Due to weather, today’s hearing in the State Capitol on whether St. Louis City should control its own police department has been cancelled.

The weather in Jefferson City is sunny and nice, but several of inches of snow have already fallen on St. Louis and more is expected, keeping many aldermen and the mayor from trekking the Capitol to testify.

State Rep. T.D. El-Amin, who’s sponsoring House Bill 2117, says the hearing will be rescheduled soon.
