Senator Karla Eslinger

Working for the good people of Missouri's 33rd Senate District. This is the official account of Missouri Senator Karla Eslinger.

[MO Senate Appropriations Chairman @MOSenateApprops]

The Missouri Senate just passed HB 2002 which funds elementary and secondary education. Our budget makes significant investments in students and teachers by fully funding the foundation formula and raising starting teacher pay to $40,000. #moleg #mosen

[MO Senate Appropriations Chairman @MOSenateApprops]

Yes, the FRA has been renewed 16 times in the past with bipartisan support from the Missouri legislature. Renewing the FRA is a necessary step to ensure stable funding for the state's Medicaid program and support Missouri's broader healthcare system. #moleg #mosen

[MO Senate Appropriations Chairman @MOSenateApprops]

If Missouri fails to renew the FRA, the state risks losing out on billions of dollars in federal funding for Medicaid. This could result in significant budget cuts, reduced healthcare services, and increased costs for patients & providers. #moleg #mosen

[MO Senate Appropriations Chairman @MOSenateApprops]

As the Senate prepares to approve the FRA, it's vital to highlight the program's benefits. This public-private partnership helps Missouri cut healthcare expenses for vulnerable groups such as pregnant women, children, persons with disabilities, and the elderly. #mosen #moleg

Yesterday it was my privilege to attend the groundbreaking at @missouristatewp for the Ascend Program. This one-of-a-kind program will provide students with autism the tools and resources they need to succeed at the collegiate level. Thank you @GovParsonMO for your support!

[Senator Karla Eslinger @SenatorEslinger]

I’m proud to represent @HoustonMOTigers. It is unfortunate that the players, team, and community are being punished for the admirable action of raising funds for a local hospital. @BennieCookMO and I are demanding answers from @MSHSAAOrg regarding this ridiculous decision.

[Senator Karla Eslinger @SenatorEslinger]

Agriculture is the life-blood of Missouri’s economy. I’m proud to be the sponsor for SB 138 and champion this legislation along with @HannahKellyMO. Missouri is blessed to have a farmer in the Governor’s Mansion with @GovParsonMO. It’s a great day to be a farmer in Missouri!

Yesterday I was able to tour the final stages of construction for @TexasMemorial’s new surgical center. Ensuring that our rural hospitals can provide immediate life-saving care to our communities is critical. Thank you @GovParsonMO and @lincolnhough for your support of rural MO!

[Senator Karla Eslinger @SenatorEslinger]

This weekend it was my honor to address the Missouri Forest Products Association and provide them a legislative update. I was proud to carry Senate Bill 138 for them and work with Representative Hannah Kelly to get it across the finish line this year.

[Senator Karla Eslinger @SenatorEslinger]

A huge thanks to our industry leaders who worked tirelessly as well to help get SB 138 across the finish line: @mfpa1970, @MoCattle, @missourisoybean, @MOFarmBureau, and @MissouriCorn.

[Senator Karla Eslinger @SenatorEslinger]

Yesterday, @GovParsonMO signed SB 138 into law. This comprehensive agriculture bill will help farmers across Missouri. I was proud to champion this bill and work with @HannahKellyMO to get it passed in the final days of session.

[Senator Karla Eslinger @SenatorEslinger]
