I'm in Missouri and I doubt it. This is a state that voters approved expansion of Medicaid, sick leave, legal weed, and abortion rights only to elect officials who have, or are trying to repeal those initiatives.

Agriculture is big, and most voted for Trump because they knew they'd get bailouts.

If that's the case they are doing something right.

I work with people who have intellectual and developmental disabilities. They are high risk, it was the leading cause of death for people with IDD in 2020, and we have COVID cases already. I want to be vaccinated to protect them. Even if it doesn't stop transmission it shortens it.

The Missouri GOP saying they want to reflect voters is laughable.

Missouri voters, who mostly vote Republican (St. Louis City here, it is endlessly frustrating) approved sick leave and abortion rights last fall. The legislature has rolled back sick leave and is fighting to ban abortion again.

They don't care what voters want. Missouri voters (I am one) approved sick leave and abortion rights last fall, and the Missouri legislature has rolled back one and is fighting the other. The GOP said MO voters, who mostly vote red, are "like a teenager with a checkbook".

Why don't you show the source?

I was pistol whipped and carjacked in front of my home about a week before Big Balls. It sucked. Life goes on though and there is a suspect in custody. Even if that hadn't been the case, I wouldn't be ok milking it to justify an authoritarian take over.
