  • The Protection of Missouri Governors Has Come a Long Way Since 1881, When Governor Thomas Crittenden Kept a .44-Caliber Smith and Wesson Revolver in His Desk Drawer
    GOVERNOR’S SECURITY DIVISION The protection of Missouri governors has come a long way since 1881, when Governor Thomas Crittenden kept a .44-caliber Smith and Wesson revolver in his desk drawer. He had offered a $5,000 reward for the arrest and delivery of Frank and Jesse James, and kept the weapon handy to guard against retaliation. In less than a year, Jesse James had been killed, and in October 1882, Frank James surrendered, handing his .44 Remington revolver to Governor Crittenden in the governor’s office. In 1939, eight years after the creation of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, several troopers were assigned to escort and chauffeur Governor Lloyd Stark, and provide security at the Governor’s Mansion for the first family following death threats by Kansas City mobsters. Governor Stark had joined federal authorities in efforts to topple political boss Tom Pendergast. Within a year, Pendergast and 100 of his followers were indicted. In early 1963, Colonel Hugh Waggoner called Trooper Richard D. Radford into his office one afternoon. He told Tpr. Radford to report to him at 8 a.m. the following morning in civilian clothes. At that time, he would accompany Tpr. Radford to the governor’s office. The trooper was introduced to Governor John Dalton and was assigned to full-time security following several threats. Since security for the governor was in its infancy, Tpr. Radford had to develop procedures as he went along. There was no formal protection training available at this time, and the only equipment consisted of a suit, concealed weapon, and an unmarked car.

Smith* ABSTRACT This article provides recommendations for governors and other executive branch officials to consider when implementing regulatory reform. Studies have shown that regulatory reform is needed because of the substantial impact on the economy, consumers, and businesses. Recent technological advances have al- lowed regulations to be quantified by a metric known as regulatory restrictions, which counts uses of “shall,” “must,” “may not,” “prohibited,” and “required.” Quantifying regulatory restrictions allows for comparison of the regulatory scope between states.

  • Missouri Legislative Update
    M ISSOURI LEGISLATIVE UPDATE MissouriansAreDeniedRight-to-CarryProtection ATTENTIONMISSOURI 44 States Respect Citizens’ Right-to-Carry for Self-Protection NRAMEMBERS: This spring, the Governors of Colorado, Minnesota and New Mexico signed “Right-to-Carry” legislation for the benefit of the law-abiding citizens of their states, recognizing that law enforcement cannot always stop violent criminals. The citizens of 44 states now have the protection afforded by a Right-to-Carry law, but Missouri residents are still being denied that fundamental right, all because of one man—Governor Bob Holden. Missouri’s Legislature Respects Law-Abiding Citizens — Why Doesn’t Its Governor? ISSOURIANS M This year the Missouri General Assembly passed Right-to-Carry (HB 349) and Frivolous Lawsuit Preemption (SB 13) with overwhelming support from both parties. Yet, Governor Bob Holden vetoed both bills. Holden’s veto has stopped Missourians from being able to protect themselves and their families outside the home, and allowed St. Louis AREDENIED and other Missouri cities to continue to sue gun manufactures for the acts of criminals who misuse their products. Holden’s Anti-Gun Views Bob Holden says, "I have a philosophical problem with conceal and carry," (Associated Press, May 2, 2003) The fact of the matter is, Bob Holden has a problem with the Second Amendment. Since his run for governor in 2000, RIGHT-TO-CARRY Holden has maintained an “F” rating with NRA — no Missouri politician scores a lower grade. Holden thinks the way to get re-elected in 2004 is by vetoing your ability to protect yourself and your family, while protecting the anti-gun lobby’s “junk” lawsuits against the firearms industry.

  • The Meaning of the Seventeenth Amendment and a Century of State Defiance
    Copyright 2013 by Northwestern University School of Law Printed in U.S.A. Northwestern University Law Review Vol. 107, No. 3 THE MEANING OF THE SEVENTEENTH AMENDMENT AND A CENTURY OF STATE DEFIANCE Zachary D. Clopton & Steven E. Art ABSTRACT—Nearly a century ago, the Seventeenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution worked a substantial change in American government, dictating that the people should elect their senators by popular vote. Despite its significance, there has been little written about what the Amendment means or how it works. This Article provides a comprehensive interpretation of the Seventeenth Amendment based on the text of the Amendment and a variety of other sources: historical and textual antecedents, relevant Supreme Court decisions, the complete debates in Congress, and the social and political factors that led to this new constitutional provision. Among other things, this analysis reveals that the Amendment requires states to fill Senate vacancies by holding elections, whether or not they first fill those vacancies by making temporary appointments. In so doing, the Seventeenth Amendment guarantees that the people’s right to vote for senators is protected in all circumstances. Using this interpretation as a baseline, this Article reviews state practice with respect to the filling of vacancies under the Seventeenth Amendment. Since the Amendment was adopted in 1913, there have been 244 vacancies in the U.S. Senate. In one-sixth of these cases, the states have directly violated the Seventeenth Amendment’s core requirement that senators be elected by popular vote by failing to hold any election. In addition, in many more cases the states have significantly delayed the required elections.
