Biography of Dr. Ross
A New Voice. A Public Servant.
I believe our leaders should serve people — not themselves. That’s why I’m here with the Gena Ross campaign. Missouri deserves better than excuses and silence, and with your help, we’ll achieve that. I'm a conservative because I believe in personal responsibility and freedom, and I'm running for Congress in 2026 because Missouri families need leaders who show up, listen, and solve problems—not those who serve lobbyists in Washington. So, when the time comes, remember to vote for Gena Ross for Congress. Thank you. God bless you, and may God bless the great state of Missouri!
