Thomas Ross is the change we need.
In his mid-thirties, Thomas brings a balanced perspective—young enough to understand a changing world, yet grounded enough to recognize the importance of enduring values. Raised with strong Christian principles, he believes progress should never come at the expense of our moral foundation.
Thomas is a firm defender of the United States Constitution and is committed to upholding it faithfully, without hesitation, in every aspect of public service.
Joplin must protect the values and qualities that make it a strong, desirable community. As our city and state continue to grow, it is important that progress respects the principles that have long defined Joplin and Missouri. Preserving our way of life while welcoming responsible growth is essential to ensuring a strong future for generations to come.
