Members of LCARSP, along with over 200 other retired school personnel from around the state, attended Legislative Day at the Missouri State Capitol today, February 14. The assembly heard from state politicians and MRTA representatives before visiting their respective state legislators. These legislators listened to MRTA members as they shared their views on public education as well as their retirement program.

If you have not contacted your legislator please do so today. Do not assume someone else will advocate for your issues or that your legislator knows about your concerns.
