I look forward to serving on the Senate Armed Services Committee and fighting to sustain Missouri’s historic role as one of the most important states in national defense. This committee will be faced with a number of critical challenges and... responsibilities this year, including dealing with the sequestration cuts. We must rein in Washington’s out-of-control spending, but those cuts should be targeted in a way that does not jeopardize our national security or military readiness.See MoreSenator Roy Blunt shared a link.
The Senate unanimously approved a resolution that I introduced with Senator Landrieu condemning Russian President Putin for using his nation's children as political pawns. By blocking American families from all Russian adoptions, President ...Putin is creating an international dispute and demonstrating behavior that is not worthy of the credit we just gave the Russians when we granted them Permanent Normal Trade Relations last month.See MoreSenator Roy Blunt shared a link.
Congress passed the bill I cosponsored to help Kansas City remain a focal point in the study of World War I. Missourians are deeply proud of our World War I heroes, and it is only fitting to make the site of America’s World War I Museum the home base for the Centennial celebration.- Having worked hard to get these tax policies passed in 2001 and 2003, I'm glad that this vote protects middle class families and small business owners from tax hikes. This bill permanently protects 99% of taxpayers from a tax increase, provides permanent tax relief and economic certainty for every American, and ensures the vast majority of farm families and small businesses in Missouri will not face the unfair death tax.

I spoke on the Senate floor earlier today about the looming fiscal cliff.Senator Roy Blunt shared a link.
I delivered the Weekly Republican Address as we work to avert the fiscal cliff on January 1st. There’s not much time, but there’s still time to act. Both President Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid have claimed that an achievable ...plan is one that can pass both houses of Congress, and Republicans agree. President Obama and the Democrat-controlled Senate must step forward this week and work with Republicans to solve this problem now.See More
