Gun Rights
- Excerpt: "I believe in an individual’s right to bear arms."
Job Growth
- Excerpt: "The best way to reach prosperity is for the government to provide an environment where entrepreneurs and workers can thrive. Individual motivation, innovation, and competition are the keys to Missouri’s future."
Taxes
- Excerpt: "I am opposed to out-of-control spending and placing more tax burden on Missourians. Fiscal responsibility has been my guiding principle as assessor of Pettis County and will remain so as state representative."
Role of States

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
