Christine Slusser has more from the state Capitol.

She says the House isn't doing their job.

| Actuality: SHOEMY.WAV |
| Run Time: 00:17 |
| Description: "I don't think it was the proper move. I think it was a move that was much more in-tune to political inviting, political posturing, than it was in-tune to meeting the needs of the people of the state of Missouri." |
Even a fellow Representative was a little confused.
Belinda Harris from Southeastern Missouri says it came as a great surprise, and has one concern...

From Jefferson City, I'm Christine Slusser.
