Missouri Republican Sarah Steelman is set to launch her bid to challenge Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.). The former state treasurer and gubernatorial candidate made the announcement in a post on her website Tuesday evening.
“I want to do my part in fighting for America’s future. That’s why I have decided to run for the United States Senate,” she wrote.
“We need to create an economic climate of growth where families keep their own hard earned income. The country’s total federal debt is at $13.7 trillion and rising. We need to stop the frightening growth of government not only in size but in the power it holds over our lives by cutting government spending; balancing the budget; eliminating needless regulations; and reversing unwanted Obamacare mandates.”
