“The growth in federally mandated state spending continues to increase the size of state government and threaten strategic investments in Missouri's future. It's time to modernize Missouri state government to do more with less through technology, innovation, and a little more Missouri common sense.
Join our effort to #ModernizeMO by submitting your idea TODAY of how you think we can reduce the size of government and unleash the potential of our great state. Submit your idea below or on Facebook and Twitter with the hashtag #ModernizeMO.”
