Sandy Crawford Capitol report

Last week, Senate Bill 743 passed by the Missouri Senate. The bill would authorize the cities of Clinton and Lincoln to propose a levy for public safety. It also exempts various other sales taxes. My proposal now heads to the Missouri House of Representatives for similar consideration.
In addition, Senate Bill 654 was voted “do pass” by the Missouri Senate Local Government and Elections Committee, which I chair. This election integrity measure would allow the state to require cyber security testing for vendors, and address paper ballots and photo ID among other provisions. I hope this legislation will soon be considered by the full Missouri Senate and ultimately sent to the governor’s desk for his consideration.
I am honored to serve as your Senator in the Missouri Senate. If, at any time, you have questions, concerns or ideas regarding state government, please feel free to contact me at (573) 751-8793 or Sandy.Crawford@senate.mo.gov.
