Education I believe every child deserves a top-notch education in a safe environment. I promise to fight for fully funded public schools and an increase in teachers’ pay. Wages / Job Benefits As your state representative, I will always fight for the freedom to organize and collective bargain for our hardworking Missourian work force. I will fight all attempts to weaken our great union organizations. Abortion / Contraception Missouri was one of the first states to immediately sign into law an abortion ban for essentially all cases. This extreme, draconian reproductive law is not the majority view of Missourians. I promise as state representative, I will work to bring sensible reproductive rights back to Missourians. Defense / Veterans Those who have given so much to our country and the families of these veterans and current service members, deserve the very best Missouri can offer them. They should have the best healthcare, post-military employment opportunities, and community support for their families. I am inspired by their sacrifice for our nation and I promise to work across the aisle to ensure that military families and our veterans have access to all the tools they need for a healthy, bright future.
