Campaign website

Day stated the following on the Missouri Green Party website:

I'm not them.

My name is Michael Day, and I'm running as a Green Party candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives 5th district seat. I have worked blue collar jobs my whole life, and I believe I would be a great representative of the 5th district.

Why am i running? I believe dark money has completely taken over our government, and our officials no longer represent the people that elect them. It's far past time for change.

As a Green candidate, I pledge to never take any corporate money, or sell out the constituents of the district, and I pledge to make Green initiatives paramount to Missouri's business environment.

We cannot continue this unsustainable approach to the environment. I don't have children myself, but I believe that as a citizen, it's on all of us to try our best to recycle and limit our usage of plastic products and fossil fuels. We owe it to future generations.

I look forward to answering any and all questions that come my way.
