Candidate's Comments:
I am 100% pro-life and was proud to sponsor strong pro-life legislation during my first two years in the House. The fight isn't over even though Roe was overturned, and I will continue to be a voice for the voiceless.

Candidate's Comments:
I am 100% against men competing in women's sports, and will be the primary sponsor on the Save Women's Sports Act in Missouri in the upcoming session. I am also firmly against parents "choosing" genders for their children based on their own desires rather than biological fact. (Question 9 was worded a bit weirdly, but if the question is should parents be able to brainwash their kids into thinking they are something they are not with the help of a professional counselor, I'm firmly against that practice)

X
Candidate's Comments:
I sponsored the most comprehensive CRT bill presented in the Missouri House the last two years, and I plan to do the same in the upcoming session. We must stop CRT, DEI and all other forms of indoctrination from invading our schools, and we must make sure that the parent's right to be involved with their children's learning is protected.

17.
Parental Rights for Mental Health Disclosure: Directing schools to inform parents of any mental, physical, or emotional health information and treatment that a child is receiving at school.

Candidate's Comments:
First, our healthcare workers' rights must be protected. Over the last two years we have seen workers lose their entire careers based on whether they chose to take a vaccine or not and that isn't right. Second, parents should be informed about all aspects of their child's schooling. If an investigation is opened up due to concerns about child abuse in the home, a certain level of discretion is of course warranted, but if a child is being counseled because they want to change their gender or are having some other mental health crisis, the parent should be notified immediately.
