Issue Position: Bringing Quality Jobs to Missouri

Issue Position

Failed liberal economic policies have brought our state decades of steady decline, economic stagnation and population loss relative to the rest of the country. During the last decade, we have been 46th in GDP growth, 38th in job growth, and 42nd in overall economic performance. I offer a new way forward, with bold, conservative solutions that will throw out the old Jeff City playbook, put Missourians to work and get government and the trial lawyers out of the way so that we can build a better future for our children and grandchildren.

Action Plan:
*Free Missouri workers to choose whether to pay union dues. I will sign Right-to-Work into law, to increase workplace freedom and draw industry back to Missouri;

*Reduce, reform, simplify and modernize our taxes. I want all Missourians to keep more of their hard-earned paychecks, and I will end giveaways to cronies and lobbyists;

*Reduce the number of costly frivolous lawsuits. I will fight the trial lawyers to bring real judicial and tort reform to Missouri;

*Eliminate purposeless, job-killing regulations. I will freeze all new regulations on day one, except for emergency measures, until we can find out what's working and what's not.
