DEI Defunding Update: Yesterday, I filed HB2365 to complete what we started last year - prohibiting taxpayer $’s from funding DEI in state bureaucracy. This will defund DEI & prevent the state from incentivizing the private sector to use DEI, in order to win state contract bids.

The principle purpose of gov’t? Easy question, right? Well….Do you want a state senator who fumbles the question or one who is anchored to the fundamentals of our constitutional republic? And yes, it’s an easy question! …to preserve your liberties, your God given rights!

To the “Republicans aren’t Pro-Life they’re just Pro-Birth” crowd…Your nonsensical accusation falls on its face every time I open MO’s budget. Take your lies elsewhere. Yesterday, we met to discuss the $16B+ budget for DSS. That’s Family Support Div., Children’s Div., Youth

Once again, Charlene is misinformed or is lying. CD6 did not vote to remove school choice. We did not vote to reject ESA’s or Educational Tax Credits. We did not vote to reject public charters. We did support DESE reforms and parental oversight of their child’s education.

Let’s see, Leftists have drawn from John Dewey for over 80 years, along with many other theorists whose ed philosophy have done damage to the quality of education…And then there's the AFT & NEA, along with leftists Ed Departments ‘molding’ the minds of aspiring teachers.

Hey, Doug. Which “leftists” have been in complete control of Missouri schools for two decades? Which “leftists” have staffed DESE? Which “leftists” have defunded every school in this damn state and paid teachers poverty wages? Which, you insufferable liar?

So very pleased with the effort of the kids within our church…They helped to raise enough money to provide over 4,000 meals for impoverished children! It’s such a joy to serve within a context where we can teach about charitable generosity.

…Feel free to leave, but remember we’ll continue to take your money and use it to further our nonsense. 🤯 They’re blind to their own foolishness. If schools would focus on teaching core & specialized disciplines w/o socially charged woke indoctrination, they wouldn’t have

When you've negotiated with Democrats, for so long, enjoying comfortable consensus, your desire to maintain that consensus kills your interest to lock arms with actual Republican ideals. When consensus drunk leadership fears upsetting Democrats, they can’t tolerate convictional

This is where we’re at in the effort to eradicate woke DEI from state bureaucracy. Both the budget language and HB1196 (Prohibiting DEI Statements for hiring decisions on state university campuses) have brought significant attention to a real problem. As a result, DNR adjusted
