Heavenly Father, You are LORD; You have made the heavens, even the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them, and You give life to them all. We thank You for being patient with us.

Lord God, we recognize our own inadequacies and continue to seek Your help even, and especially, in this last week of Session. We are grateful You hear us and answer our prayers.

We are those, not only under Your authority, but under the authority granted to us by the people of this state. We do not take lightly this responsibility. May we do nothing in haste, contemplating every decision and its intended purpose.

Now, may You, God our Father, Who have loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope by grace, comfort and strengthen our hearts in every good work and word.

"250.140. 1. Sewerage services, water services, or water and sewerage services combined shall be deemed to be furnished to [both] the occupant [and owner] of the premises receiving such service and[, except as otherwise provided in subsection 2 of this section,] the city, town, village, or sewer district or water supply district organized and incorporated under chapter 247, RSMo, rendering such services shall have power to sue the occupant [or owner, or both,] of such real estate in a civil action to recover any sums due for such services less any deposit that is held by the city, town, village, or sewer district or water supply district organized and incorporated under chapter 247, RSMo, for such services, plus a reasonable attorney's fee to be fixed by the court.

2. [When the occupant is delinquent in payment for thirty days, the city, town, village, sewer district, or water supply district shall make a good faith effort to notify the owner of the premises receiving such service of the delinquency and the amount thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section to the contrary, when an occupant is delinquent more than ninety days, the owner shall not be liable for sums due for more than ninety days of service; provided, however, that in any city not within a county and any home rule city with more than four hundred thousand inhabitants and located in more than one county, until January 1, 2007, when an occupant is delinquent more than one hundred twenty days the owner shall not be liable for sums due for more than one hundred twenty days of service, and after January 1, 2007, when an occupant is delinquent more than ninety days the owner shall not be liable for sums due for more than ninety days.

As used in this subsection, "unapplied-for utility services" means services requiring application by the property owner and acceptance of such application by the utility prior to the establishment of an account.

2. When the occupant is delinquent in payment for thirty days, the city, town, village, sewer district, or water supply district shall make a good faith effort to notify the owner of the premises receiving such service of the delinquency and the amount thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section to the contrary, when an occupant is delinquent more than ninety days, the owner shall not be liable for sums due for more than ninety days of service. Any notice of termination of service shall be sent to both the occupant and owner of the premises receiving such service.

4. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, any water provider who terminates service due to delinquency of payment by a consumer shall not be liable for any civil or criminal damages.

5. The provisions of this section shall not apply to unapplied-for utility services. As used in this subsection, "unapplied-for utility services" means services requiring application by the property owner and acceptance of such application by the utility prior to the establishment of an account. The property owner is billed directly for the services provided, and as a result, any delinquent payment of a bill becomes the responsibility of the property owner rather than the occupant.

No redevelopment plan shall be adopted by a municipality without findings that:

(1) The redevelopment area on the whole is a blighted area, a conservation area, or an economic development area, and has not been subject to growth and development through investment by private enterprise and would not reasonably be anticipated to be developed without the adoption of tax increment financing. Such a finding shall include, but not be limited to, a detailed description of the factors that qualify the redevelopment area or project pursuant to this subdivision and an affidavit, signed by the developer or developers and submitted with the redevelopment plan, attesting that the provisions of this subdivision have been met;

(2) The redevelopment plan conforms to the comprehensive plan for the development of the municipality as a whole;

(3) The estimated dates, which shall not be more than twenty-three years from the adoption of the ordinance approving a redevelopment project within a redevelopment area, of completion of any redevelopment project and retirement of obligations incurred to finance redevelopment project costs have been stated, provided that no ordinance approving a redevelopment project shall be adopted later than ten years from the adoption of the ordinance approving the redevelopment plan under which such project is authorized and provided that no property for a redevelopment project shall be acquired by eminent domain later than five years from the adoption of the ordinance approving such redevelopment project;

(4) A plan has been developed for relocation assistance for businesses and residences;

(5) A cost-benefit analysis showing the economic impact of the plan on each taxing district which is at least partially within the boundaries of the redevelopment area. The analysis shall show the impact on the economy if the project is not built, and is built pursuant to the redevelopment plan under consideration. The cost-benefit analysis shall include a fiscal impact study on every affected political subdivision, and sufficient information from the developer for the commission established in section 99.820 to evaluate whether the project as proposed is financially feasible;

(6) A finding that the plan does not include the initial development or redevelopment of any gambling establishment, provided however, that this subdivision shall be applicable only to a redevelopment plan adopted for a redevelopment area designated by ordinance after December 23, 1997.

2. In the event that, within ten days after the passage of a municipal or county ordinance adopting a redevelopment plan, the appropriate local election authority receives a notice, signed by not less than one hundred registered voters of the municipality or county, stating the intention of such registered voters to cause a petition to be circulated to resubmit any such ordinance to a second vote by the municipal or county governing body, the ordinance shall not take effect as otherwise provided. In the event that, within forty days after the passage of a municipal or county ordinance adopting a redevelopment plan, the appropriate local election authority receives a petition, signed by a number of registered voters equal to at least ten percent of the number of total votes cast in such subdivision in the most recent mayoral or county commissioner election, requesting that approval of the redevelopment plan be resubmitted to the municipal or county governing body for a second vote, the municipal or county governing body shall vote again on the adoption of the redevelopment plan. No such plan shall become effective unless and until it receives the favorable vote of two-thirds of all the members of the governing body.

By the last day of February each year, each commission shall report to the director of economic development the name, address, phone number and primary line of business of any business which relocates to the district. The director of the department of economic development shall compile and report the same to the governor, the speaker of the house and the president pro tempore of the senate on the last day of April each year.

(8) Accept grants, guarantees, and donations of property, labor, or other things of value from a public or private source for use within a redevelopment area;

(12) Disburse surplus funds from the special allocation fund to taxing districts as follows:

(3) In all municipalities six members shall be appointed by the chief elected officer of the municipality, with the consent of the majority of the governing body of the municipality;

(7) At the option of the members appointed by the municipality, the members who are appointed by the school boards and other taxing districts may serve on the commission for a term to coincide with the length of time a redevelopment project, redevelopment plan or designation of a redevelopment area is considered for approval by the commission, or for a definite term pursuant to this subdivision. If the members representing school districts and other taxing districts are appointed for a term coinciding with the length of time a redevelopment project, plan or area is approved, such term shall terminate upon final approval of the project, plan or designation of the area by the governing body of the municipality. Thereafter the commission shall consist of the six members appointed by the municipality, except that members representing school boards and other taxing districts shall be appointed as provided in this section prior to any amendments to any redevelopment plans, redevelopment projects or designation of a redevelopment area. If any school district or other taxing jurisdiction fails to appoint members of the commission within thirty days of receipt of written notice of a proposed redevelopment plan, redevelopment project or designation of a redevelopment area, the remaining members may proceed to exercise the power of the commission. Of the members first appointed by the municipality, two shall be designated to serve for terms of two years, two shall be designated to serve for a term of three years and two shall be designated to serve for a term of four years from the date of such initial appointments. Thereafter, the members appointed by the municipality shall serve for a term of four years, except that all vacancies shall be filled for unexpired terms in the same manner as were the original appointments.

Further amend said bill, Page 191, Section 2, by inserting after all of said section the following:

"Section 3. In any home rule city with more than four hundred thousand inhabitants and located in more than one county and any city not within a county, when tax increment financing is used for a project, those receiving the financing must make all good faith efforts to use minority business enterprises or women business enterprises to help complete the project."; and

(2) "Stay-at-home parent", any married parent of an eligible child if such stay-at-home parent was gainfully employed before the birth or adoption of the eligible child or marriage to a person with an eligible child, who is no longer gainfully employed as a result of the decision to stay at home to provide care for the eligible child, and whose annual salary while the stay-at-home parent was gainfully employed was one hundred thousand dollars or less. "Stay-at-home parent" shall not include any recipient of any public assistance;

(3) "Tax credit", a credit against the tax otherwise due under chapter 143, RSMo, excluding withholding tax imposed by sections 143.191 to 143.265, RSMo;

3. For all taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2007, a taxpayer shall be allowed a tax credit for providing care for an eligible child. The tax credit amount shall be equal to twenty-five percent of the stay-at-home parent's annual salary in the year before the stay-at-home parent terminated gainful employment to become a stay-at-home parent. If the amount of the tax credit issued exceeds the amount of the taxpayer's state tax liability for the tax year for which the credit is claimed, the difference shall not be refundable but may be carried forward to any of the taxpayer's three subsequent taxable years. No tax credit granted under this section shall be transferred, sold, or assigned.

4.

The director may establish more than one period of time and reapportion more than once during each fiscal year. To the maximum extent possible, the director shall establish the procedure described in this subsection in such a manner as to ensure that taxpayers can claim all the tax credits possible up to the cumulative amount of tax credits available for the fiscal year.

6. The department of revenue may promulgate rules to implement the provisions of this section.

(1) The provisions of the new program authorized under this section shall automatically sunset on December thirty-first six years after the effective date of this section unless reauthorized by an act of the general assembly; and

(2) If such program is reauthorized, the program authorized under this section shall automatically sunset on December thirty-first twelve years after the effective date of the reauthorization of this section; and

"67.457. 1. To establish a neighborhood improvement district, the governing body of any city or county shall comply with either of the procedures described in subsection 2 or 3 of this section.

2. The governing body of any city or county proposing to create a neighborhood improvement district may by resolution submit the question of creating such district to all qualified voters residing within such district at a general or special election called for that purpose. Such resolution shall set forth the project name for the proposed improvement, the general nature of the proposed improvement, the estimated cost of such improvement, the boundaries of the proposed neighborhood improvement district to be assessed, and the proposed method or methods of assessment of real property within the district, including any provision for the annual assessment of maintenance costs of the improvement in each year during the term of the bonds issued for the original improvement and after such bonds are paid in full. The governing body of the city or county may create a neighborhood improvement district when the question of creating such district has been approved by the vote of the percentage of electors within such district voting thereon that is equal to the percentage of voter approval required for the issuance of general obligation bonds of such city or county under article VI, section 26 of the constitution of this state. The notice of election containing the question of creating a neighborhood improvement district shall contain the project name for the proposed improvement, the general nature of the proposed improvement, the estimated cost of such improvement, the boundaries of the proposed neighborhood improvement district to be assessed, the proposed method or methods of assessment of real property within the district, including any provision for the annual assessment of maintenance costs of the improvement in each year after the bonds issued for the original improvement are paid in full, and a statement that the final cost of such improvement assessed against real property within the district and the amount of general obligation bonds issued therefor shall not exceed the estimated cost of such improvement, as stated in such notice, by more than twenty-five percent, and that the annual assessment for maintenance costs of the improvements shall not exceed the estimated annual maintenance cost, as stated in such notice, by more than twenty-five percent. The ballot upon which the question of creating a neighborhood improvement district is submitted to the qualified voters residing within the proposed district shall contain a question in substantially the following form:

Shall ............ (name of city or county) be authorized to create a neighborhood improvement district proposed for the ............. (project name for the proposed improvement) and incur indebtedness and issue general obligation bonds to pay for all or part of the cost of public improvements within such district, the cost of all indebtedness so incurred to be assessed by the governing body of the ............. (city or county) on the real property benefited by such improvements for a period of ...... years, and, if included in the resolution, an assessment in each year thereafter with the proceeds thereof used solely for maintenance of the improvement?

3. As an alternative to the procedure described in subsection 2 of this section, the governing body of a city or county may create a neighborhood improvement district when a proper petition has been signed by the owners of record of at least two-thirds by area of all real property located within such proposed district. Each owner of record of real property located in the proposed district is allowed one signature. Any person, corporation, or limited liability partnership owning more than one parcel of land located in such proposed district shall be allowed only one signature on such petition. The petition, in order to become effective, shall be filed with the city clerk or county clerk. A proper petition for the creation of a neighborhood improvement district shall set forth the project name for the proposed improvement, the general nature of the proposed improvement, the estimated cost of such improvement, the boundaries of the proposed neighborhood improvement district to be assessed, the proposed method or methods of assessment of real property within the district, including any provision for the annual assessment of maintenance costs of the improvement in each year during the term of the bonds issued for the original improvement and after such bonds are paid in full, a notice that the names of the signers may not be withdrawn later than seven days after the petition is filed with the city clerk or county clerk, and a notice that the final cost of such improvement assessed against real property within the district and the amount of general obligation bonds issued therefor shall not exceed the estimated cost of such improvement, as stated in such petition, by more than twenty-five percent, and that the annual assessment for maintenance costs of the improvements shall not exceed the estimated annual maintenance cost, as stated in such petition, by more than twenty-five percent. Any neighborhood improvement district in existence prior to August 28, 2007, where two-thirds of the property located in such district was owned by a single person, corporation, or limited liability partnership shall be nullified. Any remaining indebtedness resulting from the issuance of bonds to fund the improvements within the neighborhood improvement district shall revert to the governing body of the city or county.

4. Upon receiving the requisite voter approval at an election or upon the filing of a proper petition with the city clerk or county clerk, the governing body may by resolution or ordinance determine the advisability of the improvement and may order that the district be established and that preliminary plans and specifications for the improvement be made. Such resolution or ordinance shall state and make findings as to the project name for the proposed improvement, the nature of the improvement, the estimated cost of such improvement, the boundaries of the neighborhood improvement district to be assessed, the proposed method or methods of assessment of real property within the district, including any provision for the annual assessment of maintenance costs of the improvement in each year after the bonds issued for the original improvement are paid in full, and shall also state that the final cost of such improvement assessed against the real property within the neighborhood improvement district and the amount of general obligation bonds issued therefor shall not, without a new election or petition, exceed the estimated cost of such improvement by more than twenty-five percent.

5. The boundaries of the proposed district shall be described by metes and bounds, streets or other sufficiently specific description. The area of the neighborhood improvement district finally determined by the governing body of the city or county to be assessed may be less than, but shall not exceed, the total area comprising such district.

6. In any neighborhood improvement district organized prior to August 28, 1994, an assessment may be levied and collected after the original period approved for assessment of property within the district has expired, with the proceeds thereof used solely for maintenance of the improvement, if the residents of the neighborhood improvement district either vote to assess real property within the district for the maintenance costs in the manner prescribed in subsection 2 of this section or if the owners of two-thirds of the area of all real property located within the district sign a petition for such purpose in the same manner as prescribed in subsection 3 of this section."; and

Further amend said bill by amending the title, enacting clause, and intersectional references accordingly.

2. The obligations of a provider or user of a project or facility under a purchase agreement with an authority or arising out of the default by any other provider or user with respect to such an agreement shall not be construed to constitute debt of the provider or user. To the extent provided in the purchase agreement, such obligations shall constitute special obligations of the provider or user, payable solely from revenues and other moneys derived by the provider or user from its utility and shall be treated as expenses of operating the utility.

250.327. 1. An authority may at any time authorize or issue obligations for the purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of any project. Every issue of such obligations shall be payable from the net revenues of the wholesale water system, wholesale sewer system, or a combination thereof as the case may be, of the authority, including without limitation the proceeds of any agreement with any provider or user for the sale of wholesale water or wastewater services, and may be further secured by other property of the authority which may be pledged, assigned, mortgaged, or a security interest granted for such payment without preference or priority of the first obligations issued subject to any agreement with the holders of any other obligations pledging any specified property or revenues. Such obligations shall be authorized by resolution of the majority of the entire board of directors of the authority and, if issued by the authority, shall bear such date or dates and shall mature at such time or times, but not in excess of forty years, as the resolution shall specify. Such obligations shall be in such denomination, bear interest at such rate or rates, be in such form, either coupon or registered, be issued as current interest obligations, compound interest obligations, variable rate obligations, convertible obligations, or zero coupon obligations, be issued in such manner, be payable in such place or places and subject to redemption as such resolution may provide notwithstanding the provisions of section 108.170, RSMo. The obligations may be sold at either public or private sale, at such interest rates, and at such price or prices as the authority shall determine.

2. Any issue of authority obligations outstanding may be refunded at any time by the authority by issuing its refunding obligations in such amount as the authority may deem necessary. Such obligations may not exceed the amount sufficient to refund the principal of the obligations so to be refunded together with any unpaid interest thereon and any premiums, commissions, service fees, and other expenses necessary to be paid in connection with the refunding. Any such refunding may be effected either by sale of the refunding obligations and the application of the proceeds thereof to the payment of the obligations being refunded or by the exchange of the refunding obligations for the obligations being refunded with the consent of the holder or holders of the obligations being refunded. Refunding obligations may be issued regardless of whether the obligations being refunded were issued in connection with the same project or a separate project and regardless of whether the obligations proposed to be refunded shall be payable on the same date or different dates or shall be due serially or otherwise.

3. Obligations issued under this section shall exclusively be the responsibility of the authority payable solely out of authority funds and property provided in sections 250.300 to 250.330 and shall not constitute a debt or liability of the state of Missouri or any agency or political subdivision of the state, or any of the providers or users. The authority shall not be obligated to pay such obligations with any funds other than those specifically pledged to repayment of the obligations. Any obligations issued by an authority shall state on their face that they are not obligations of the state of Missouri or any agency or political subdivision thereof other than the authority.

4. Obligations issued under this section, the interest thereon, or any proceeds from such obligations shall be exempt from taxation in the state of Missouri for all purposes except the state estate tax.

5. The authority may enter into funding or financing arrangements or any other contract or agreement with any person or business entity, or any federal, state, or local government agency or authority deemed necessary or desirable to fund, finance, or effectuate any project, including without limitation credit enhancement, credit support or interest rate agreements.

250.330. 1. Proceedings for the dissolution of an authority shall be substantially the same as proceedings for the formation of the authority, as follows: A petition describing the authority sought to be dissolved shall be filed with the clerk of the circuit court of the county wherein the petition to form the authority was filed. Such petition shall allege that further operation of the authority is inimicable to the best interests of the providers which are members of the authority, that the authority should in the interest of the public welfare and safety be dissolved, that an alternative for the services of the projects owned and operated by the authority is available and better able to serve the providers that are members of the authority, and such other information as may be useful to the court in determining whether the petition should be granted and a decree of dissolution entered. Such petition shall also include a detailed plan for payment of all debt and obligations of the authority at the time of dissolution. Such petition shall be accompanied by a cash deposit of fifty dollars as an advancement of the costs of the proceeding and the petition shall be signed by a majority of the providers that are members of the authority. The authority shall be a party and, if the board of directors in its discretion determines that such dissolution is not in the public interest, the authority shall oppose such petition and pay all cost and expense thereof.

2. Upon the filing of the petition, the petition shall be presented to the circuit court and such court shall fix a date for a hearing on such petition as provided in this section. Thereupon, the clerk of the court shall give notice of the filing of the petition in some newspaper of general circulation in each of the providers that are members of the authority. The notice shall contain a description of the general purposes of the petition and shall set forth the date fixed for the hearing on the petition, which shall not be less than seven nor more than twenty-one days after the date of the last publication of the notice and shall be on some regular judicial day of the court wherein the petition is pending. Such notice shall be signed by the clerk of the circuit court and shall be published in three successive issues of a weekly newspaper or in twenty successive issues of a daily newspaper.

3. The court, for good cause shown, may continue the case or the hearing thereon from time to time until final disposition thereof.

Such exceptions shall be filed not less than five days prior to the date set for the hearing on the petition, and shall specify the grounds upon which the exceptions are filed and the court shall take them into consideration in passing upon the petition and shall also consider the evidence in support of the petition and in support of the exceptions made. Unless petitioners prove that all debts and financial obligations of the authority can be paid in full upon dissolution, the petition shall be dismissed at the cost of the petitioners.

5. If the court finds that it would not be to the public interest to dissolve an authority, the petition shall be dismissed at the costs of the petitioners. If, however, the court finds in favor of the petitioners, the court shall enter its interlocutory decree of dissolution which decree shall provide for the submission of the question to the voters of the authority in substantially the following form:

6. The decree of dissolution shall not become final and conclusive until it shall have been submitted to the voters residing within the boundaries of each provider that is a member of the authority and until it shall have been assented to by a majority of two-thirds of the voters voting on the proposition. The decree shall provide for the submission of the question and shall fix the date thereof. The returns shall be certified by the election authorities to the circuit court having jurisdiction in the case and the court shall thereupon enter its order canvassing the returns and declaring the result of such election.

7. If upon canvass and declaration it is found and determined that the question shall have been assented to by a majority of two-thirds of the voters voting on such proposition, the court shall in such order declaring the result of the election enter a further order declaring the decree of dissolution to be final and conclusive. If, however, the court finds that the question had not been assented to by the majority required, the court shall enter a further order declaring such decree of dissolution to be void and of no effect. No appeal shall lie from any of the aforesaid orders. If the court declares the decree of dissolution to be final, as provided in this section, the clerk of the circuit court shall file certified copies of such decree of dissolution and of such final order with the secretary of state of the state of Missouri and with the recorder of deeds of the county or counties in which the authority does business and with the clerk of the county commission of the county or counties in which the authority does business.

8. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section to the contrary, no authority shall be dissolved until after all of its debts shall have been paid and the court in its decree of dissolution provides for the disposition of the property of the authority."; and

(2) Verify the issuance, validity, and completeness of all primary documents used to issue a driver's license, such as those showing that the bearer is a United States citizen or a lawful alien, a lawful refugee, or a person holding a valid visa;

(3) Provide for secure storage of all primary documents that are used to issue a federally approved driver's license or state identification card;

(4) Provide fraudulent document recognition training to all persons engaged in issuing driver's licenses or state identification cards; and

(5) Issue a driver's license or state identification card in a prescribed format if it is a license or card that does not meet the criteria provided for a federally approved license or identification card; and

WHEREAS, use of the federal minimum standards for state driver's licenses and state-issued identification cards will be necessary for any type of federally regulated activity for which an identification card must be displayed, including flying in a commercial airplane, making transactions with a federally licensed bank, entering a federal building, or making application for federally supported public assistance benefits, including Social Security; and

WHEREAS, some of the intended privacy requirements of the REAL ID Act, such as the use of common machine-readable technology and state maintenance of a database that can be shared with the United States government and agencies of other states, may actually make it more likely that a federally required driver's license or state identification card, or the information about the bearer on which the license or card is based, will be stolen, sold, or otherwise used for purposes that were never intended or that are criminally related than if the REAL ID Act had not been enacted; and

WHEREAS, these potential breaches in privacy that could result directly from compliance with the REAL ID Act may violate the right to privacy secured in the Missouri Constitution, for thousands of residents of Missouri; and

WHEREAS, the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, the National Governors' Association, and the National Conference of State Legislatures have estimated, in an impact analysis dated September 2006, that the cost to the states to implement the REAL ID Act will be more than $11 billion over 5 years, and it is estimated that the implementation of the REAL ID Act will cost Missouri millions to fully implement the Act, none of such costs being paid for by the federal government; and

WHEREAS, for all of these reasons, the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators, the National Governors' Association, and the National Conference of State Legislatures, in a letter dated March 17, 2005, to the majority and minority leaders of the United States Senate, opposed the adoption of the REAL ID Act, but the opposition of those groups, and the groups' request that Congress rely on driver's license security provisions already passed by Congress in the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, was largely ignored by Congress; and

WHEREAS, the regulations that are to be adopted by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to implement the requirements of the REAL ID Act have yet to be adopted and, in reality, will probably not become effective until the Spring of 2007, effectively giving the states only one year in which to become familiar with the implementing regulations and comply with those regulations and the requirements of the REAL ID Act; and

WHEREAS, the mandate to the states, through federal legislation that provides no funding for its requirements, to issue what is, in effect, a national identification card appears to be an attempt to "commandeer" the political machinery of the states and to require the states to be agents of the federal government, in violation of the principles of federalism contained in the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, as interpreted by the United States Supreme Court in New York v. United States, 488 U.S. 1041 (1992), United States v. Lopez, 514 U.S. 549 (1995), and Printz v. United States, 521 U.S. 898 (1997):

WHEREAS, state legislatures in Georgia, Massachusetts, Montana, New Mexico, New Hampshire, and Washington, have, through legislation or resolutions, opposed the implementation of the REAL ID Act; and

WHEREAS, the Missouri General Assembly affirms its abhorrence of and opposition to global terrorism, and affirms its commitment to protecting the civil rights and civil liberties of all Missouri residents and opposes any measures, including the REAL ID Act, that unconstitutionally infringe upon those civil rights and civil liberties:

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the members of the House of Representatives, Ninety-Fourth General Assembly, First Regular Session, the Senate concurring therein, hereby calls on Congress to repeal the REAL ID Act; and

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chief Clerk of the Missouri House of Representatives be instructed to prepare properly inscribed copies of this resolution and be immediately transmitted to the Honorable George W. Bush, President of the United States; the President of the United States Senate; the Speaker of the House of Representatives; and each member of Congress from the State of Missouri.
