Hartzler: It's time to pass the balanced budget amendment
Congresswoman Vicky Hartzler is leading efforts in the U.S. House to pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Hartzler bill to improve FEMA relief efforts passes House WASHINGTON—A bill introduced by Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-Mo.) to ensure residents receive better guidance, more accurate information, and greater certainty from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) following a disaster passed in the U.S. House of Representatives with overwhelmingly bipartisan support by a vote of 408-0. “This bill requires FEMA to focus efforts on its core mission – helping people recover from disasters,” Hartzler said. “When people go through a disaster, such as floods and tornadoes, the people need to know that relief is on the way. From past disasters in Missouri, there have been repeated incidents of lost or misplaced paperwork, poor coordination between state and federal agencies, and general lack of information from FEMA officials. There are still pending cases from 2013 following the floods in my district! The people deserve better, and this bill delivers.” Hartzler spoke on the House floor during debate of her bill. Her rem |

I look forward to working with him to keep electricity affordable for Missourian's under the new paradigm of shared leadership between federal state, and local entities.” Thomas Hill Energy Center, an Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc. site, employs about 230 people and is an important resource for providing members reliable, around-the-clock electricity at an affordable cost.
