As of February 14th, Valentine's Day, SB 51 is scheduled to arrive on the MO Senate floor Monday, February 15th, for a final reading and pass.

It is imperative, TODAY, to CALL and email these Republican Senators who are on the fence and/or who are saying they will vote to pass without any further revisions.

I'm also listing here several resources for you to read and listen to so you can do your own research and decide for yourself how you feel about this piece of legislation that I believe will harm EVERY Missourian.  Here's a short list of WHY I feel that way.

  • Individuals, small businesses and churches CAN be sued by the government or other entities for "reckless" behavior or "willful/intentional misconduct" in relation to Covid 19.  This includes "Covid 19 exposure action"  which includes EXPOSURE to, FEAR of or POTENTIAL exposure to the Covid 19 virus or any future virus that would have mutated from it.   What is reckless??  Choosing not to wear a mask?  Choosing to allow your congregation to choose if they want to wear one?  Having a service indoors?  With how many people?  Opening your business so you can financially survive?  Allowing customers in your door when they aren't masked?  How about if they aren't vaccinated?

  • The definition of "personal injury" in this bill includes "mental suffering, emotional distress or similar injuries suffered by an individual in connection with a physical injury"

  • Hospitals, nursing homes, big pharma, big business are all FREE of liability.  Think about that...  your grandma in the nursing home, your loved one sick, vulnerable and ALONE in the hospital, someone who can't work or make their wages because of a faulty positive test result (which account for about 30% of them)..   no one responsible for these things will be able to be held liable!  There will be no opportunity for you to seek JUSTICE if you need it.  So, we are punishing the majority because of a few bad apples who file frivolous suits.

  • This bill covers local health mandates that are in effect now and any that would be effect in the future which are coming from the more local health organizations, which are not elected officials.  It would be difficult to hold those responsible who could be misusing that authority.
Here are some resources to help you decide for yourself, include the full text of the perfected bill which will be voted on tomorrow.

PERFECTED SB 51 - It's only 12 pages.   It's not hard to read or understand.  You can do it!

Attack on Churches See what the Missouri Baptist Association has to say about SB 51.

Return to Sender - A short video clip from one Missouri mom about why she wants SB 51 rejected.

The Beginning - SB 51 came from SB 1, which was pulled earlier in the special session.
 

My personal opinion is that there are great hospitals, doctors, nurses, nursing homes and front line workers who ARE doing ALL they can to protect and serve.  There are also not-so-great, greedy and selfish ones.  We NEED to be able to seek justice when the bad ones mismanage, mishandle, or neglect our most vulnerable populations!

Think about Gov Cuomo and the New York nursing home CRISIS that HE created by intentionally LYING!  Who is going to be held responsible for thousands of people dying!?  They KNEW what they were doing.  There WERE options, including a Navy ship located very nearby... but they chose to LIE and thousands DIED.  I don't know about you, but that's not ok with me ANY time!
