Early life and education

Eigel grew up in Dayton, Ohio and holds an MBA from Webster University.[5] He attended Purdue University from 1995-1999 and received a BS in industrial engineering.[6]

Legislative tenure

In 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Eigel called for a special session of the Missouri legislature to implement legislation to prevent private-sector companies from requiring COVID-19 vaccinations for staff and customers.[7]

Gubernatorial campaign

In 2023, Eigel's BILL PAC was accused of using deceptive tactics to raise money for the 2024 Missouri gubernatorial election. Emails that prominently featured Donald Trump solicited small donations nationwide.[8] As of October 2023, almost 99% of donations to BILL PAC came from out of state.[9]

Eigel attracted wide attention for a video involving a flamethrower and burning cardboard boxes with references to book burning. He has also criticized current governor Mike Parson for calling for civility in politics.[10]

In 2024, Eigel and other Republicans opposed an amendment that would allow abortion in cases of rape or incest.[11] Eigel stated that Democrats wanted to "bring back the institution of abortion so that kids can get abortions in the state of Missouri. A 1-year-old could get an abortion under this."[12][13] He then said the proposed amendment "doesn't address" the "institutions of rape or of incest".[14]
