State Rep. Dan Shaul on Congressional Redistricting Map and the Senate

(Jefferson City) State Representative Dan Shaul of Imperial just finished his final Legislative session as a member of the House. Shaul filed legislation for the new Congressional Map back in early January, and after moving on to the state senate, it was debated, filibustered, and tweaked for months before being agreed upon. The bill was signed by Governor Mike Parson on Wednesday. Shaul says with the help of Speaker Rob Vescovo of Arnold, they were able to accomplish one of the goals with district lines.

Shaul was hoping to have Jefferson County in one Congressional District, but it ended up being split down the middle.

Shaul is running for State Senator of District 22 in the August Primary. He says while there were plenty of issues with members of the senate not agreeing with themselves, or with members of the House, the current Jefferson County Senators were not part of that problem.

Shaul has served the Missouri House in the 113th District since 2014.
