"Each and every day I work to strengthen America’s military and be an effective and independent voice for the families of rural Missouri,” U.S. Rep. Ike Skelton said. “With our troops fighting two wars, the continued specter of terrorism, and some in Washington proposing base closures, my fight to support our troops and veterans is more important than ever. Not only are Whiteman Air Force Base and Fort Leonard Wood essential for training our troops and protecting our homeland, they create jobs and support small business throughout this district. I am honored to have received the support of Missouri families in today’s primary and I look forward to continue to be an independent voice that puts my district and our military families first.”
