This👇🏻is what our SB1336 does. Allowing people to sleep on the streets in negative temps is inhumane. Short term housing coupled with mental health services = long term results. Failed policies need to end.

For those just tuning in, there are Senators filibustering (10-ish hours so far) the confirmation of mostly unpaid public servants that are almost all non-controversial appointees. #moleg

A little compilation of some of my favorite Senator O’Laughlin clap backs against Bill Eigel on the Senate floor yesterday. #MoLeg

We need people elected that have actually had to make it through hard times. Those of us who have, realize this job is an honor & it comes w/great responsibility. Put #peopleoverpolitics or get out of the way of those of us who are. #workorgetoutoftheway
