Plans are to hold hearing on HB116 ( #RightToWork ) & vote it out ASAP today.. #MoSenate could then take it up 24 hours later.

We're not just talking video guys -- we're talking audio, too #moleg @MissouriSenate

What an awk place for @parsonforsenate: running for #MOgov, his committee is in charge of #RTW, & his friend is leading lobbying against it.

First KOMU. Then KRCG. Then @ProgressMO. Now everybody. So much for #MOLeg transparency. https://t.co/Wn2UHS0QjN

This is ridiculous - the Capitol is the people's house and its deliberations are, by law, open to public scrutiny. https://t.co/9QoNBxGcAt

I've never encountered this before -- neither have the public radio folks. #moleg @MissouriSenate
— Alex Stuckey (@alexdstuckey) May 11, 2015
According to P-D's @alexdstuckey video still not allowed. @fox2now, @kmov, @ksdknews, any other outlet that would shoot video--mad yet?

RW extremists running #MoLeg hyperbole, you say? Senate committee hearing Right-to-Work just banned all video & audio taping of committee.
— Charles Jaco (@charlesjaco1) May 11, 2015
The Senate Small Biz. Committee relents and decides to allow reporters to audio record the Right to Work hearing.

Forget legalese for a moment: What's the point of this? What do you gain from not allowing any sort of recording? https://t.co/WKy34uDLxx

This is how you turn a sham hearing on a #RTW bill that is never intended to become law into an actual news story. https://t.co/adZ0g2xzlQ

Hearing after hearing, folks line up to say #RightToWorkIsWrong while almost nobody in favor. Tonight is same. #moleg
