Missouri Governor Seeks Return to Pre COVID Budget Levels

Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe is rolling out a new executive order he says is designed to streamline how state government works. 

It’s called Government Great, and he says it lines up with President Trump’s push to improve efficiency across government, including the initiative known as DOGE.

Kehoe said:  “This will not only involve members of the cabinet, but business leaders from successful Missouri made companies. They will recommend solutions to both my office and the General Assembly to increase efficiency, eliminate waste and improve accountability.”

Kehoe says it’s time for the state budget to look the way it did before the pandemic.
