- Crime is on the rise in our region. Defunding police will not create better policing any more than defunding teachers would improve education. We need to increase support for police training and recruiting. We must restore respect for our men and women in blue and insist that our prosecutors actually prosecute criminals. George will work to put those that prey on our children, elderly and community at large are put behind bars. He believes that in a rush to give criminals rights we have voided victims' rights and that balance must be restored.
- Driven by massive government spending, prices of groceries and other everyday essentials are at a historic high hurting our Missouri families. To attract new businesses and help those struggling he will work to improve the state's business climate by opposing higher job killing taxes, reduce government spending by targeting and eliminating special interest pork barrel spending and cut burdensome and unfair government red tape and regulations. By reducing the cost of services to Missourians and creating a strong business environment, we can better survive the current national economic challenges.
- George supports reforming our education system to better prepare students for the workplace rather than merely preparing them for the next test. He will expand workforce development to help train and retrain people for jobs in high-demand industries. He supports a Parent's Bill of Rights that will require schools to promote transparency and parental involvement in their children's education along with robust school choice so that parents can have their children educated in the setting that is most appropriate for them.
I grew up in a totalitarian state with an educational system permeated by government mandated orthodoxy, indoctrination, conformity, and constant fear of retribution. A huge strength of the U.S. is freedom of speech, freedom of expression, individual liberty, responsibility, meritocracy, diversity, and vigorous debate. I want to make sure that our educational system stays true to those ideals through transparency and robust school choice. Rev.

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.
