During Mondays inauguration at the Missouri State Capitol, Missouri State Treasurer Scott Fitzpatrick was sworn-in for a four-year term by Barry County Associate Judge Johnnie Cox.
The Treasurer was elected November 3 with more votes than any treasurer in Missouri history.
I am grateful for the opportunity to continue serving as Missouris Treasurer, Fitzpatrick said. As a husband and father, a business owner, and now as State Treasurer, I value fiscal responsibility. Over the past two years, I have worked to increase government transparency, to support small businesses, and to help Missouri families save for the future. 2020 was certainly a challenging year, but I am hopeful for Missouris future and I look forward to continuing this important work to ensure that all Missourians are able to thrive.
