EDITOR:

When Kansas City planned to place a sewer treatment plant right in our backyard, we felt completely voiceless. Because we lived just outside the city limits, official after official ignored our concerns, telling us we weren’t their problem.

Will not support tax increases

Nathan Willett changed that.

Even though we weren’t his constituents at the time, Nathan didn’t see a boundary line – he saw Missourians who were being treated unfairly. He didn’t just send an email or take a phone call; he drove out to our property, walked the land with us, and truly listened to how this project would affect our lives. Because Nathan chose to step up and represent us when no one else would, the city eventually chose a location that respected the needs of everyone involved.

That is the kind of integrity we need in Washington. Nathan Willett has proven he will fight for the “little guy,” regardless of the zip code on their mail. He is a leader who shows up, listens, and delivers results for all Missourians. He has my full trust and my vote for U.S. Congress.
