Prayer by Msgr. Robert A. Kurwicki, Chaplain. O Lord, be gracious unto us; we have waited for Thee; be Thou our arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble. (Isaiah 33:2) O Eternal God of us all, who has created us with minds to seek truth, with hearts to feel love, and with wills to choose the right, we bow at the altar of Your presence praying for the establishment of justice and peace in Missouri. Breathe into our hearts and into the hearts of our people the generosity and the genuineness of good living. Save us from unhealthy relationships, break down the walls that separate us, and let pettiness pass away as the power of Your love comes to life within us. We commend our State to You. Make us worthy of the sacrifices which have been built into the foundation of this Capitol. Save us from fools and foolish advice today. From lawlessness and anarchy and selfishness, deliver us. May love, moral values, public integrity, and private character become the blessing of Missouri. Grant that we enter this Saint Patrick’s day with You and may the blessings of Your triune Godhead rest upon us. And the House says, “Amen!” The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.

  • Than 100 State Legislators Join Coalition to Oppose Troubling Tobacco Tax Scheme
    For Immediate Release: Contact: Ronald J. Leone Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2016 573.864.5189 More than 100 state legislators join coalition to oppose troubling tobacco tax scheme. Jefferson City – A large bipartisan coalition of state representatives and senators from across Missouri are encouraging voters to vote “No” on a controversial constitutional amendment that contains several troubling provisions. Today, a total of 19 state senators and 91 state representatives announced their opposition to Amendment 3 and encouraged their constituents to oppose Big Tobacco's scheme. The overwhelming legislative opposition puts the majority of Missouri lawmakers on the same side as many diverse organizations that have come out against Amendment 3 - including groups that historically supported tobacco taxes. “Whether you’re Democrat or Republican, conservative or liberal, there is something in Amendment 3 for everyone and every group not to like,” said Ronald J. Leone, Executive Director of the Missouri Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association (MPCA). Missouri State Senators Opposing Amendment 3 Sen. Dan Brown, R-Rolla Sen.

    LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD 2013 Session of the Missouri General Assembly IS YOUR LEGISLATOR LISTENING TO YOU? This Legislative Scorecard details the voting record of all Missouri General Assembly members on critical public policy issues facing the state. It gives you accurate information about how your legislators have voted. The ten bills selected represent crucial choices on issues important to the quality of life of all Missourians. All but two bills passed both chambers and were sent to the Governor’s desk. So far, at the time of printing, he has already vetoed several of the bills including paycheck deception, circuit breaker tax credit, Sharia law and the gun bill . Votes recorded in this scorecard include such issues as protecting workers’ rights and teacher tenure, pre- serving women’s reproductive rights, protecting against discrimination and preventing tax cuts that hurt the 98 percent. With this scorecard, you have the information to demand that your legislators respond to you, rather than the big money special interests that are trying to dominate our government. This scorecard is just one way to evaluate your representatives. Much of the work concerning bills and amendments is done in committee and many important bills never make it to the House or Senate floor for a vote. ProVote encourages you to use the scorecard as one tool to understand your legislator’s perform- ance. ProVote encourages you to copy this scorecard and distribute it widely.
