In this segment, Marc Cox is joined by Missouri Senator David Gregory (Dist. 15) to discuss the ongoing legislative efforts in Missouri as lawmakers push to make critical decisions before the May 17th deadline. Senator Gregory talks about the challenges of working across the aisle, navigating the partisan divide, and what is realistically achievable in the final days of the session. The discussion covers key issues on the table, including the heated filibuster by Missouri Democrats blocking the GOP's efforts to overturn a voter-approved paid sick leave initiative. They also touch on the proposed change to raise the legal marriage age from 16 to 18, a move that has sparked significant debate in the state legislature.
