I see drivers swerving all over the road because they are texting. Texting need to be done while the car is not moving. Hands free operation is not bad. My phone blue tooths into my radio.

Many people can't drive without a phone in their hand. Those people should not be allowed to have a phone in their car.

Thanks for the misinformation False Fax Max

Adam Schrader

So govt saying you can't use a phone while driving because idiots will hurt or kill people is ok. But govt saying you must wear a mask or be vaxxed because idiots will hurt or kill people is just horrible and unconstitutional.?

Max

Simple Adam, this is a legislative action, not an unconstitutional mandate. There is a difference, just in case you and Jackal, can't figure that out.

Max

Hands free devices are available for cars for under $30, and one of my cars has one. They work great. No need to hold a phone.

Unfortunately Mr Josh Hawley wants to vote no - depriving many Missourians of this large amount of money, benefits and jobs - he needs to be part of the solution, not the problem.

You need to put the crack pipe down,

It`s about time something was done about our infrastructure. There are third world countries that have better maintained airports than ours. It`s a disgrace.

Max

You also need to put the crack pipe down,

Lisha Lammers

Roads, bridges, airports, schools, hospitals ALL need work! This infrastructure bill will benefit ALL Americans!

Max

Only 8% of the money goes to infrastructure. The rest goes to socialist programs and bribes for the liberals in government and their handlers.

A person entrusted with a permit to conceal an carry is your friend. The answer is so obvious I don't know why this is even a question.

Harry Edwards

public is just that. public!

Randel Hearne

The transportation authorities have not been able to protect us so we ought to be able to do it ourselves. Things are only get worse in regards to our personal security as our country spirals downward.

Will Mason

In public is the point. No one needs a gun in private. Public transport is a target of mass shooters.
