MISCHA’S MISSION

Putting Children and Families First:
Mischa is proudly pro-life and believes that every child—born and unborn—deserves protection, opportunity, and hope. As the former Director of Arkansas’ Division of Children and Family Services and Secretary for Youth and Families, she has spent her career fighting for the well-being of children and strengthening families across the state.
Mischa will champion policies that support children at every stage of life—from early childhood development and children’s mental health reform to strong educational opportunities that prepare them for the future. She supports Governor Sanders’ educational reforms and efforts to empower parents through school choice, ensuring that every child—regardless of zip code—can access the learning environment that fits them best.
Mischa also understands that strong families are the foundation of a strong Arkansas. She will advocate for policies that protect children and families from undue government intrusion and reinforce the importance of safe, stable, and nurturing homes.

Strong Infrastructure, Strong Arkansas:
Mischa believes that building and maintaining strong infrastructure is a core function of government—essential not only to local communities, but also to public safety and national security. Safe roads, reliable bridges, secure energy systems, clean water, and modern communication networks are the backbone of a strong, prepared, and connected Arkansas.
As a conservative, Mischa supports smart, responsible infrastructure investments that respect taxpayer dollars and deliver real results. Whether it’s ensuring that families can travel safely, businesses can grow, or first responders can do their jobs effectively, strong infrastructure protects our people and strengthens our future.
It’s not about big government—it’s about strong, safe communities and a resilient Arkansas.

STRONGER COMMUNITIES, SAFER COMMUNITIES:
Mischa is committed to ensuring that every Arkansas community is safe and secure. She will champion common-sense policies that strengthen public safety, support law enforcement, and protect neighborhoods from crime and violence. Mischa believes that when families feel safe, communities thrive—creating the foundation for economic growth, strong schools, and a higher quality of life for all.

BRING COMMON SENSE TO OUR GOVERNMENT:
Mischa will work with her fellow Republicans to rein in wasteful spending and ensure that government stays focused on what matters most—protecting public safety, maintaining strong infrastructure, and caring for our most vulnerable, especially children. She believes in a lean, efficient government that lives within its means and delivers real results for Arkansas families. By prioritizing what matters most, Mischa will support continued efforts to lower the tax burden on Arkansas families.

ECONOMIC GROWTH & OPPORTUNITY:
Mischa will champion pro-growth policies that reduce unnecessary regulations, cut red tape, and create an environment where Arkansas businesses—large and small—can thrive. She believes that government should be a partner, not a barrier, to innovation and job creation. By supporting local entrepreneurs, attracting new investment, and promoting workforce development, Mischa will help build a stronger economy for every Arkansas family.

PROTECTING ARKANSAS’ NATURAL HERITAGE:
Mischa is proud to support Arkansas’ natural beauty and the outdoor economy that defines our state’s unique way of life. She supports the work of Arkansas’ First Gentleman, Bryan Sanders, in making the state a top destination for outdoor recreation and tourism. Mischa will advocate for policies that grow our tourism industry, support small businesses tied to outdoor recreation, and ensure that future generations can enjoy the Natural State.
