Sen. Gary Nodler, R-Joplin, received $5,350 during the second quarter, according to documents filed today with the Missouri Ethics Commission.
The money came from only four sources, according to the report. The senator received $2,500 from the Missouri Health Care Association, Jefferson City, $2,000 from Supporters of Health Research and Treatments, St. Louis; $500 from Coventry Health Care of Kansas, Inc., Kansas City; and $250 from MPGA Propane PAC, Jefferson City.
Nodler had $102,560.06 in his account at the beginning of the quarter, and spent $18,614.78, leaving him with $89,295.28. Of the $18,614.78, $13,579 went to Campaign Compliance, LLC, Joplin, with $11,000 of that total going for "consulting" and the rest for publications. Records on file with the Missouri Secretary of State's office show Campaign Compliance LLC was formed April 5, with David Anderson as agent, and an address of 2650 East 32nd Street.
Among Nodler's remaining expenditures were $1,000 to the Missouri Southern Foundation, $250 to MSSU Athletics, $118 for Joplin Rotary Club dues, $200 to Spiva Center for the Arts, $1,000 to Dempsey for the Senate, St. Charles; $500 to Missourians for Gibbons, St. Louis; $500 to Citizens for Ridgeway 2008, Smithville; $500 to Engler 08, Farmington; and $300 to Friends of Stevenson, Webb City.

Someone may need to file an ethics complaint against Nodler.
RSmo. 130.041.4. The words “consulting or consulting services, fees, or expenses”, or similar words, shall
not be used to describe the purpose of a payment as required in this section. The reporting of
any payment to such an independent contractor shall be on a form supplied by the appropriate
officer, established by the ethics commission and shall include identification of the specific
service or services provided including, but not limited to, public opinion polling, research on issues or opposition background, print or broadcast media production, print or broadcast media purchase, computer programming or data entry, direct mail production, postage, rent,
utilities, phone solicitation, or fund raising, and the dollar amount prorated for each service.
As I write this Nodler's report is not due until the close of business tomorrow. There is an amended report that shows as usual Nodler is in full compliance with the law and the rules. While there is nothing to file a complaint about, knock yourself out.
glad my post helped you comply with the law "after" filing your first report.
I don't know who you think you are talking to, but I don't file any reports, I just read them. There are no laws to comply with when reading these reports.
"money, money, money...it's a rich man's world"
from a popular song in the 80's, who knew then it would reflect Nodler?
Can we possibly get a smaller picture, this large shot is just killing my stomach. thanks
