This week's highlights:
Top News: Earlier today, the Missouri House gave the final approval to the state's operating budget for FY25, and earlier this week, Missouri Governor Mike Parson signed SB 727 into law. Together, these actions will result in the biggest boost to education funding for Missouri in recent history
Missouri Update: The action in the House was all on the floor, as Committee work has wound down and members begin to realize that the number of days remaining in Session will severely limit their ability to pass additional legislation.
Kansas Update: Governor Laura Kelly has reaffirmed her commitment to vetoing the tax bill recently passed by the state Legislature, citing significant financial risks to the state's future stability.
