Biography
Clay, who has worked as a paralegal and a real estate agent, served more than 17 years in the Missouri House and Senate. In 2000 he ran to replace his retiring father, Rep. Bill Clay, who represented parts of St. Louis for 32 years. When Missouri lost a congressional district after the 2010 census, Clay prevailed in a 2012 primary over Democrat Rep. Russ Carnahan, whose neighboring St. Louis district was eliminated.
His biggest donors are public sector unions. He has also received significant money from building trade unions, attorneys and law firms, industrial unions and the real estate sector. Research more about the 2016 campaign donations to Clay.
