When Missouri Speaks, Claire McCaskill Is All Ears
 
U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill has never been afraid to hear the questions, concerns and strong opinions of the Missourians she represents.

■  She has held 52 town halls in the past year and a half alone.

■  That's more town halls than the other nine members of the Missouri congressional delegation combined.

■  No community too small, no town too remote.
    No questions off-limits or pre-screened. No invitation lists.

Claire McCaskill knows that listening to and learning from Missourians is the most important part of her job.

McCaskill Listened and Went to Work
These days, progress doesn't get national headlines unless there is scandal or partisan food fights involved. But if you're willing to work hard and reach across the aisle, things can get done.

Getting Veterans Their Due – In Benefits and Respect
 
Arla Harrell of Macon, Missouri was one of 60,000 WWII U.S. servicemen forced to participate in experiments in which he was intentionally exposed to mustard gas, and subsequently suffered from multiple chronic ailments linked to his exposure.

Yet the military swore Arla to secrecy about the classified experiments and the VA denied more than 90% of mustard gas claims from these veterans.

Working with Republican colleagues from Georgia and Indiana, and President Trump's VA Secretary, McCaskill got her bipartisan Arla Harrell Act signed into law.

Finally, Arla and other veterans got the benefits they deserved, but more importantly, they were recognized for the sacrifices they made for our country.

Less Expensive Hearing Aids
 
Claire heard from many Missourians that hearing aids were prohibitively expensive, with costs not covered by Medicare or most private insurance plans.

She joined with a bipartisan group of Senators to pass a law allowing hearing aids to be sold over-the-counter, dramatically reducing their cost and giving thousands of Missourians the chance to hear again.
 
Longtime Fiscal Watchdog Exposing Contracting Abuses
 
A former Missouri State Auditor, McCaskill leads a congressional committee investigating wartime contracting abuse. And she's uncovered plenty of it. 

Just this year, McCaskill grilled the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers over a boondoggle in which an electrical transmission project was constructed in Afghanistan at a cost to American taxpayers of $60 million. The project never worked and is now considered a safety risk, with taxpayers being charged another $98,000 to keep the Afghan government from employing the system.
