Description
A group of bipartisan legislators earlier this week voted down a report that would have recommended a formal letter of disapproval for Missouri House Speaker Dean Plocher. Among other issues, the ethics committee was investigating how Plocher was reimbursed for travel expenses. The scuttled report also accused him of “absolute obstruction.” Missouri Independent Editor-in-Chief Jason Hancock discusses his reporting on this story.
