We need to fund public schools. We have not fully funded our schools in decades. Eliminate vouchers, public schools are free for all. Protect rural healthcare. This is a rural state; losing our rural hospitals is a burden on rural people. Our elected officials should govern in the open. The projected good of AI data centers does not outweigh the environmental devastation.
Fully funding public schools w/ public money should be the bare minimum rather than what we are doing. Why is our student funding and average teacher pay among the lowest in the nation? Our children deserve a firm educational foundation and the opportunity to succeed. Missouri has a spending problem. We need to fix it so we can take care of the real things our people need.
