OPINION |

by Danette Proctor, Willard

We need Eric Schmitt in Washington, D.C. Washington is a mess and sending another millionaire to the Senate will not clean up the mess.

Working Missourians need a champion in Washington and that champion is Eric Schmitt. Eric comes from a blue-collar family and understands the concerns many of us face under a Washington controlled by Democrats that has given us record-breaking inflation. Trudy Busch Valentine has no clue what it is like to live paycheck-to-paycheck. She thinks she can use her family’s millions to buy a seat. In November, we can send her and other elitists a message. We have had enough of the millionaires and billionaires who think they are better than us because of the size of their bank accounts.

We must send Eric Schmitt to the Senate because he has lived the struggles many are experiencing now and will be our champion in Washington.

Danette Proctor is the Chair of the Greene County Republican Central Committee.
