Missouri Senate Democrats filibustered to block rushed gubernatorial appointments, demanding better vetting.
Missouri Senate Democrats staged a two-hour filibuster Thursday, the first major disruption of the 2026 session, opposing a batch of gubernatorial appointments.
The move, led by Sen. Steve Roberts, protested rushed voting in the previous session and demanded more thorough vetting of nominees, including St. Louis Metropolitan Police Board commissioners.
Senate President Pro Tem Cindy O'Laughlin temporarily withdrew the appointment list.
The action reflects growing Democratic efforts to challenge Republican dominance and push for greater legislative oversight.
