When it comes to the issues, I’m not going to shy away from discussing them or a plan to address them. That goes for parental rights, too.

All across America, like in Virginia, Democrats are pushing for legislation at the state level that will make it a felony for parents to have a say-so in their child’s life - like education or gender.

Well, let me say this: Children are not the property of the state or politicians. They belong to their parents; and NOBODY knows better than mom and dad.

As District Attorney, I will always protect the constitutional rights of parents in DeSoto County and their right to be in the driver seat.

If the radical left take over our federal government (and I pray they don’t) and attempt to trample our constitutional rights, I will defend our God given rights as parents. If they challenge me: They will lose that fight.

Meet Matthew Barton

Matthew Barton grew up in Petal, Mississippi in a blue-collar family. His mother was a director at Tupperware and his father owned the small, family business – Barton Fence Company – where Matthew worked growing up.
