Davis: Legislator of the Year

Rep. Charlie Davis honored with the Freshman Legislator of the Year Award

Jefferson City - To honor and recognize the efforts of Rep. Charlie Davis, R-128 of Webb City for his work this year on Protecting Personal Freedoms, Speaker of the Missouri House of Representatives Steven Tilley, R-Farmington, awarded him the Freshman Legislator of the Year Award for 2011.  "I firmly believe actions speak louder than words and as an elected official, those actions are crucial to the well-being of our constituents.  I commend Rep. Davis on his actions regarding the protecting of Missourians' personal freedoms showing firsthand that his actions demonstrate leadership for the people of his district," said Speaker Tilley.

Through his role as the Vice Chair of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs, Rep. Davis helped promote legislation that would protect and help those who protect and help the citizens of our state.

Rep. Davis sponsored House Resolution 33 to honor our fallen veterans with the Honor and Remember Flag.  He also co-sponsored legislation that helped our veterans by extending the Missouri Military Family Relief Fund.  Rep. Davis also served on Small Business, Utilities, and Tax Reform Committees.

"I believe we have accomplished a lot this year without taking away the personal freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution.  We also passed a difficult budget without raising the taxes on our citizens," said Rep. Davis; and "I look forward to next year's legislative session."
