Missouri Republican House Speaker Tim Jones brought his “Triple E” legislative agenda to Sedalia on Wednesday with a stop at Sierra Bullets.
Jones, who serves as the representative of the 89th District, which includes the communities of Wildwood and Eureka, met with Sierra Bullets President Pat Daly and local elected officials at the company’s Sedalia plant as part of his ongoing 20-city statewide tour in advance of the new session of the Missouri General Assembly, which begins next month with a historic 110-member Republican supermajority.
