Jordan J. Herrera is a veteran, attorney, and public servant running for Congress to bring principled, results-driven leadership to Missouri’s 4th District. With over 16 years of service in the United States Air Force and a current role as Assistant Attorney General for the State of Missouri, Jordan’s life has been defined by one unshakable belief: leadership means showing up when it matters most.

Born into working-class hardship and raised in the Midwest, Jordan understands the struggles many families face because he’s lived them. He didn’t come from privilege or power. He came from a place where success wasn’t expected, but where perseverance and public service became a way out and a way forward. From early on, Jordan learned that when systems fail, people must step in. That’s what inspired his service in the military, his pursuit of law, and now, his campaign for Congress.

In the Air Force, Jordan rose through the ranks as a Biomedical Equipment Engineer, leading operations across more than 70 military installations worldwide. He managed multimillion-dollar budgets, oversaw medical logistics and construction, and earned recognition as one of the top leaders in his command. After military service, he accelerated through law school, earning his J.D. in two years and focusing on constitutional law, civil justice, and privacy rights.

Today, Jordan serves the people of Missouri in the courtroom—advocating for fairness, accountability, and access to justice. He brings that same mission-oriented focus to his campaign: standing up for working families, defending civil rights, and challenging a status quo that too often leaves ordinary people behind.

Jordan is running for Congress because he believes this district—and this country—deserve more than politics as usual. His platform centers on economic fairness, housing affordability, student debt relief, public safety reform, and restoring faith in democracy. His message is clear: it’s time to wake up the neighbors—to call our communities into action and demand leadership that delivers.

His campaign is guided by three values: Courage. Collaboration. Transformation.
