Wrap: A 38-million-dollar plan would fund new offices for the Missouri Department of Transportation. Some lawmakers say that the current MoDot building could be used as office space for legislative staff, like a Capitol annex.
Democratic Representative Jeff Roorda from Jefferson County says this plan is government at its worst, and he will not support it.

| Description: "I can't believe that the party that claims to be the party of fiscal conservatism would advance such a measure." | |
Another 50 million dollars would fun structural improvements to the state Capitol. The measure must be approved once more before heading to the Senate.
