“One way to be helpful is to not insult the entire Senate body in a five-minute speech.”
Cindy O’Laughlin, president pro tem of the Missouri Senate. She took exception to a speech made on the Senate floor by Lt. Gov. David Wasinger, who said he intended to play a more active role in chamber proceedings. O’Laughlin says the lieutenant governor does not have that kind of authority and in fact does not have the privilege even of addressing the body. (Missouri Independent)
