FOURTH U.S. CONGRESSIONAL RACE WILL INCLUDE LIBERTARIAN
Fair Play, MO April 3, 2004. By filing on the morning of March 29, 2004, Bill Lower
assured the voters of the Fourth Congressional District that there will be a
Libertarian presence on the November ballot. By being unopposed on the primary
ballot in August, his name will appear alongside the Republican and Democratic
candidates for this office. Lower said, "There is a need for all voters to realize there
are more than two choices when they go to the polls to select their representatives.
Elected officials actually need to pay attention to what the Constitution says the
government can and more importantly, cannot do. It is time for government to treat
its citizens as adults. We need to shed ourselves of the nanny of big government
restriction in our daily lives."
Lower was born in Polk County, and grew up on the family farm just north of Fair Play.
He graduated from Fair Play High School in 1971. He attended Southwest Baptist
University in Bolivar, Missouri for two years, and graduated from the University of
Missouri-Columbia with a BA degree. After working as a foreman for a large painting
contractor in the San Francisco Bay Area in California for five years, he returned to
the Fair Play area. In 1984 he started The Chimney Checker, a chimney sweep
company, of which he currently remains as the owner and operator. The Chimney
Checker services, cleans, and repairs the venting systems of wood, gas, and pellet
burning appliances, and sells wood and gas burning appliances.
Lower currently holds the professional certifications of Certified Chimney Sweep
from The Chimney Safety Institute of America and NFI Woodburning Specialist from
the National Fireplace Institute. He is a long-time member of the National Chimney
Sweep Guild, and former Board member of the Midwest Chimney Safety Council.
Currently Lower serves on the Ethics Committees of both the National Chimney
Sweep Guild and the Chimney Safety Institute of America.
Lower is a Board member of the Friends of the Polk County Library, having previously
served as Vice President and as Treasurer. Lower is also a Board member and the
current Treasurer of the Missouri State Poetry Society. He is a long-time member of
Fair Play First Baptist Church, having served there as Moderator and as Clerk. Lower
is also current chair of the 133rd District State Libertarian Committee, and a member
of the Missouri Libertarian Party Executive Committee.
