The Ozarks and surrounding area is rich with vibrant history and home to some of the most breathtaking waterways in the country. Southwest Missouri's agricultural heritage has created generations of farmers who have combined their ability to live off the land with an entrepreneurial spirit that has resulted in an agribusiness industry critical to the American economy. Higher education institutions and military facilities in the region provide more than opportunities to develop new skills, but also serve as essential economic pillars in many local communities. From Caulfield to Springfield to Deerfield, the countless small towns in this region embody the all-American ideals that make the heartland a special place. In stark contrast to the natural splendor of the lakes, forests and fields that can be found in most parts of the region, Branson serves as a unique, star-studded entertainment capital for Missouri and surrounding states.
Kitchen Table Talks
Let U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill know your concerns and issues by attending one of the many "Kitchen Table Talks" conducted by her staff all across Missouri."It's important that I hear what Missourians think about the issues affecting our state," said McCaskill. "I am always asking myself 'Is this a good idea for Missouri?'"
"Hearing common-sense feedback from Missourians is the key to helping me answer this question." The staff are documenting the issues constituents are facing, as well as any input that residents have on impending legislation. The findings will be reported back directly to Senator McCaskill. Please see the schedule to find an event near you.
