Wouldn’t it be easier to just send a press release?

Tom Lehrer did write a song.

SECOND REGULAR SESSION
HOUSE BILL NO. 1560 [pdf]
101ST GENERAL ASSEMBLY

INTRODUCED BY REPRESENTATIVE DAVIDSON.
3844H.01I DANA RADEMAN MILLER, Chief Clerk

AN ACT

To amend chapter 9, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to national good neighbor week and day.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:
Section A. Chapter 9, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 9.344, to read as follows:

9.344. September twenty-eighth is hereby designated as “National Good Neighbor Day” and the week of September twenty-eighth is hereby designated as “National Good Neighbor Week” in Missouri. Citizens of this state are encouraged to participate in appropriate events and activities to establish connections with their neighbors. Research shows that knowing one’s neighbors reduces loneliness, crime, and isolation and leads to safer and more vibrant communities.

In a world where the right wingnut controlled Missouri General Assembly enables our neighbors remaining unvaccinated and unmasked during a pandemic, promotes them being armed to the teeth, and caters to a lunatic fringe need to interfere in women’s reproductive health care choices, yeah, no.
