DECISION MAKERS REPLACE REPORTERS IN THIS KCWIR SPECIAL: The Bi-State Business Border Battle erupts again with the biggest prize up for grabs yet. Why won’t Kansas and Missouri call a truce? We talk to legislators about it. Plus, one of the biggest income tax cuts in Kansas history is signed. But what does it mean to you? Missouri lawmakers end what The Star editorial board calls the most “desultory and destructive session” in years. And after all the talk, nothing is done to fix the Kansas City, MO School District.
This week we push aside our regular reporters to bring you pithy and insightful state lawmakers on both sides of state line to comment on the news instead. After all every one of our stories this week involve state government. Why wouldn’t we ask the people who are making the decisions on your behalf?
