Here is the deal. Sheilds’ office has to put on calendar. Engler’s office has to put on floor to vote after it has been put on calendar (they hinted they might not have the time to get it on the calendar, btw). Both offices know that if this isn’t taken care of via phone today we will be there in person with cameras tomorrow. WE WILL ABOLISH THE REAL ID IN MISSOURI

Members of Liberty Restoration Project contacted Senator Shields’ office this morning, and were first told that the committee hasn’t released it, and sent to Senator Callahan, the committee chair.

This information was WRONG. We were told that this was due to an error in website updates, and then sent to Floor Leader Senator Engler’s office as manager of the calender. This was WRONG ALSO

Senator Shields is the one who has to “Send” a bill TO the calendar, and Engler “fits” it in for debate.

Do NOT Let staffers play phone tag with parliamentary rules as we did. Let them know that you know Sen. Shields is the current hurdle and that you KNOW that with one week left of session this bill NEEDS ON THE CALENDAR TODAY! Once on the Calendar, make sure Engler’s office knows it and fits it in!!

(it will say when on calendar)
If possible, record your calls!

Senator Charlie Shields’ office: (573)751-9476
Senator Kevin Engler’s office: (573) 751-3455
