Vance McAllister Biography

Vance McAllister is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on January 7, 1974 in Oak Grove, Louisiana, United States. Vance Michael McAllister Sr. (born on January 7, 1974) is a Republican ex- member of the United States House of Representatives from Louisiana’s 5th congressional District. He was elected an election in a special runoff on the 16th of November in 2013 to fill the seat left vacant by the fellow Republican Rodney Alexander. One year later, after an infidelity scandal, McAllister placed fourth, with 11.1 percent of the votes, in a primary race for a full term in U.S. House.

Riser highlighted his own experiences that he has gained since 2008 in passing legislation and in the process of preparing his Louisiana state budget as well as delivering services for constituents, but McAllister does not agree. “Look where experience has gotten us. Washington is so disconnected from the 5th District that voters are turning their backs on the establishment,” McAllister is quoted in an interview conducted by reporter from Monroe, Greg Hilburn.

Despite what appeared to be an endorsement of McAllister in 2013, Phil Robertson withdrew his support for the congressman and instead endorsed his own nephew, Zach Dasher. Robertson said that McAllister had told him in 2013 that he stands with God and family, and “two months in he’s messing with some chick.” McAllister said that he was “disappointed” that Robertson is “speaking against the words that he writes about, like forgiveness, when we’re all sinners. … What Phil and I have in common is we believe in the same Lord, and that’s the God of second chances.”

Joining Tarpley in a challenge to McAllister was Monroe Mayor Jamie Mayo, who also ran in 2013, and the Monroe Republican Andrew Harris Brown (born June 1965), an oil and natural gas businessman and the younger son of the late state Senator William Denis “Billy” Brown, III, also of Monroe.

McAllister along with his partner, former Kelly Duncan, whom he got married in 1997, have five children. They live within rural Swartz, Louisiana. McAllister is a member of the North Monroe Baptist Church. He states his choice to stand for Congress as an “prayerful one. Many people make light of my spiritual faith, but that is okay with me. I know the blessing that I have received from the good Lord and the inner peace that comes from being a believer. … I knew there were a number of qualified people in the district to be congressman, but also I realized that I had the time and the financial capability … that maybe [the others] didn’t.”

After his appointment, McAllister retained Alexander’s congressional staff, which was headed by Gregory Adam Terry (born 1980) originally from Harrisonburg in Louisiana and Ruston, Louisiana. McAllister’s swearing in was his first visit into Washington, D.C. McAllister had predicted that he’d tend to take conservative positions most times, however, at times, he might cast a liberal vote in rolls call votes. “Every incumbent ought to be a little nervous. … The 5th District spoke and they [sic] spoke loud and clear. They see that if one of the poorest districts in the country can do it [rebut the party establishment], why wouldn’t one of the most powerful districts in the country do it? “, McAllister said, when he was sworn in to the office in the presence of President John Boehner. McAllister’s guest at 2014’s State of the Union Address was Duck Dynasty’s Willie Robertson.

McAllister is a long-time resident from northeast Louisiana. McAllister was the son of Gene McAllister and Kathy McAllister in Oak Grove, Louisiana. The older McAllister was employed for 42 years at the old International Paper Company mill in Bastrop. McAllister was raised in an isolated community in West Carroll Parish and graduated in 1992 from Forest High School located in Forest, Louisiana, south of Oak Grove. Following graduation, McAllister entered the United States Army where McAllister was a combat medic , and then served an active duty tour within South Korea. Then, he was stationed in Fort Knox, Kentucky. He later was a part of his unit, the Louisiana National Guard and attended the University of Louisiana at Monroe but left to take a job with Mustang Engineering, a company that took him on overseas assignments. He remained with Mustang until he decided and ran for Congress.

McAllister and Riser both oppose the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act signed into law in 2010 by President Obama, but the two differ on how to approach the legislation known as Obamacare. McAllister opposed the United States federal government shutdown of 2013 as a proper method to force the repeal of the measure: “Obamacare is a nightmare, but it’s a reality, and it’s here. [We] have to live with it, we have to make it livable. We have to make it work for the people until one day we [have the votes] to repeal it.” Riser supported the House Republicans’ failed effort to de-fund the Affordable Care Act despite the temporary government shutdown. He supports a balanced budget at the national level, as is required for all the states. McAllister said that he would support a path to citizenship for individuals already in the country illegally. Riser, however, urged that border security be addressed before any other immigration concern. Riser endorsed the House approach of piecemeal immigration reform, rather than the comprehensive route favored by the U.S. Senate.
