Journal of the House JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE First Regular Session, 98th GENERAL ASSEMBLY SIXTH DAY, THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 2015 The House met pursuant to adjournment. Speaker Diehl in the Chair. Prayer by Msgr. Robert A. Kurwicki, Chaplain. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust. (Psalm 91:2) O God of us all, we come to You with joyful hearts and reverent minds realizing that this is a great time in which to be alive. Your Spirit helps us to live with high hopes, fruitful faith, and glorious goals that we may move onward and forward to a greater state and a better country. Strengthen our faith in You that when differences come we shall not fail, when difficulties burst upon us we shall not falter, and when diffidence rolls over us we shall not allow ourselves to give way to frustration or give up to futility. Let us say and believe You are our refuge and strength; in You will we trust. Help us to have the courage to stand up for the rights of all, for the freedom of all, and for the good of all. May we so think and speak and act that Your blessing may be upon us this day and all our days. And the House says, "Amen!" The Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was recited.

Speaker Richardson in the Chair. Prayer by Reverend Monsignor Robert A. Kurwicki, Chaplain. Let us follow after the things which make for peace. (Romans 14:19) Eternal God, Our Father, in whom our parents and grandparents trusted and were never let down, bless us this day as we bow before You in loving memory of those who laid down their lives for our country. We thank You for men and women in time past who gave themselves that we might have freedom in our State, and we are grateful for those in time present who are giving themselves that liberty may continue to live in our land and in the world. That these may not have lived and died in vain we pray You to unite our people in one great purpose to preserve the principles of freedom, justice, and goodwill, and by Your grace may we learn to live together in the spirit of true unity. Pour out Your spirit upon us in such measure that we may turn from division to peace, from poverty to plenty, and from hate to love, through Your power and love.

  • 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.

KIRKPATRICK ROOM 208 STATE INFORMATION CENTER (573) 751-2379 (573) 751-4936 Dear Fellow Missourians, We’re blessed to live in a state and nation where, every two years, we have the opportunity to go to the polls and elect the people we want to represent our interests in state and federal government. We count on them to work be- yond party lines to deliver results that will improve our daily lives. Our democracy works best when our leaders not only ad- vocate for our interests, but also respond to our concerns. The best way to hold our elected representatives account- able is to contact them and make your voice heard. There are now more ways than ever to keep tabs on your government. Within these pages, you will find names and contact information for your elected offi- cials. I also encourage you to visit www.TheMissouri Channel.com to listen to recordings of legislative debate in the Missouri General Assembly. As your secretary of state, I’m committed to providing outstanding service to Missourians. So please, contact my office if you need information about the resources we offer or have ideas on how we can serve you better. Sincerely, Jason Kander Secretary of State Table of Contents Page Executive and Legislative Officers . 2 State Executive Officers .................................. 3 Missouri Senatorial Districts Map ........................... 4 State Senators by District................................
