NO Governor Meddling with St. Louis' Elected Prosecutor

I urge you to oppose HB301 and any similar bills. The people of St. Louis have twice elected Kim Gardner to her job as City prosecutor. For the Republicans in the Missouri Legislature, the so-called party of small government and local control, to propose that the Governor has the ability to appoint his own Special Prosecutor in the City of St. Louis is racist hypocrisy. How does Representative Roberts, out in Joplin, think he knows ANYTHING about what the people of St. Louis want or need. If the people of St. Louis didn't want Gardner as prosecutor, she would be voted out. That's how our representative government is supposed to work. This is ridiculous culture war legislation proposed by people out of touch with the reality of St. Louis residents. It's clear this is partisan revenge against progressive movements in St. Louis. Let St. Louisans govern St. Louis. Oppose this bill.
