Former State Senator John Lamping joins Marc and Kim to preview Missouri’s 2026 legislative session, focusing on Governor Kehoe’s push to eliminate the state income tax. Lamping says the odds look strong but warns the real resistance will come from business lobbies, not Democrats. He explains the likely shift toward taxing services and goods currently exempt, and how similar reforms in other states boosted long-term growth. The discussion expands to praise the Taylor family for privately funding St. Louis City SC’s billion-dollar stadium—contrasting it with the taxpayer-funded Chiefs deal in Kansas, which Lamping calls corporate welfare at its worst. He closes by stressing that if Kehoe pulls this off, it would be one of Missouri’s boldest conservative reforms ever. #MissouriPolitics #JohnLamping #IncomeTax #CorporateWelfare #MarkCoxMorningShow
