About this episode

Andrew Bailey is a prominent figure in Missouri politics, currently serving as the state's Attorney General. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in English and later earned a Juris Doctor from the University of Missouri, where he also participated in the Army ROTC. His professional history includes deployment to Iraq, as well the roles of Assistant Attorney General, General Counsel for the Missouri Department of Corrections, and Deputy Counsel in the Governor's Office. Throughout his career, he has focused on protecting constitutional rights, advocating for victims, and addressing violent crime.


Bailey's tenure as Attorney General has been marked by significant legal actions, particularly regarding COVID-19. He led Missouri's lawsuit against the Chinese government for allegedly hoarding personal protective equipment during the pandemic, seeking $25 billion in damages for the state. His office has also actively pursued cases related to consumer protection and First Amendment rights, including recent lawsuits against Starbucks for discrimination and Jackson County for infringing on free speech in counseling settings. As he continues his work, Bailey remains committed to safeguarding Missourians' rights and enhancing community safety.
