U.S. Senator Christopher S. Kit Bond announced on Friday, June 12th that a Listening Post Forum will be held in Blue Springs at the Blue Springs Chamber of Commerce.
"My best ideas come from Missouri and I depend on the feedback I get from the thousands of Missourians that use these meeting each year," My job is to serve Missourians, but I need to hear about a problem if I am going to help solve it and that's what these Listening Posts are for."
Listening Posts are meetings with Missourians held by Senator Bond's staff across the state. During these meeting, Missourians are invited to discuss their concerns with federal policies and agencies with members of the Senator's staff. | |
