I expected more of a vote for change, as the city is struggling. Most of us are witnessing this decline and are astonished at how blind to it so many are. Buffered or head in the sand, I do not know. The troubles are real and I see no solutions from any of those elected.

The University of Missouri alumni are what’s causing all of this. They take their taxpayer funded state pensions and move to CoMo wanting to become permanent spectators at UM sports events. We need to put a stop to these people. These are the UM engineering school computer nerd graduates FYI

The Looney Left college vote bought this election. Look forward to more late evening crime downtown, more crime everywhere, all over town, at all times. The courts will give record probations, and Columbia will become known as Little Chicago.

The losers couldn't string two sentences together on the debate. Anyone who actually paid attention knew exactly where this was headed. Everyone else is talking through their feelings.

We need to write our state congressmen and demand a law to ban personalized MU license plates for state employees and retirees

Estimates are anecdotal, but have been reported. Its believed that more people work in Columbia than live there.

I did leave. You have no clue how bad Columbia smells until you leave and come back after a month. It smells like sour milk.

If I gave you name and number of a MoDOT engineer who has publicly proclaimed that he is going to retire and take his taxpayer funded pension and move to CoMo so he can “watch MU sports in retirement” would you help file a series of complaints against this state bureaucrat?

I've been telling everyone for years to leave. I left. The grass is greener and milk and honey flow outside of Columbia.

The stupidity of Columbia shows no bounds. Why Re-elect the person destroying the city and not caring for the city or its people.

MU engineering school graduates are the real problem. They get state jobs doing technical computer stuff that no one understands. And on top of that they are a bunch of socially awkward nerds.

A joyful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up the bones. Columbia offers despair, and rejects hope.

Should Missouri's U.S. senators support the "one big beautiful bill?"

This is a good start and the best that could be passed. Don't let perfect be the enemy of great.

They should support the president and the constituents who voted them in. That includes us who believe you work for what you get. No handouts!

The cuts didn't go deep enough. Ex. Musk's criticisms about how the EV mandates would be cut (good thing), but no cuts to the auto industry subsidies (bad thing). The liberal/socialist media is already lying to folks how this bill is throwing grandma under the bus. Proof? Look at the 'No' comments.

Please don’t do that! Trump promised no cuts to Medicaid but her we are just 5months into his term and he is doing that!

Help for the rich to get richer and it puts more average people in worse situations. Don't cut Medicaid or Social Security

They are going to take Medicaid away from 16 million people and who knows what else. Josh Hawley has got to go if he votes yes.

Tax reductions for the super rich ... doesn't make sense when it cuts necessary programs and helps inflate our Country's debt

The only way they can make this look like it doesn’t completely destroy the deficit is by making certain tax cuts and spending increases “temporary.” I support the tax cuts, as long as they are met with subsequent spending cuts. The true burden of government is what it spends, not what it taxes.

We will vote every last Republican out of office. Stealing food and Healthcare from [anyone] to profit the rich is an act of war and shall be treated as such.

It would increase the national debt by about 3 trillion dollars, and take away necessary infrastructure, all while lowering taxes on the wealthy.

As a customer of the Affordable Care Act I find it appalling that the two senators from Missouri would even consider supporting this bill that will potentially triple my monthly premium and also cut benefits. They should be ashamed of themselves for bowing down to the President. Checks and balances

You are kidding, right? Missouri congressmen need to read their job descriptions and represent their constituents. Voting for this bill is a betrayal of the will of the people.

Millionaires and billionaires don't need a tax break as much some people need health care. Also, social security's fund needs fixed which would have been a better use for that $45 million he wasted on a parade. Trump has all his priorities wrong.

They were elected to represent their constituents, ALL CONSTITUENTS not just those whom they perceived voted for them. Don't let anyone hold their vote hostage.
