Listen "(LISTEN): "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn discusses special session on "Wake Up Missouri""
Episode Synopsis
Missouri lawmakers return to Jefferson City Wednesday for a special session on congressional redistricting and on amending the state’s initiative petition process. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) announced the call Friday afternoon, and Democrats are furious. Missouri House Majority Floor Leader Alex Riley (R-Springfield) agrees with the governor’s call. But Democrats like State Rep. LaKeySha Bosley (D-St. Louis), one of the Missouri House’s senior members, say the integrity of our democratic system is at stake. Representative Bosley says the proposed redistricting efforts also risk Governor Kehoe’s own promise to lead with fairness and integrity. "Missouri Times" publisher Scott Faughn joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri." Mr. Faughn tells listeners that the Missouri Legislature will approve a 7-1 GOP congressional map and predicts the courts will uphold it. He also says we'll see some protests in Jefferson City:
