Andrew Bailey is an American attorney and politician. A Republican, he has served as Missouri Attorney General since he was appointed by Governor Mike Parson in January 2023.

During his tenure as attorney general, Bailey has refused to release prisoners after overturned convictions, attempted unsuccessfully to restrict gender-affirming care, battled initiatives to restore access to abortion in Missouri, and staunchly defended former President Donald Trump over his legal problems.[1]
