On this episode, Ben highlights just a handful of items we have lived on a federal level impacting many across the country, including here in the St. Louis region. Also, with the Missouri House and Senate back in session, one topic coming out of Jefferson City is the elimination of the state income tax, Ben reviews updates on a county and municipal level, and breaks down former congresswoman Cori Bush’s platform and her voting record as she looks to reclaim her seat in Congress.
