The Kansas City Star this weekend criticizes Missouri's legislative leaders for stripping funding for life science projects from the MOHELA spending bill.
From the editorial:
The bill that will be up for final Senate approval on Monday raids the student loan fund to pay for miscellaneous pet projects of legislators who have cooperated with the Republican leadership.
The list has been assembled with no thoughtful analysis of the state’s economic interests. And lawmakers have yet to see an independent financial analysis of the effect a sale of assets would have on MoHELA’s ability to help students.
Neither the end nor the means are justified here. The Senate should quickly reconsider its support of this deeply flawed piece of legislation.
