Insider's Hour with the Show-Me Institute

It’s a wrap! Show-Me Institute experts will break down the outcomes of the 2026 Missouri legislative session and share their insights.
About this Event

This post-session recap will explore key policy developments in state income tax, the new budget, and education:

· The general assembly approved placing a constitutional amendment on the ballot to begin the process of phasing out the state income tax later this year. Elias Tsapelas will explain what will happen next if voters approve the amendment.

· Our scholars have written and testified frequently about the early literacy crisis in Missouri. Did legislation pass that will address the problem and prepare students for future academic success? Cory Koedel will review which legislative actions are wins and where improvements are needed.

Don't miss this opportunity to hear more about legislative session and the implications for Missouri families and taxpayers. This event is open to anyone interested in learning more about policies that could shape Missouri’s future. Come, have a drink and a snack, and engage in meaningful conversation. We look forward to seeing you there!
