A bill filed by Rep. Sara Lampe, D-Springfield, today would prohibit state legislators from becoming lobbyists until two years after they complete their terms.
HB 221, which faces a steep uphill climb, if passed would help slow down what has become a new Missouri tradition...term-limited legislators spending their final two years lining up new jobs and kowtowing to the special interests who dangle those jobs before them.
