Riley Moore

From Riley

America is on the up and up. Despite Joe Biden and the Democrats’ disastrous policies, we’re fighting back - and we’re winning thanks to President Trump’s leadership. That’s why it’s critical we keep proven, conservative leadership in Congress to stand with President Trump and put America First.

I’m running for re-election to Congress because I’ve taken on left-wing special interests in West Virginia and Washington - and I’ve won every time. I stopped the woke corporate agenda, put an end to the backdoor gun registry, fought for school choice, and stood up for our jobs against the radical green energy lobby. Now, I’m asking for your support so I can continue this fight in Washington.

In one term Moore sponsored 24 bills that became law that were aimed at protecting individual freedoms, making West Virginia a better place to do business, and ensuring government works for you.

As Treasurer, Moore went to work with the focus to make the office more modern, transparent, and accountable. In his first term, he reduced the size of the office by 5 percent and returned $15 million to taxpayers. During the 2021 Legislative Session, he championed nine bills which became law. One of his top priorities was the Jumpstart Savings Plan, which allows individuals who wish to pursue a vocation or trade to make tax-free contributions to a savings and investment account that can then be used to help cover business startup costs, equipment, tools, certifications, and licenses needed for their occupation. His inspiration for the bill came from his own experience as a welder.
