House representative Republican Timothy Jones of Eureka says the governor is to blame if this special session goes to waste.

| Description: "I think it's a failure in the governor's leadership, and the governor inserting himself into this process and convincing a few senators to send us a bill that the house has never supported in the form of compete Missouri." | |
The House and the Senate will have to come to a quick agreement if any legislation is going to be passed during this special session.
Jones says the House and the Senate will meet separately Thursday night and try to compromise.
