  • End of Session Update Cooperative School Districts of Greater Kansas City May 18, 2020

Carroll & Associates Legislative Consultants-Lobbyists-Attorneys at Law 215 East Capitol Avenue Jefferson City, Missouri 65101 Phone: 573-761-5952 Fax: 573-761-7490 Missouri General Assembly Legislative End of Session Update Cooperative School Districts of Greater Kansas City May 18, 2020 The historical 2020 legislative session now belongs to the ages. In many ways this legislative session could have been titled “the session of the unknowns.” It has been 102 years since a legislative session had to deal with a pandemic. Not since the legislative session during the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic has witnessed so many uncertainties. I started my fifth decade of being involved in state government this session. Over the years I have witnessed a lot, but never a session quite like this because of the coronavirus. The legislature lost six weeks of the session while they were temporarily shut down. When the legislators came back to finish the session, it was as if they were chasing a runaway roller coaster. In all my years I have never seen so many large omnibus bills being drafted and trying to get passed. The House alone took 26 non-controversial Senate bills and turned them into huge multi-issue bills in the hundreds of pages. Almost all of these massive bills were defeated in the final days of the session. In addition, for the first time that I know of, the Senate reconsidered a truly agreed to and finally passed bill and overturned it. This bill, HB 1862, was a conference committee report and included the Speaker of the House’s priority issue, which was to take away eminent domain from the Grain Belt Energy Group.

  • Than 100 State Legislators Join Coalition to Oppose Troubling Tobacco Tax Scheme
    For Immediate Release: Contact: Ronald J. Leone Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2016 573.864.5189 More than 100 state legislators join coalition to oppose troubling tobacco tax scheme. Jefferson City – A large bipartisan coalition of state representatives and senators from across Missouri are encouraging voters to vote “No” on a controversial constitutional amendment that contains several troubling provisions. Today, a total of 19 state senators and 91 state representatives announced their opposition to Amendment 3 and encouraged their constituents to oppose Big Tobacco's scheme. The overwhelming legislative opposition puts the majority of Missouri lawmakers on the same side as many diverse organizations that have come out against Amendment 3 - including groups that historically supported tobacco taxes. “Whether you’re Democrat or Republican, conservative or liberal, there is something in Amendment 3 for everyone and every group not to like,” said Ronald J. Leone, Executive Director of the Missouri Petroleum Marketers and Convenience Store Association (MPCA). Missouri State Senators Opposing Amendment 3 Sen. Dan Brown, R-Rolla Sen.
