“Senator Bean has been a great supporter of agriculture and Missouri’s pork industry. He has been successful in turning his family farm into a successful business, and that same mindset is a great asset at the Capitol, bringing a commonsense approach to growing Missouri’s agriculture industry,” said Laut.
