AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoRedistricting in the spotlight: Missouri’s Supreme Court is set to hear a challenge to the state’s new congressional map, with voters arguing it breaks Missouri’s compactness rules and can’t survive an initiative push for a referendum—while the broader GOP redistricting fight keeps escalating after the U.S. Supreme Court weakened federal Voting Rights Act protections. Missouri politics, too: The session’s endgame is still producing major bills, including a healthcare package headed to Gov. Mike Kehoe and a porn-site age-verification measure also moving to his desk. Local life: Kansas City is setting World Cup bar hours (some until 5 a.m.), and Boone County is dealing with a major power outage after a tractor-trailer rollover. Workforce & education: A Missouri workforce pilot called SkillStream is launching to connect people with energy jobs in Fort Smith, and Fort Hays State students kept winning big in TV production awards.
