Racheal’s November Recommendation:
YES ON 6
NO on the rest!
First—Always do your own research as you have time.
I always strive to be factual and report things from all sides and as they present themselves.
That does NOT mean I do not care about the NO issues—I think many need to go “back in the oven” for more deliberation and context.
We need to take the time to collect REAL data and ask critical questions now that will help inform us of building a future for ourselves and our children that respects our Missouri values, includes all the facts, and provides protections and accountability in this emerging economical/political landscape.
Always do your research and attend local meetings. Get involved locally and ask good questions. A healthy democracy includes many voices at the table and remembers the basic American principle that United We Stand. Divided We Fall and basic human decency.
Let’s Come together Missouri. We can lead the way for others in the US to follow suite with our vision for a better future, our collaboration, and the courage to have the conversations that matter. Missouri says SHOW ME.
2027 will be the Year of the Budget and Education and Public Health—How can we NOT cut more vital programs and services to our schools, childcare, public health departments, health services and more while also NOT falling prey to make a rushed decision about things we hardly have enough information about.
Big Industry. Big Energy. Big Money. Big Data. Big Tech.
This is worth the time it takes to slow down, gather the research, and set the standard of care. Our children, grandchildren, and many generations ahead will thank us.
Our Public Schools are the foundations of our small rural communities and our real family support systems—With the cuts that happened last year and the unfair division of tax dollars to private schools for education— this is NOT sustainable and it is NOT what Missourians asked for nor is it respecting our US Constitutional rights in most cases. Let’s talk about it!
The predatory overreach of power we are witnessing is not sustainable, so I’ll just quote President Harry S. Truman, who was born in my family town of Lamar MO, who had the guts at least to take accountability and ownership of the decisions he made and remains a lesson learned in history and has been celebrated throughout Missouri.
“The Buck Stops Here”. It has to.
Governance should never be about PARTY politics— it’s was never supposed to be intermingled with Religion and Big Business. It has been made into a spectacle sport with asinine and absurd flags and symbols and throwing absurdities towards one another in front of the world until we’re so divided, we forgot our commonalties and resist unity.
We are Missourians—Missourians deserve for elected officials to SHOW them the numbers, the facts and research, the standard of excellence and integrity in word and deed, and to be given the opportunity to be part of the strategic plans for the future of our beloved state.
We haven’t seen an Independent candidate occupy the MO House since 1916— I am asking my district to help me do that again in MO and be that unbiased voice in a house full of deep division that has brought us to a place where we have exhausted our financial surplus and left our children with nothing but confusion and a higher cost of living than ever before.
It’s time to make a change.
Missourians deserve the BEST standard of care, as all people do, and as an Independent, I believe real change and hope for the future happens locally and with local involvement.
Please consider me for Your Vote this year—-Stay connected and if you don’t like how things are going— you can always just vote the same old way next time!!
I‘m committed to the Independent path which means I will have to collect signatures each time I campaign and ask The People for their vote. (Which is every 2 years)
I couldn’t do this without the help of my family, friends, community and club—I’m so grateful for the outpouring of support that carries the message of PEOPLE OVER PARTY.
Please join me and the 127 Club every month as we unpack the issues and bring education and conversation around the issues that matter to us the most!
