Andrew Bailey is an American attorney and politician. A Republican, he has served as Missouri Attorney General since he was appointed by Governor Mike Parson in January 2023.
During his tenure as attorney general, Bailey adopted hardline conservative positions. He has refused to release prisoners after overturned convictions, attempted unsuccessfully to restrict gender-affirming care, unsuccessfully battled initiatives that restored access to abortion in Missouri, and staunchly defended Donald Trump over his legal problems.[1]
