St. Louis On The Air

Missouri lawmakers placed Gov. Mike Kehoe’s ambitious tax plan on the ballot last month. It gives lawmakers five years to expand sales and use taxes as a way to phase out the state’s income tax. The proposal has sparked bipartisan opposition – and raised the ire of some powerful groups who may spend money to defeat it. Economist Aaron Hedlund, a supporter of the plan, joins “The Politically Speaking Hour on St. Louis on the Air” to explain why it could help the state in the long term.
