Summary
I’m working on a tax credit plan to support Missouri’s family farms—but I’m not giving the details away just yet. This blog post puts a public timestamp on my leadership and shows rural Missourians where my priorities are.

Our family farms are the beating heart of Missouri’s economy—but too many of them are struggling to keep the lights on, keep the land in the family, and keep food on the table for the rest of us.
As your next Congressman, I’ve been working on a farm tax credit plan designed to ease the burden on family farmers and help protect Missouri agriculture for future generations. I’m keeping the specifics locked down for now—for a very good reason.
Too often, good policy ideas get hijacked by politicians who had nothing to do with creating them. This post is here as a digital marker: a public timestamp to show who was working on this first. Remember this date: July 31, 2025. If others start parroting this idea later, you’ll know exactly where it came from.
This policy is built by and for rural Missourians. It’s not about giveaways. It’s about fairness—helping farmers who work hard every day and ensuring our food systems stay local, strong, and rooted in family-owned land. No handouts for corporate megafarms. No favors for foreign land buyers. No patience for lobbyists writing the rules.
It’s about time we had someone in Congress who’s actually from here—someone who knows the difference between a tractor and a talking point. I’m that person, and I’m not waiting around to bring real change home.
If you’re ready to fight for Missouri’s farmers with someone who’s lived that life, I’d be proud to have your support.
