Calling Congress’ failure to act on a transportation bill ‘outrageous’ -- Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, II, is urging his colleagues to act now.

“With America’s Army standing up for our country’s freedom all over the world, it is only appropriate that we take time out today to honor all of those serving and to let them know how much they are appreciated,” said U.S. Representative Cleaver. “Our Army is the best in the world and they show their talent, character and commitment each and every day.”

Kansas City – Congressman Cleaver today joined Posty Cards of Kansas City, as well as other project partners and community leaders, to celebrate the company’s groundbreaking honor of receiving LEED Platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.

This certification makes Posty Cards the first Platinum industrial building in the state – and one of only seven nationwide. Posty is by far the smallest company with this distinction.

Kansas City – Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, II, today urged Members of Congress to immediately make more money available to fight floods and finish repairs in Missouri’s Fifth District.

“My constituents, as well as many thousands of others living along the Missouri River, experienced a flood of historic proportions and catastrophic damages last year,” said Congressman Cleaver. “And still today, they are dealing with delays, waiting for repairs, and living in fear of future flooding. Enough is enough. Let’s get them the help they need – now.”
