9:05 – 9:22 (15mins) David Stokes, director of municipal policy at the Show-Me Institute, to discuss: MetroLink Green Line Paused– The proposed $1.1 billion Green Line expansion in St. Louis has been paused at the request of Mayor Cara Spencer, who raised concerns about the project’s viability and cost. With no existing bus route along the proposed corridor and just 5,000 projected daily riders, the plan was a costly gamble with limited upside. Federal funding prospects have also dimmed. David argues this pause offers a much-needed opportunity to rethink how St. Louis approaches regional transit. The Green Line is a bad idea. It should be stopped all together, not just paused. Urban Farming Veto in North St. Louis County– County Executive Sam Page recently vetoed a $3.2 million plan to fund an urban farming initiative aimed at tackling food insecurity in North County.

9:05 – 9:22 (15mins) David Stokes, director of municipal policy at Show-Me Institute to discuss a recent piece he wrote: "Everyone hates property taxes, which is why we should depend on them more": In his latest op-ed, David argues that while people dislike property taxes, they are actually one of the fairest and most stable sources of local government revenue. Unlike sales taxes, which shift costs to outsiders, property taxes directly fund the services residents use daily. He explains why Missouri cities depend less on property taxes than any other state—and why that should change. Stokes also notes that because voters are more cautious about approving property tax hikes, governments must make a stronger case and be more accountable with how they spend the revenue. 9:25 – 9:37 (12mins) Larry Conners Weekly: "Mr. Conner's Neighborhood @LarryConnersUSA 9:41 – 9:56 (15mins) Weekly: Jay Ashcroft, former: Missouri Secretary of State, See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft joins KMOX's Michael Calhoun after several ballot drop boxes were set on fire in Washington state yesterday.

You'll be casting ballots in Missouri in November on Constitutional Amendment 7, which has several provisions. The biggest one would make Missouri's Constitution consistent with state law by only allowing citizens of the United States to vote. The measure changes one word, from "all" to "only" citizens. The other provisions of 7 pertain to ranked voting and plurality winners. Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft, who unsuccessfully sought the GOP gubernatorial nomination in August, appeared this morning on 939 the Eagle's "Gary Nolan show." Secretary Ashcroft says Missouri needs a law that requires individuals to show proof of citizenship before they register and before they vote. Democrats like former State Rep. Chris Kelly (D-Columbia) say the law already prohibits this. Former Representative Kelly says the Missouri Constitution says voters must be citizens. But State Rep. Adam Schwadron (R-St. Charles) and other Republicans say it reads that all citizens are eligible to vote. That's why they want the one-word change. Gary Nolan and Secretary Ashcroft also discussed Amendment 2, which involves sports wagering, and Amendment, and Amendment 5, which would allow a riverboat casino at the Lake of the Ozarks:
