I appreciate the feedback. I can’t run a successful campaign or be a beneficial lawmaker unless I listen to the people.

Excuse me? No one is going to jail for refusing a vaccine. Thank you for demonstrating, in one sentence, why I shouldn’t vote for you. Yikes.

I do apologize. This was just one design and I will make sure future ones are less straining

Letting people decide whether or not to get a vaccine is Pro-Choice. A vaccine mandate is just as invasive as an abortion ban. I’m vaccinated but I would not tell someone else the have to get the vaccine or they’ll go to jail.

I need a candidate who doesn't put red text on a blue background!

I agree with all of your stances except abortion. You sound like a solid choice. Do you have a website or FB page?

So you're pro-choice but don't support vaccine mandates?

Apologies. We will definitely improve our color palette.

I second this. Arkansas is beautiful and there is so many options, especially if you’re willing to drive 4 hours, you could hit a lot of spots.

I don’t believe the government should control your body whether it be abortions, vaccines, or how many times you see a doctor. I believe that the government has no right to spy on our online presence, phone calls, or texts without a warrant. I will push for a balanced budget and cut spending that doesn’t benefit the American people.

1)We have a yearly pass to the Bass Pro's Wonders of Wildlife and Aquarium which has been perfect for young children. With a one year old, its stroller friendly enough that they have elevators for each area where there are stairs to the next exhibit. ( I wouldnt advise the wrap because you will have to wear your backpack as well and its like 1.5 miles worth of walking, though alot of places to sit all around.)
- The Discovery Center is probably worth it as well. There's also Chesterfield. It's bit pricier for the membership, but there's actually babysitting on site there. (It's similar to a YMCA, though I'd argue much better as more features than the YMCA.)
Battlefield Mall actually has a play area for toddlers that's pretty close to the food court. There's seating right on the wall of the play area with charging outlets so you can bring your laptop and phone with you if needed while eating and keeping an eye on your little one.
- Parks. Lots of actually really great parks in Springfield which surprises me considering how low property taxes are around here. (Shocking to us having recently moved from Illinois.)
People have already mentioned itty bitty city, jungle gym, and jump mania, but Id seriously look at some of the parks. Nathaniel Greene stroll gardens has alot of heavily shaded gardened areas that are free and a Japanese stroll garden thats a couple bucks. There's actually alot of gardens there and it initially surprised me.
Wilson-Rutledge is an interesting park that is almost a very small zoo/petting zoo with various activities depending on the time of year and a play area. I'd highly recommend it for young kids and its pretty stroller friendly. There's also the Jordan Valley park, just watch out in that area for tweakers/meth addicts who might accost you.
- This may surprise you but.... Wire Road Brewery - on the southeast side of town - which also is a hybrid coffee shop. If you want to grab a drink at any point - or coffee, you can bring your kid with you. Id advise a stroller, but their inside is nice and the outside is really good too. (They dont sell food there so you'd have to bring your own, though they do have some great food trucks there often.)

The only information I can find about you states that you're 24 years old, a singer and YouTube personality? What party are you associated with? What government experience do you have?

Of course! It was a fantastic deal. I think they ran it over the summer. You can check their Facebook for deals and specials :) I don't work for them, just glad to have a clean place to take my kiddo that she loves.

This is valuable information. We've got a 5 month, 5 year old, and 6 year old and are always looking for deals like this. Thanks very much.

GATC closed and the space is going to be a Dublin's Pass. Hard Knox closed and is going to be a Pat's Some-Shit-Or-The-Other.

I strongly support this. I also support COLA being based more locally and not on the nation’s CPI.

Ngl, my kids love those lights on Bass Pro with a passion. This is the kind of light pollution I can and well get behind.

I'm a hard-nosed, right-leaning Libertarian. In your opinion, why should I vote for you?

Two judges in Ohio made getting a vaccine a condition of probation. A federal judge said prisoners refusal to get a vaccine was “practically a disqualifier” in compassionate-release cases. Numerous lawyers who spend their lives reading the law have stated that local, state, and federal governments hold the right to fine and or jail people for refusing vaccine mandates. It’s an overreach of power to tell someone what to do with their bodies. If that forces you not to vote me, that is your right. Have a wonderful day.
