecurity, and technical training—fields that power Missouri’s future.
⚡ Energy, Infrastructure, & Reliability
Missouri needs reliable power, strong roads, and modernized systems—not grandstanding.
My Priorities:
• Support an all-of-the-above energy strategy: coal, natural gas, nuclear, and renewables.
• Modernize infrastructure without wasting taxpayer money.
• Protect rural electric cooperatives and keep energy rates stable.
🏛️ Government Accountability & Fiscal Responsibility
People are tired of a Washington that wastes money and avoids responsibility.
My Priorities:
• Support balanced-budget reforms.
• Oppose pork-barrel spending and unfunded mandates.
• Increase transparency around where federal dollars actually go.
🗽 Individual Rights & Personal Freedom
Government should empower people—not control them.
My Priorities:
• Protect First and Second Amendment rights consistently and responsibly.
