Rue is the president and general manager of Littleton & Rue Funeral Home and Crematory.
He ran for his first elected office in 2017, winning a seat on the Springfield City Commission. He is also part of the Springfield Rotary and was a past board member of the Greater Springfield Partnership.
Rue is embarking on his second term as commissioner and first as assistant mayor. He said that he had sought reelection because he believes that the city has made many steps and he wanted to continue to be part of the decision-making process.
As assistant mayor, Rue said that he will be able to learn more from longtime mayor Copeland.
Moving forward, Rue said that he wants to focus on bringing economic opportunities to Springfield as well as work with public and private organizations in order to save tax payers money.
