Abortion Moon is anti-abortion, citing "putting an end to abortion" in Missouri as one of his top priorities. Prior to its reversal, he did not believe states were obligated to enforce
Roe v. Wade (1973), and has introduced several anti-abortion bills during his time as a state representative, including the Never Again Act (which proposed requiring the
Missouri State Museum to have an exhibit featuring tools used in abortion), (which proposed abolishing abortion in Missouri). In 2017, Moon posted a video of himself butchering chickens on his family farm on social media, chiding his fellow Missouri legislators for not getting to the "heart of the matter" and abolishing abortion in Missouri outright. Governor
Mike Parson has called Missouri's high
maternal mortality rates "embarrassing and absolutely unacceptable." The bill passed without Moon's provision during his absence, and on his return he blocked all Senate action for a full day as retribution. In 2025, Moon stepped down from the Families, Seniors and Health Committee rather than accept an exception for survivors of
rape or
incest on an abortion ban bill filed by
Adam Schnelting.
Against LGBT education and healthcare Mike Moon has introduced bills allowing parents to not have their children participate in
sex education classes, requiring internet service providers to ban "
obscene" websites, prohibiting doctors from providing
transgender children with
gender affirming care or hormonal treatment,
Child marriage When challenged by Rep.
Peter Merideth in April 2023 on arguments related to
transgender youth, Moon defended his 2018 stance on
child marriage in which he opposed legislation that raised the marriage age from 15 to 16, and requires parental consent for older teenagers to marry. After his comments went viral, Moon claimed he did not have enough time to explain his vote and that he does not support adults marrying children. Moon's argument in defense of child marriage in both 2018 and 2023 are an
anecdote about a couple he met in college who married at age 12 as a result of pregnancy and are "still married." In April 2024 and again in March 2025, Moon cast the sole senate vote against legislation intended to completely ban child marriage in Missouri.
Corporate tax Moon wants to eliminate
corporate tax, as well as what he deems as "unnecessary regulation". to change exemptions that allow fertilization distributors to dump waste without effective restrictions.
Religion In 2019, he requested Missouri governor
Mike Parson to not allow the replacement of a statue of the Roman goddess
Ceres to the top of the
Missouri Capitol in
Jefferson City, calling the statue a "false god." ==Awards==
