In the mail from a PAC propping up Dan Houx (r) in the 31st Senate District primary:
A nice reminder that right wingnuts have controlled the Missouri General Assembly for over twenty years.
“…funding the National Guard at our Southern Border”
What did Arkansas ever do to us?
“Protecting our kids from liberal indoctrination in our schools”
He doesn’t want them to read, you know, books.
“Defend the 2nd Amendment and voted repeatedly to guarantee Missourians right to conceal and carry”
….In an average year, 1,288 people die and 2,312 are wounded by guns in Missouri. Missouri has the 8th-highest rate of gun violence in the US….
….In Missouri, the rate of gun deaths increased 70% from 2011 to 2020, compared to a 33% increase nationwide. The rate of gun suicides increased 37% and gun homicides increased 130% compared to a 12% increase and 70% increase nationwide, respectively….
“Balanced Missouri’s Budget…”
Missouri’s budget is balanced every year. It has to be. It’s a constitutional requirement.
“Keeping boys out of girls’ sports”
Yeah, like we’re all really worried about that.
“Made Missouri the most-pro-life state in the nation and defunded Planned Parenthood”
All by himself. Uh, Planned Parenthood provides health care services to women. Cutting that access is nothing to brag about.
There is no such thing as a “moderate” republican.
