April 23 @ 11:30 am - 1:00 pm
Join us and get the inside scoop on the Missouri legislative session and policies that could directly affect the lives of Missourians at the Show-Me Institute’s Insider’s Hour!
CEO Brenda Talent, Director of State Budget and Fiscal Policy Elias Tsapelas, and Director of Education Policy Cory Koedel will discuss, from a free-market policy perspective, what is being done to address these important issues:
- Education: Missouri’s reading test scores have hit a 20-year low, showing that 42 percent of the state’s fourth graders can barely read. The state is facing a serious literacy crisis.
- Elimination of the Income Tax: An amendment outlining a plan to eliminate the individual income tax is being considered. What steps would Missouri need to take to do this and how will taxpayers be impacted?
