With the MO State Board of Education NOT recommending full funding of local schools in their FY28 budget request, did you know MO falls behind most other states in nearly every indicator?This is only the beginning. #moleg #mogov

A sales tax as high as 16%? Yeah, that's what's coming to Missouri with Amendment 5. It's disguised as a tax cut, but it'll hurt most of Missouri taxpayers. #noeverythingtax

Amendment 5 would raise taxes for most Missourians, risk devastating cuts to services that build opportunity, and damage our state’s economy. Learn more: mobudget.org/amdt-5-summary-may-2026

Today’s rulings confirm what’s been clear all along: the Administration has been sitting on billions of available dollars that it is legally required to use to fund November benefits for the 1 in 8 Americans who need SNAP to afford their groceries.

We drive the economy: our innovation, our labor, our spending. We are the reason our communities thrive. Tell our leaders WE keep it all moving, and that’s why our wellbeing should come first. #WeDriveTheEconomy app.sosha.ai/s/FpSvJGlI

When people have to work 2 or 3 jobs just to make ends meet, they’re too stressed to show up for their families and communities. But we all benefit when workers are compensated well. #WeDriveTheEconomy app.sosha.ai/s/13fIQBIW

Some in DC want to eliminate health care to pay for tax cuts for wealthy corporations. They claim cuts won't hurt working families, but the cuts are designed to do just that, by creating obstacles so steep that Missourians – including working families - lose care.

1 in 3 Missouri working parents don’t get a single paid sick day. They are forced to choose between their paycheck and their family's financial stability because staying home means missing prescriptions, food, or rent. That changes today. #PropA

At a time of great economic uncertainty, the U.S. House is moving forward with a plan that would take health care and food assistance away from Missourians - all to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy. Tell Congress NO cuts to Medicaid or SNAP! mobudget.salsalabs.org/house-no-cut...

A tale of 2 competing worlds this week in #moleg: House passes $1.3 B tax cuts, Senate considers one. Meanwhile, House Budget Chair strips $$ for child care, K-12 education, and state employees because REVENUE IS NOT GROWING like it was and BUDGETING IS BECOMING TIGHTER!

MO is facing a budget cliff, and Congress is considering multiple changes to Medicaid and SNAP that could cost MO hundreds of millions of dollars each year. Meanwhile, MO Senators are debating a $300 million tax giveaway. #moleg, here's who would benefit:

What services are you willing to risk in order to give tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations? #moleg

Tax changes made since 2014 will cost MO $3.2 BILLION/year when fully implemented. That's the equivalent of more than 20% of the state general revenue budget. With Congress considering passing costs to states, it's irresponsible to enact more. #moleg mobudget.org/intro-mo-sta...

As MO Senate discusses tax breaks for the wealthy, remember that most Missourians pay a higher share of their incomes in state & local taxes than those in top income brackets. But 80% of the benefit of a capital gains exemption goes to the top 5%. 2/3 goes to the top 1%! #moleg
