Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I'm running for the Missouri Senate because I believe the people of Franklin and St. Louis counties deserve leaders with integrity. I believe we need more businessmen, not more career politicians in government. I believe we need leaders who stand up for our shared family values, especially defending the unborn…100 percent of the time. And I believe we need leaders who are focused on our future, not their own. I humbly ask for your support.
