AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Cost-of-living pressure: A St. Louis couple now in Seattle says higher expenses are making parenthood feel financially risky, a reminder that household budgets are getting squeezed even when incomes rise. Local Route 66 business: Lee’s Summit restored a historic Route 66 motel sign, with plans to move it to Joplin—another win for Missouri tourism and small-business heritage. Food safety and recalls: General Mills recalled about 735,000 Pillsbury Bread Rolls after possible glass contamination, with the products sold through Walmart in-store bakeries; consumers are urged to check lot numbers. Healthcare policy: The U.S. Senate rejected a Democratic push to end a Medicare AI prior-authorization pilot, keeping the debate over AI in medical decisions front and center. Missouri banking: Simmons First reported Q2 net income up about 22% year over year, with revenue growth but credit-loss provisions rising. Community support: Warrensburg’s Tiger Den expanded into a Tiger Resource House, adding family services like showers, laundry, and internet access. Public safety/consumer fraud: BBB Scam Tracker shows Clinton, Mo., tied for 29th statewide in June scam reports, with online purchase scams the most common.
