Today, our appointed Attorney General announced his intention to run for the office as a “law and order” candidate.

It’s a fake label, and we are going to hold him accountable.

A thread.

🚨Under our current Attorney General, the murder rate has increased in Missouri, even though it has decreased nationally. St. Louis, Kansas City, and Springfield all rank high on the list of America’s most violent cities. Children have increasingly become targets.

💰Under our current Attorney General, crooks like @EricGreitens sell our state to the highest bidder, and our Attorney General obstructs Auditor @nicolergalloway's corruption investigation. Accountability means nothing for the powerful.

🔦Under our current Attorney General, fake developers like Paul McKee are stealing taxpayer money by promising to build in our most neglected neighborhoods, pocketing the tax credits, and leaving the properties to rot and destroy our towns.

McKee took $43 million in taxpayer money. Our Attorney General let him off the hook for about $300,000, less than 1% of what WE are owed. And then our Attorney General took a dark money political donation from the target of that investigation. Our government is bought.

🏠Under our current Attorney General, exploitative landlords like T.E.H. Realty keep families in dilapidated apartments and turn off water and heat. Despite calls to do something, including from members of his own party, our Attorney General is nowhere to be found.

📱Under our current Attorney General, robocalls, scam calls, and scam texts are increasing. Instead of holding big telecom to account and protecting Missourians, our Attorney General tells Missouri’s seniors to “be careful.”

🐕Under our current Attorney General, Missouri is still the puppy mill capital of America. Animal abusers get off with a slap on the wrist, even in the most egregious cases.

🚑Under our current Attorney General, over 100,000 of our most vulnerable children have lost their health care coverage under Medicaid because the state government wrongly kicked them out, fired the whistleblower, and refuses to fix the problem.

⭐️Under our current Attorney General, first responders get lip service, and that’s about it. No plan to deal with substance abuse, no plan to coordinate services statewide, no leadership to reduce violent crime, no partnerships with mental health providers.

We don’t have a law and order Attorney General. We have an absent one.

Our government is bought, and we need to flush it.

We can take it back with an Attorney General who is here for us, who shows up, who cares, who takes our voices to Jefferson City, who fights for us.

Let's get one.
