2024 MO Governor's race: on War & Peace


Bill Eigel: I disdain the ruling elite who send us to war

Q: What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

A: As a USAF veteran who was deployed overseas, I know first hand the struggles that our veterans and active military personnel face. I lost friends. I saw the struggle upon returning home. I disdain the ruling elite who send our men and women to die in their wars, all while doing nothing to ensure their sacrifice is honored. I filed a bill to

  1. eliminate the COVID-19 vaccine mandates for the National Guard,
  2. eliminate the income tax on National Guard signing bonuses, and
  3. ban all foreign ownership of land within 500 miles of our military bases.
As a small business owner, I believe the way to achieve economic growth is to cut taxes and red tape across the board. Government picking winners and losers is NOT the way to do it.

Bill Eigel: Israel is our greatest ally, and we must stand with them

Q: NATIONAL SECURITY: Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?

A: Yes, it is very important. Israel is our greatest ally, and we must stand with them. I sponsored SCR 25 this year in the Missouri Senate. SCR 25 commends Israel for its cordial and mutually beneficial relationship with Missouri and the United States, supports Israel's right to exist, and recognizes Jerusalem as the eternal capital of Israel.
