JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. -- Missouri Governor Mike Parson is weighing in on proposed St. Louis and Kansas City gun bans. Mayor Tishaura Jones and other St. Louis leaders are pushing for legislation to prohibit “military-grade weapons” on city streets. It would make it a crime for “insurrectionists” and those convicted of hate crimes to possess firearms. Five new Missouri laws to know that become official Monday "I think you have to be very careful to stay in your lanes. Cities can’t just go out there and do what they want to do, and when there is a constitutional issue to it, or state legislature do it, they can’t supersede that. Just like we can’t supersede the federal government," said Gov. Parson. "Whether you like it or not, when the law is passed, you’ve got to obey the law, is the way I look at it, and there are no exceptions."Mayor Tishaura Jones announced the wide-ranging legislation last week, noting support from several members of the Board of Aldermen. The board could begin ...

Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser on Monday took the unusual step of publicly acknowledging his office’s investigation into Wyatts Towing, days after a state senator who helped write last year’s towing legislation said she was illegally towed.Weiser told The Denver Post in an interview that Sen. Julie Gonzales’ case exemplifies the concerning behavior from Colorado’s largest towing company that prompted his office’s probe last year.“You shouldn’t have to be a state senator to be treated fairly,” Weiser said. “Sen. Gonzales didn’t have to pay the substantial fee only because she had the knowledge and ability to advocate for herself. Most people wouldn’t be in that position.”State investigators will be contacting Gonzales, Weiser said, and adding her testimony to the growing body of evidence the office has collected.“We want to make sure we’re protecting consumers and taking on any company that pre...
