Dugger: Visitors Express Concern About Proposition B's Passage

Speaker Tilley has set up a very aggressive itinerary for this session. So far this week we have delved straight into the “meat and potatoes”, with a major concern that every Missourian is faced with. On Thursday we adopted the House Rules [HR38] by which we will conduct business for this session. On the 19th we will hear the Governor’s State of the State Address and his budget plan for the next year.

HR 39


This resolution asked Chris Koster, Missouri’s Attorney General, to join in the Florida Law Suit against the Federal Government of the National Health Care Plan set in place by the Obama Administration. If he does not want to join in the conglomerated law suite, the bill asks him to launch an independent law suit on the same grounds. Thank you for all your E-mails informing me on how you feel on this topic. I was honored to vote in favor of this resolution. The final vote for HR39 was 115 for, and 46 against.

Groups That Visited The Capitol


I was honored to visit with a local group of dog breeders and veterinarians from my district that visited the Capitol this week. They expressed the negative effects Proposition B would have on their business. I am hopeful we can make some changes to this Proposition this session.
