Ballotpedia survey responses

Mike McCaffree completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by McCaffree's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- I believe in our public schools and will work hard to make sure they have the resources and support to be successful. Our public shools are the backbone of the communities and they give young people from all economic backgrounds the basic skills and knowledge they need to be successful. I will work hard to make sure our Career Technical Education schools in the district get the funding and support they need to continue to provide hands on training in fields like nursing, construction, agriculturen welding, culinary arts, business, engineering, and automotive.
- We need more affordable housing in the district. In my job as a Realtor I see daily the lack of supply of good middle class affordable homes. We need to build more one level basic ranch style homes that people can afford. We need more of these homes for elderly Missourians in the District who have mobility problems and can't access washer and dryer in basement for example. I will work with our Government loan programs like FHA, USDA, and VA to create incentives for builders to build more homes like this and create jobs and increase the supply which will help our housing affordability issue.
- We need to cool down the partisan rhetoric in the country and remember we are all Americans and are all in the same boat. Both Democrats and Republicans are concerned about the state of our Democracy but have different concerns about the causes. I will listen to both sides and do my best to represent people from both sides of the political aisle.
