Had a great day with leaders and friends at Clay County Democrats ccDEMScc Winterfest!!
Caught up with KC Mayor Quinten Lucas, Scott Sifton and Lucas Kunce. What a great event with wonderful leaders and great friends! Let’s Get to Work!!
2/26/22
We made sure to make Saturday count for the Charles West for Congress Campaign!!
After a great time at the Clay County Democrats ccDEMScc Winterfest we got to work and made a trip to Brunswick, MO to look at the over 33 miles of Levees that hold back the Missouri, Grand and Chariton Rivers.
These levees protect over 23,000 acres of farmland and have seen multiple breaks in the last several floods that have had a major impact on the livelihoods of the residents and farmers in the surrounding communities!
These breaks cost the levee district’s hundreds of thousands of dollars in cleanup alone and then they depend on the Corp of Engineers and FEMA for rebuilding and funds to support the system.
The flood of 2019 saw a major impact on these levees and the levee district along with the Corp of Engineers has worked tirelessly to make the much needed repairs but FEMA has fallen behind on the money that is so desperately needed for the repairs and well-being of the residents and farmers.
I promise that when I get elected I will work as hard as possible to make sure these issues are brought to light and FEMA and other government agencies are doing what’s needed to correct these issues!!
Saturday turned into a (15) hour marathon of traveling across the district, meeting with fellow Democrats, Leaders, Constituents and doing the work that’s so desperately needed for our district.
2/22/22
It’s official and I’m ready for the battle ahead!

It was great being able to catch up with Glenn Kage and answer a few questions about my campaign. I look forward to the next one!
Last night Labor Front proudly kicked off the 2022 election cycle with a table talk discussion with Charles West, candidate for Missouri's 6th Congressional District. We were able to cover many issues and Charles did a stellar job representing his point of view on issues that affect not just union members but all of Missouri's workers.
I would like to thank Charles for taking time out of his busy schedule and be the first Labor Front Table Talk series candidate of the 2022 election cycle!
