		<title>What I Did on My Summer Vacation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Friends, neighbors and constituents keep asking me what I&#8217;m doing with my time since the 2011 legislative session ended this past May in Jefferson City. A few aren&#8217;t sure if I work in Washington D.C or the state capitol so I wanted to bring you up-to-date. It feels like I haven&#8217;t slowed down all summer! [...]]]></description>

		<title>Farm to Table Interim Project</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s official.  I have kicked off my long-planned legislative interim project.  As I contemplate potential Farm to Table legislation, I have decided that I need to conduct personal research to determine how best to advocate food policy of the future. How can I access safe nutrious local food products &#8211; no matter where I live?  What [...]]]></description>

		<title>End of Session 2011</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The 2011 legislative session came to a close as required by state constitution on 6pm Friday, May 13. You may have seen media photos of legislators flinging bills into the air with glee when the gavel signaled final adjournment on the dot at 6:00:00pm.

		<title>Another Small Victory to Brag About</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning my equal pay bill, HB349 was given a public hearing and then was voted out of committee &#8211; Workforce Development and Workplace Safety.  This is something to brag about since this bill last progressed this far in 2002 under the sponsorship of former Rep. Joan Bray. I thank Chair Rep. Barney Fisher (R-Nevada) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Time is Running Out for Serious Work&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re in the countdown&#8230;only 11 days are left in the 2011 legislative session.  It&#8217;s difficult to say what we have actually accomplished so far. One reporter recently wrote &#8211; &#8220;The MO GOP-led legislature has been in a rush to pass bills relating to hogs, dogs, discrimination and redistricting&#8221;.  Yes, that seems accurate. No jobs bills.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>One of my favorite young activists</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Earlier this session I told you about my young friend, Maddie Goldberg, a  4th grader at Reform Jewish Academy in St. Louis, who I am training to replace me in the state legislature once she grows up. Maddie just returned from her very first trip to Washington D.C. to lobby Congress on epilepsy awareness and [...]]]></description>

		<title>My First Bill Passes in the House</title>
		<description><![CDATA[UPDATE &#8211; SEAN&#8217;S LAW WAS INCLUDED IN AN OMNIBUS DISABILITY BILL THAT PASSED TODAY IN THE HOUSE.  I COULD GET USED TO PASSING BILLS. I was almost doing cartwheels on the house floor as my very first piece of legislation (EVER) was passed by the House last week.  However, I was reminded quickly that house [...]]]></description>

		<title>Good News&#8230;for a Change</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Only 17 days are left in the 2011 legislative session so this update focuses on great things happening in the 73rd district and the Capitol.  Often it is easy to get discouraged with various legislation the House is considering &#8211; some policies that I believe hurt people and our state instead of helping.  But sometimes [...]]]></description>
