Well, things did not break the way that we wanted tonight. I want to thank all the people who donated their time, energy, and money to my campaign. I would especially like to thank my wife and family who supported me. Thank you to those who came out and voted.

I would like to congratulate my opponent, Dan Stacy. Although we may not agree on many issues, I believe in the integrity of our democratic election process. The people have spoken and we move forward. May he do what is good for the people of District 31 and of Missouri.

Lastly, as I reflect on the past several months, I see tonight not as an ending, but as a beginning. There is still more work to be done. More on that to come.

The biggest problem with our government is that those we elect have forgotten who they work for.

The results in Kansas yesterday show us the overwhelming majority of people support a woman's right to choose what happens with her own body.

Republicans have long proven that they have no problem with wealth redistribution. It just depends on who you give that wealth to. Money to the richest among us is labelled as "incentives", yet when given to the economically disadvantaged, it is "socialism" and those who use those programs are demonized as "welfare queens"

In 1980, President Reagan, proposed "Trickle Down Economics". The idea was that the government would give tax breaks to the upper class and subsides to corporations. They in turn would shower money down from the veranda of their gilded towers to the masses and this would spur the economy on.

What happened? They hoarded the money. They used it to buy lobbyists to reduce THEIR tax burden, Corporations gave money to their boards and CEOs and kept wages for the working classes low. They hid it in offshore accounts. Then they convinced people that inheritance taxes were bad, so that they could pass it on to their children. This did not spur our economy, it stalled it.

Maybe it is time we tried "Bubble Up Economics". We increase wages, we create subsidies for the lower and middle-classes - hardworking families that are just trying to make ends meet. We invest in healthcare, so people don't have to go bankrupt over a health crisis. We try to eliminate food scarcity. Heavens forbid that people spend the money on such luxuries as housing, food, and healthcare.

This would encourage spending and reinvesting in our communities and local businesses.

Only weeks after overturning Roe, almost 200 Republican Reps signaled their intent to overturn Griswold v. Connecticut by voting against HB 8373 which codifies the right to contraception access.

When you have a government that can take voting rights from felons and then decide that it is a felony to speak out against the government - it is not only a slippery slope into fascism, it is the express elevator.
