Issue Position: Keeping Our Neighborhoods Safe

Issue Position

As your next State Senator, John will engage police departments and prosecutors to find out what they need to keep our neighborhoods safe. John understands that keeping our community safe is a joint effort of not only getting criminals out of our neighborhoods but working with the Jackson County Prosecutor to keep them out.

In 2011 John was able to secure funding for shotspotter technology in the House of Represntatives Budget Committee. This equipment can pinpoint where gunshots are fired which can lead to a faster response time. These ideas as well as a working relationship with law enforcement have made John a leader on fighting crime in the House of Representatives. Electing John would ensure we have a proven crime fighter in the Missouri Senate fighting for us.
