October 13, 2010

ST LOUIS, MO – The Missouri Club for Growth PAC (MOCFG PAC) announced thirteen endorsements today in advance of the general election on November 2nd.  “In these challenging times we need to send true leaders to Jefferson City to fight for jobs and responsible fiscal policies.  We are proud to support these outstanding candidates.” said MOCFG PAC Treasurer Melanie Abrajano.

To obtain an endorsement from the MOCFG PAC, candidates were required to submit a detailed questionnaire outlining their position on issues such as taxes, healthcare, state sovereignty, and overall approach to economic growth and job creation.  Every candidate that filed for state office with the Missouri Ethics Commission was sent a questionnaire.  After a thorough review of all returned questionnaires, and an extensive interview process with the candidates, the MOCFG PAC Board of Directors voted on each race.

Founding principles of the Missouri Club for Growth include:

  • Lowering the tax burden on Missouri families
  • Reducing wasteful spending in Missouri
  • Protecting individual property rights
  • Reducing onerous regulations on Missouri businesses
  • Promoting economic freedom
  • Increasing transparency in education spending

The diverse MOGFG PAC Board includes former State Treasurer Sarah Steelman, former State Representative Robert Behnen of Kirksville, Columbia businessman Larry  Schuster, Kansas City Attorney Bev Randles, and Joplin businessman Mike Crumbliss.
