93.9 The Eagle – The News and Talk of Columbia, MO
Missouri Governor Mike Parson expresses frustration with the GOP-controlled Legislature for approving a two-year tax credit extension for agriculture while passing longer tax credit extensions for businesses. The governor notes agriculture is Missouri’s largest industry, with an economic impact of $93-billion statewide. Governor Parson has called a special session for this fall at the Statehouse in Jefferson City, and wants to see a six-year extension for farm tax credits. Governor Parson joined us live on 939 the Eagle’s “Wake Up Mid-Missouri,” and is also excited about tomorrow morning’s governor’s ham breakfast in Sedalia. He says he’ll be in jeans in the morning and may have to wear a jacket due to weather:
