Legislature Deliberates on Missouri Budget and Reforms
In Jefferson City the Missouri Legislature faces a 2 billion dollar fiscal year budget as eight appropriations bills await debate. Key items include 7 million bond debt payments and 500 million for public education, with federal revenue sharing funding heavily shaping capital improvements statewide. House and Senate work also targets executive-branch reorganization into 14 departments and multiple local and legal measures. A separate report from Quincy notes Senator Eagleton backing public funding for national campaigns, citing Watergate implications and urging party consolidation ahead of 1974 elections.
