Positions
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports restricting abortion funding by opposing government funds being used for abortion services and favors limits on abortion access while allowing some exceptions. Positions emphasize federal non-funding rather than calling for a total ban.
Climate & Energy
The candidate emphasizes economic growth, reducing business regulations, and support for farmers but does not articulate specific climate or energy policies. Public reporting of his campaign appearances shows focus on regulation reform, national security, and agricultural support without clear positions on emissions targets, fossil fuel production, or clean-energy programs. Available public materials therefore do not show a consistent, detailed stance on climate and energy policy.

Public Safety & Guns
Supports gun rights and favors Second Amendment protections while running as a Republican candidate for Missouri’s 6th Congressional District. No explicit support for substantial new firearm restrictions or progressive gun-safety measures was identified in available campaign-facing materials. Positions emphasize gun rights within a law-and-order framework.
News
Jim Ingram is in the news because he is running in the crowded Missouri Senate District 6 Republican primary, where candidates are also trading attacks and raising money. A major issue in the race is Amendment 5, a proposed plan to phase out the state income tax by expanding sales taxes. Ingram is among the candidates weighing in on the measure, which several rivals say is too vague and could shift costs onto working families.
