AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Missouri Politics & Labor: Labor and progressive groups launched a $1M push to flip a Missouri legislative seat, aiming to reverse GOP momentum after paid-leave and minimum-wage fights. Consumer Safety: The FDA announced a nationwide recall of Schwarzkopf Professional hair mousse due to a can-pressure defect that could cause explosions; Walmart also pulled a Marketside tomato bisque soup kit over possible listeria contamination. Higher Ed & Workforce: Missouri Western and North Central Missouri College set presidential/provost interviews as Ph.D. admissions fell 15% nationwide, with international applications down sharply. Local Business & Growth: The Acoustic Shoppe in Springfield hit the Inc. 5000 list (No. 3,211), while Kid City USA in Lee’s Summit abruptly closes, leaving families scrambling for childcare. Energy & Infrastructure: Ameren crews work to restore power after storms in Cape Girardeau, and Kirksville begins overnight downtown street improvements next week. Public Safety: Kansas City police investigate another homicide on Main Street; senators opened a child-safety investigation into Roblox. Sports & Community: Travis Kelce says Chiefs camp is his “sanctuary,” and the Bears’ relocation talk keeps circling Hammond, Ind.
