Job Description:

Be a part of something historic and make a difference in Missouri's future by helping us flip House District 100 (Ballwin) BLUE for the first time ever!

Colin is running for State Rep to serve his community as a voice of reason in Jefferson City; to protect the dignity and rights of all people; and to inspire hope that Missouri is an ideal place to live, thrive, and grow.
