Governor Mike Kehoe has presented his state agenda, emphasizing a commitment to support President Trump's initiatives aimed at reducing illegal immigration. During a recent address, he expressed his intention to bolster efforts to deport migrants who are currently residing in the country without legal status.
In a notable proposal, Kehoe suggested the establishment of a statewide agency named the "Show-Me Department of Government Efficiency" (Show-Me DOGE). This initiative aims to streamline government operations and improve efficiency across various state departments. The governor's focus on efficiency comes at a time when funding for public education is facing significant cuts, raising concerns among educators and parents about the potential impact on schools and students.
Kehoe's agenda reflects a broader trend in state governance, prioritizing immigration control and government efficiency, while the future of public education funding remains uncertain. As discussions continue, stakeholders are eager to see how these proposals will unfold and their implications for communities across the state.
