Missouri Rep. Cecelie Williams is ready for divorce law changes, her ‘independence day’

from Show Me Today - The Voice of Missouri

In Missouri, a judge can choose to wait to finalize a divorce if the wife is pregnant. The state House of Representatives wants to change this technicality. It has unanimously passed a bill sponsored by Dittmer state Representative Cecelie Williams. Alisa Nelson talks to Representative Williams, a domestic violence survivor, who says that when her bill passes, it will be her independence day.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
