Creating a State Budget for Our Future
From the desk of Senator David Pearce
The crafting of Missouri’s budget is always a challenge for lawmakers. Navigating the continuing revenue shortfalls has required a shifting of funding, but not in priorities. Facing a $500 million shortfall for the next budget year is daunting, but my colleagues and I remain committed to providing Missourians with a balanced budget that will serve the best interests of the entire state.
The budget process begins when the governor unveils his budget proposal in the State of the State address. Lawmakers then consider the governor’s budget recommendations as the budget work starts its journey through the House and then the Senate. The work on our state’s budget begins with meetings of the House Budget Committee and the Senate Appropriations Committee, which hear from various state departments and programs about current financial situations. Suggestions include how they can streamline their services, and what each requires for funding. This public committee process allows for each state department to have input before the budget bills are drafted.

Thank a Farmer Week starts Monday
Fm-92 Radio Station, Bates County Live and the News-Xpress would like to use our time and websites, to promote the 2012 Missouri Farm Bureau’s Thank a Farmer Week. The week of February 5th through the 11th we ask our audience and subscribers to join with us, as we salute our Farmers . We have a week to provide a unique opportunity to promote agriculture. This time is being used to tell the story of farmers and what they do throughout the year to produce food that provides healthy choices for all of us.
Farmers and Ranch families comprise 2 percent of the United States population yet they produce food for the world. The values of American’s farmers include preserving the land, caring for the animals and being good neighbors.
Today, U.S. farmers are the world’s most productive. Each produces food and fiber for 154 people in the United States and abroad. For the first time in human history, most people have little contact with the source of their food supply. They rely solely on others to produce what they need. Consumers take the food supply for granted failing to connect food in stores and restaurants to the farm!
So February 5th through the 11th, we honor and give recognition of our thanks to the Farmer for the food we will eat today. Those of us in Bates County and our Rural Counties will come in contact with a farmer today, or sit next to them at a local restaurant… take the time to “ say thanks” for the food they provide for your family.
