Reedy would like to focus on job creation and being a voice for Missouri agriculture. Reedy stated, “I am running for State Representative so I can take the knowledge and experience I gained at the county level to Jefferson City. Often times, decisions made on the state level have a major impact on our local communities. If elected, I promise to be pro-agriculture, pro-2nd Amendment rights, pro-life and pro-jobs. I will also work diligently to advocate on behalf of our most vulnerable citizens, including our seniors and children.”

“In the coming months, I look forward to meeting and listening to the people of the 57th District. I would consider it an honor to serve this district.”

Reedy has retained Axiom Strategies to consult on his campaign.
