WASHINGTON, D.C. – Over the past two years, members of U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill’s staff have regularly traveled throughout the state to hear from local residents and to inform them of the numerous ways her office can be of service to all Missourians. But on December 15th and 17th, McCaskill will be joining her staff to host a “Kitchen Table Talk”, one of a series of statewide events reaching out to constituents, to address their questions and concerns.

 

“It’s important that I hear what Missourians think about the issues affecting our state,” said McCaskill.  “Good ideas come from real people, not lobbyists.   I want people to know that I am always asking myself ‘Is this a good idea for Missouri?’  Hearing common-sense feedback from Missourians is the key to helping me answer this question.”

 

Currently, the senator has staff in Cape Girardeau, Columbia, Kansas City, Springfield, and St. Louis. The Kitchen Table Talks serve, in part, to inform area residents of the services that are available to them when they contact one of her regional offices. McCaskill and her staff can assist constituents on a range of federal government issues.
