93.3 KWTO Keeping Watch Over the Ozarks
Missouri lawmakers meet for a special session Wednesday in Jefferson City.
They will be discussing a statewide income tax cut proposal.
According to a statement from his office, Governor Parson’s tax cut relief plan would mean “significant savings” for Missourians every year.
The tax cut proposal increases the standard $2,000 deduction for individuals.
Additionally, Missourians would not pay taxes on their first $16,000 of income.
The proposal would also eliminate the bottom tax brackets in Missouri.
Governor Parson originally wanted the special session to start a week ago on September 6th, but lawmakers said they needed more time.
