Nearly 40 citizens attended the annual Chamber Legislative Breakfast, which allowed State Senator Brad Lager and Representative Mike Thomson to give their take on the adjourned General Assembly actions. The event was held May 21 at the Maryville Community Center and was sponsored by KCP&L. Both legislators shared the consequences of the passing of the largest-ever state budget that will allow for more dollars to public education efforts.
