Barry County Republican Central Committee rallies supporters

Alex Bryant, who has tossed his hat into the ring for a House of Representatives 7th Congressional District seat, spoke at Friday’s Barry County Republican Central Committee Rally in Cassville. His values include pro-life and finding every child a safe and permanent home rather than death by abortion, that criminals will continue to possess guns regardless of how many gun restrictions the government could implement, and that individuals should have the opportunity to educate themselves on matters in order to make the best decisions for themselves and their families.
