Adam Schnelting

Adam Schnelting (born 1985)[citation needed] is a Republican member of the Missouri House of Representatives.

Schnelting ran unopposed in the August 2018 primary, then defeated Democrat Peggy Sherwin in the November general election.

[7] Due to state redistricting, Schnelting was moved to District 69,[8] where he again faced DeVoto in the 2022 election, defeating her by a larger margin than in 2020.

[16] Schnelting sponsored legislation that some critics say would diminish oversight measures on unlicensed schools placed by HB 557, passed in 2021.

[18] The board would give priority membership to Missouri Association of Christian Child Care Agencies, an association critics say is linked with Agape Boarding School, a private and unlicensed school whose abuse allegations contributed to passage of the 2021 bill.

[20][21] Schnelting has attempted to pass legislation through both House and Senate to allow concealed carry on public transit.
