I am an architect running for Missouri's 6th District in the US House of Representatives.
The Maryville Town Hall showed why showing up in person matters. I wrote about the biggest takeaways from this night of important questions, real concerns, and shared priorities. I look forward to hosting more of these events in 2026!

Sam Graves oversees transportation and infrastructure in Congress.
The I-169 bridge in his district closed yesterday for major structural issues.
Titles don’t fix bridges. Accountability does.

Today, I’m thinking of those who’ve served and sacrificed for this country. Veterans Day is a reminder that our freedoms are built on their courage. Thank you to every veteran who’s worn the uniform.

It is always a privilege to speak to people passionate about standing up for what matters in north Missouri. Thank you, Bryan and everyone who came out for last night's town hall. It was a thoughtful discussion about our hard working rural communities and some great music!

Special thank you to the Holt County Democrats for hosting a meet and greet, followed by the Holt County Autumn Festival Parade in Oregon! My family had a great time. The bubbles were a huge hit with the kids! It is also worth noting, the Democrat float had a positive reception from the crowd.

In north Missouri we can all directly blame Sam Graves for closing the hospitals!
Rural hospitals in Missouri struggle to turn a profit. Medicaid cuts could force some to close • Missouri Independent

I think this upcoming gerrymandering effort by Republicans is going to backfire! My campaign for the 6th District is all about listening, learning, and building bridges between the rural and urban areas to grow the Democratic Party. See my latest coffee chat: votesmead.com/gerrymanderi...
Gerrymandering and the 6th District - Vote Josh Smead
The Republican Party has decided that short term gains are all that matter, regardless of the long term costs.

Vance says we are only at war with Iran’s nuclear program, not Iran. Does he also think Japan only attacked the US Navy at Pearl Harbor and not America?
JUST IN: VP Vance tells NBC News that the U.S. is "not at war with Iran, we’re at war with Iran’s nuclear program."
