Ann Wagner, Congresswoman Missouri's 2Nd District

Ann Wagner’s career is both deep and broad in service to her hometown, state and nation with more than 25 years of work in the private sector, community and public service, and the political arena. The 2nd District of Missouri has always been home for Ann. It is where she and her husband of over 30 years, Ray, grew up, went to school, raised their children, work, volunteer and go to church. This community has given her extraordinary opportunities to make a difference. At an early age, Ann started working in the family business, a retail carpet store called Carpetime in Manchester. Working beside her parents she learned the value of a dollar, a strong work ethic, honesty, integrity, and that government should stay off the backs and out of the way of hard-working Americans trying to make a living. Ann then took that experience to the University of Missouri-Columbia and received her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with an emphasis in Logistics. After college, Ann went to work in the private sector and held management positions at Hallmark Cards in Kansas City and Ralston Purina in St. Louis. Ann’s most important job, however, has always been as a wife, mother, and now grandmother. Ann and Ray have three children: Raymond, Stephen, and Mary Ruth. Ann’s public service began at the grassroots level, serving for nine years as a local committeewoman in Lafayette Township before moving on to chair the Missouri Republican Party. She also served as Co- Chairman of the Republican National Committee during the first term of President George W. Bush. In 2005, following a nomination by President Bush and confirmation by the U.S. Senate, Ann was sworn in as the 19th U.S. Ambassador to Luxembourg by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. She served as U.S. Ambassador for four years before returning to her home in Ballwin, Missouri. Ann is Vice Ranking Member of both the House Financial Services Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee. .

Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2017 Remarks at a National Republican Congressional Committee Dinner March 21, 2017
Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2017 Remarks at a National Republican Congressional Committee Dinner March 21, 2017 The President. Thank you very much. Thank you. Wow. You know, I asked how many people would be here tonight. They said a couple of hundred. It was just, like, a little fundraiser. [Laughter] They didn't say you broke—23 years, you broke the alltime record tonight, $30.1 million. And broke it by $10 million, that's not so close. So congratulations. We're going to have a great 8 years together. [Laughter] And Rasmussen just came out with a very good poll; you'll be liking this poll. This poll is good. Yes, we're going to do a good job. More importantly, we're going to do a great job, and then, we're going to win it the old-fashioned way; we're just going to win it. And I want to thank everybody. This is a lot more than 200 people. This is a hell of a big room. [Laughter] Gee! That's far back. Can you see over there? [Laughter] See, I would have gotten rid of these columns, actually, but—[laughter]. That's being a construction man. But that was a long time ago; they didn't do that. Well, it's an honor to address you tonight and thank each and every one of you for your role in helping to build, sustain, and grow a truly strong Republican Party again. In this effort, we will be working hand-in-hand with our House leadership team—and I've really gotten to know them, and they are winners, and they are terrific people—terrific people: Speaker Paul Ryan, Leader Kevin McCarthy, Majority Whip Steve Scalise, and Conference Chairwoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers.

A Resolution Calling for Action to Prevent Future Highway Flooding of Interstate 70 in St
Sponsored by: Council as a Whole Resolution No. _____16-02 A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR ACTION TO PREVENT FUTURE HIGHWAY FLOODING OF INTERSTATE 70 IN ST. PETERS WHEREAS the severe rains in late December 2015 resulting in high Dardenne Creek flood levels; and WHEREAS, the high volume of water flooded a portion of Interstate 70; and WHEREAS, this necessitated the closing of a large stretch of Interstate 70 for two days and detouring high volumes of traffic through other primary roadway systems in St. Charles County causing significant traffic and commuting problems for our residents; and WHEREAS, the recently updated and adopted FEMA floodplain maps show that the portion of Interstate 70 at Dardenne Creek is submerged during the 100- year flood event and it is probable that the highway will be closed again in the future due to flooding; and WHEREAS, Interstate 70 is a vital part of the Federal Interstate System and an intercontinental highway linking our nation coast to coast through the State of Missouri, and is vital for commerce and the moving of goods and people. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNTY COUNCIL OF ST. CHARLES COUNTY, MISSOURI, AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The St. Charles County Council hereby requests the Missouri Department of Transportation and the Army Corps of Engineers to find a long-term solution to the flooding and closure of Interstate 70, including the area downstream from Interstate 70, by the waters of Dardenne Creek and that our Federal and State elected public officials be asked to assist in having these agencies work together on a solution that will avoid such a future disruption.

Congressional Catering: How Big Food and Agricultural Special Interests Wield Influence in Congress and Undermine Public Health
Congressional Catering: How Big Food and Agricultural Special Interests Wield Influence in Congress and Undermine Public Health June 2015 Key Findings A shocking one-half of the American population suffers from diet-related chronic disease and even more Americans are imperiled by medical risk factors for those diseases. Various editions of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans have been largely consistent in their advice for decades – emphasizing diets higher in fruits, vegetables and whole grains, and lower in added sugars, sodium, trans fat, and saturated fats. Yet the American diet remains largely unchanged. The 2015 expert report by the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC) indicates that a full one-third of our national diet is still comprised of burgers, sandwiches, pizza, dessert, sweet snacks, and sugary beverages. Finally, progress to support Americans’ abilities to follow the Dietary Guidelines advice is underway: • The 2015 DGAC, a 14-member committee of independent scientists convened by the Departments of Agriculture and Health and Human Services (“the Departments”) developed a robust set of public health recommendations grounded in science and published them for public comment in preparation for the Departments’ forthcoming 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). • The meals, snacks, and drinks sold in schools are improving as a result of updated standards based on the DGA and many companies have voluntarily agreed not to market foods to children that do not meet nutrition standards based on the DGA. • In June 2015, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced limits on partially hydrogenated oil (PHO), the main source of artery-clogging, industrial trans fat, as strong evidence demonstrates it is no longer generally recognized as safe.
