The First 200 Days
Experience and Vision in the 24th Legislative District
The 95th Missouri General Assembly--the 2009 Legislative Session--ended on May 15. The 129-day session was a whirlwind of activity, hard-fought battles, and a fair amount of frustration. Plan on joining me Thursday, May 28 at my Office Hours in either Columbia or Ashland for a session wrap-up. (See details on this page.) Let's talk about what happened, what didn't, and what should have.
Direct contact with you is the best way for me to keep in touch with your expectations and for you to let me know when you agree or disagree with my positions. Please continue to let me know your ideas, thoughts, and opinions. Join me at Office Hours or you can always email me at chris@chriskelly24.com.

Thanks for Keeping the Porch Light On!
The 2008 campaign was long and grueling. We all saw far too many political ads and heard the tone degrade ever further down the road of political desperation. But in the end, the country and state have come together in a heartwarming display of "Let's all get to work and solve the many problems before us."
During the campaign, I personally knocked on more than 10,000 doors all across the 24th District. I talked with thousands of voters, each with his or her own opinions. I believe I've learned what the people of the 24th expect. I intend to do no less. As your state legislator, my Capitol door is always open. Thank you for your confidence in me and your continued support!
Chris
