After Rep. Derges' federal indictment, Speaker @RobVescovo releases a statement asking the embattled representative to resign from #moleg https://themissouritimes.com/vescovo-asks-derges-to-resign-following-federal-indictment/
This afternoon, I watched as the Elections Committee debated a bill that seeks to bar the courts from changing ballot initiative summary language #moleg https://themissouritimes.com/lawmakers-attempt-to-stymie-courts-involvement-with-ballot-initiative-language/
and finally, @CamGWrites closes out the afternoon writing about a bill in the Senate that would allow water and sewer companies to request rate changes more often, something that is dividing companies and consumer groups #moleg https://themissouritimes.com/senate-considers-bill-to-ease-water-sewer-rate-changes/
