BRANSON, Mo – Since a Duck Boat capsized during a storm on Table Rock Lake, killing 17 of the 31 people on board, Missouri lawmakers have worked to prevent something similar from happening again.
“There was just so much death and little we can do,” First responder recalls the Duck Boat Tragedy
One of the first laws Josh Hawley introduced when he became a senator was the Duck Boat Safety Enhancement Act of 2020.
“We’ve got tough new safety standards and we are not going to allow these kind of tragedies to continue to happen and do nothing,” Hawley said.
