Dear Fellow Missourians: I’m seeking your support for State Auditor to help state, county, and local governments manage tax dollars wisely and achieve better results for citizens.

The Auditor’s office should be a check on unlimited and unaccountable power, not just a political steppingstone.

*Independent oversight and greater accountability.*Listening to all citizens about what matters most to them.*Promoting more efficient, effective, and transparent government.*Helping public institutions deliver measurable results that make Missouri stronger, safer, and more prosperous.

Run the State Auditor's office as an independent watchdog rather than a partisan scorekeeper.

• Check unaccountable power regardless of party.

Audit and correct the state's capital-gains tax calculation before Missouri adopts additional tax policy changes.

• Protect revenue for schools, roads, health care, and public safety.

Create clear channels for residents, local officials, and frontline workers to identify audit priorities, flag failures, and propose solutions.

• Direct audits toward real operational problems.

Create a Missouri Government Accountability Office within the auditor function to review major systems for efficiency and measurable outcomes.

• Examine health care, child care, infrastructure, and public safety.
• Use redesign rather than across-the-board austerity.

Create a Partnership for Performance joining universities, nonprofits, businesses, and local governments.

• Track outcomes, citizen satisfaction, costs, and benefits.
• Expand successful programs and fix or end failing ones.

Protect taxpayer funds through aggressive, independent oversight.

• Identify misuse before it becomes a crisis.

Find waste and mismanagement before they become fiscal or service-delivery crises.

• Use proactive performance review.

Help public agencies improve performance so government works better and costs less.

• Measure outcomes rather than only bookkeeping compliance.
