Legislative Update: April 20, 2022

By the Rev. Dr. Teresa Mithen Danieley
Priest Associate, St. Mark's Episcopal Church, St. Louis
and Champions Organizer for Missouri Jobs with Justice

Missouri Legislative Update, April 19, 2022

"This week should be short with Monday canceled due to the Easter holiday, a charity softball tournament Wednesday, and the pressing needs around hitting the May 6th deadline on the budget. So there isn't much time to spend on controversial legislation, but we never know for certain." - from this week's MOJWJ Legislative Update on Unemployment Cuts, Initiative Petition Defense, Medicaid Expansion & Public Education.

There has been no movement on House Bill 1462 (which passed the House about a month ago) in the Senate, which would force guns to be allowed in congregations and on public transit.

From Erin Reed on Twitter: SB 843 is on today's senate calendar in Missouri (Tues., 4/19). It would medically detransition all trans teens in the state and create more trans refugees in our own country. They can bring it up any time to debate and vote. Call your senators! [If you wish to contact all MO State Senators, here is a complete list.]

Welcome from Our Bishop Find a Church Diocesan Calendar Clergy Resources

We believe in a loving, life-giving and liberating God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe God loves you -- no exceptions!

We invite you to be a part of our faith journey.

The Rt. Rev. Deon K. Johnson is the leader of our diocese. He was elected as our bishop on Nov. 23, 2019, and ordained on June 13, 2020, at Christ Church Cathedral in St. Louis.

Approximately 10,000 people throughout Eastern and Central Missouri find their faith home with us. About three-quarters of our members are in the metro St. Louis area, but our diocese reaches much farther than St. Louis. You will find more than 40 Episcopal churches, missions and faith communities as far north as Kirksville, as far west as Columbia, and as far south as Poplar Bluff (and many points in between).

If you are looking for a church home or a just a faith community to visit, we invite you to explore The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri.
