Senator Schnelting has impersonated President Bush in the past, but today he really invokes Bush's "Voodoo economics" with his pseudo-sovereign wealth scheme for Missouri. SJR 95. #moleg

Something going on here. #moleg
State Rep. West reps western St. Charles County and eastern Warren County. Why would he want state money going to City's airport?

GOP politicians in #MOLeg are pushing forward their plan to increase sales taxes and raise costs for 80% of Missourians.
HB1908 allows pregnant people to divorce their spouses. It passed in the Senate today! Now, the bill will head to the Governor's desk for final approval. This ensures survivors can continue healing, regardless of pregnancy status. We are thankful for the work of the #MOLeg in passing this bill.
