From: To: Subject: Reply from Senator McCaskill Date: Monday, February 01, 2010 9:06 AM February 1, 2010 Dear Friend, Thank you for contacting me regarding my representation of Missouri as a United States Senator. I appreciate hearing from you, and I welcome the chance to respond. I take great pride in representing the entire state of Missouri, not just those who voted for me. I came to the Senate ready to work - ready to reach out to my Democratic and Republican colleagues in order to tackle the tough issues that confront America. My votes are about keeping my campaign promises, doing what is right for the people of Missouri, and voting my conscience. I believe that my voting record shows that I am independent and decide each issue on its merit, not on partisanship. I urge you to examine my voting record at http://thomas.loc.gov/. Again, thank you for contacting me. Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future if I can be of further assistance to you on this or any other issue.   Sincerely, Claire McCaskill United States Senator P.S. If you would like more information about resources that can help Missourians, or what I am doing in the Senate on your behalf, please sign up for my email newsletter at www.mccaskill.senate.gov.
