Summary:
The House opened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, approval of the prior day’s journal, and a long series of special guest introductions. Guests included the Tipton Lady Cardinals girls basketball state champions and coach Jason Colpepper, Clayco executives and a construction career nonprofit representative, FCCLA and FBLA students, Missouri FCCLA members, legislative interns and shadow students, Missouri Rural Water Association members, medical students from Kansas City University in Joplin, and family members of members. The chamber also recognized legislative assistants for their work and noted Earth Day/Arbor Day seedlings available in the rotunda from the Department of Conservation.
Committee reports were received on several measures, and the House then took up multiple bills for third reading. House Substitute for House Committee Substitute for House Bills 3068 and 3049 passed after debate over its broad public-safety contents, including AI restrictions, trafficking training, psilocybin trials, DWI-related provisions, fire and life safety standards, and a disputed anti-trans provision; it passed 117-10 with 17 present. Senate Substitute for Senate Bill 914, dealing with lateral fields and soil analysis for sewage-related purposes, passed 108-34 with one present. Senate Committee Substitute for Senate Bill 1142, a Secretary of State measure on certificates of good standing for series LLCs doing business in other states, passed 142-0 with one present.
The House then perfected House Bill 1758, a daylight saving time “trigger” bill. Supporters argued it would protect Missouri from neighboring states forcing a switch to permanent standard time, help tourism and outdoor recreation, and avoid the health and safety problems associated with changing clocks. Opponents argued the bill was constitutionally problematic, multi-subject, or the wrong policy choice, with some favoring permanent standard time instead. After extensive debate, the House ordered the bill perfected and printed. The session ended with announcements, including committee meeting notices, and a point of order raised over a member wearing tennis shoes.

Summary:
The committee first adopted the 2025 minutes, then took up House Bill 727, which would allow burning untreated, unpainted dimensional lumber such as two-by-fours. The bill was presented as a narrow exemption to existing restrictions on burning construction debris, and it was reported favorable without objection.
Members then heard from DEQ Secretary Courtney Burdett on House Bill 697, the department’s sunset/recreation bill. She outlined DEQ’s work on permit modernization, interagency coordination, field inspections, spill response, criminal investigations, environmental education, and small business assistance. Members raised issues including a large waste-tire site, an oil spill response, and a stormwater discharge issue at Smitties. The committee praised DEQ’s responsiveness and reported the bill favorable without objection.
House Bill 758, dealing with DEQ fees, was then considered. The bill and amendment package would update and increase various permit and program fees, add annual or biennial CPI-based adjustments, and remove outdated provisions, with the stated goal of aligning revenues with expenditures and reducing reliance on the state general fund. Several industry and landowner groups supported the measure, and the committee adopted the amendment and reported the bill favorable.
The committee also advanced House Bill 726, which increases penalties for abandoning vessels and related gross littering. Members discussed how abandoned boats are identified, owner notice procedures, registration versus title issues, hurricane-related losses, and protections for older or distressed owners. Wildlife and Fisheries said the bill targets intentional dumping and that existing law allows case-by-case discretion for true hardship situations. The bill was reported favorable. House Bill 756, concerning personal watercraft, was also reported favorable after testimony that it would require reasonable suspicion for vessel stops, align state rules more closely with federal boating safety standards, and update provisions on accident reporting and inflatable PFDs.
Finally, the committee considered House Bill 767, which creates recreational alligator hunting license and lottery fees contingent on separate legislation authorizing the season. Supporters said the measure would help create a recreational opportunity while generating conservation funding, but landowners and commercial harvesters warned the fee may be too low, the proposal may be moving too quickly, and recreational harvest could affect commercial operations and landowner interests. After extensive discussion, the committee adopted an amendment and reported the bill favorable. House Bill 964, authorizing a state property transfer in Caddo Parish, was also reported favorable, and the meeting adjourned.

Joint Meeting: Senate Committee and House Committee on Capital Investment - 05/17/26
Transcript Highlights:
- Eagle Lake Drinking Water Treatment Facility, $6 million.
- Lake Benton Public Infrastructure, $863,000.
- Lake Lillian Infrastructure Improvements, $3.5 million.
- For Mountain Lake, public infrastructure, $2 million.
- For Silver Lake, infrastructure improvement project, $3 million.
Summary:
The committee took up a large bonding bill and reviewed the final spreadsheet of capital investments. Chairs and members repeatedly thanked staff, House and Senate negotiators, and the Governor’s team for a collaborative process. The bill was described as a statewide package rather than a partisan one, with major funding for higher education asset preservation, DNR projects, public safety, transportation, the Met Council, veterans facilities, corrections, DEED/local projects, and a large water infrastructure section.
House Fiscal staff and Senate fiscal staff walked through the bill line by line. Highlights included University of Minnesota and Minnesota State asset preservation, education and language immersion school funding, DNR trail and flood mitigation projects, public safety facilities, local road and bridge grants, Met Council parks and I/I grants, veterans home and armory funding, corrections projects including the Faribault vocational expansion, and many local economic development and public facility projects across Greater Minnesota and the metro. The bill also included Public Facilities Authority water and wastewater grants, housing rehabilitation funding, historical society grants, a Minnesota Zoo operating transfer, airport appropriations, and several cancellations of prior appropriations to help finance the package.
Members generally praised the bill and the bipartisan work behind it. Some Republicans emphasized the one-time license fee reduction and affordability, while also saying DEED’s business development infrastructure funding was too low. Senator Nelson highlighted long-awaited transportation projects such as Highway 14 and township roads. Senator Dibble supported the transportation investments but criticized the bill for having no transit funding, calling that a major omission. No vote was recorded in the excerpt, but the discussion centered on final review and support for moving the bonding bill forward.

Summary:
The committee met in executive session and first approved H.J.R. 189 on an 11-1 vote with one present. It then adopted a committee substitute for House Bill 2139 and advanced the substitute version of House Bill 2139 and House Bill 2175 on a 10-2 vote. The committee also adopted a substitute for House Bill 3051 and passed that measure 7-5 with one present. Later, it adopted an amendment and substitute for House Bill 2908 and House Bill 2990 and sent those bills forward on a 13-1 vote.
A major portion of the meeting was devoted to House Bill 2388 and House Bill 2656, the “Clean Skies Act,” which would ban geoengineering, weather modification, and cloud seeding in Missouri. The sponsors and supporters argued the bills were needed to stop the release of pollutants into the atmosphere, protect health, agriculture, water, and wildlife, and mirror laws already passed in Tennessee, Florida, and Louisiana. Committee members questioned the bill’s scope, jurisdiction, enforcement, federal preemption, and exemptions for agriculture and crop dusting. The sponsors said the substitute language was intended to remove constitutional concerns, especially by deleting references they viewed as targeting religion and by broadening the language to cover foreign law generally.
Supporters testified that geoengineering and cloud seeding are real, harmful, and often hidden from the public, citing petitions, social media support, alleged government funding, and concerns about chemicals such as aluminum, barium, strontium, and silver iodide. Several witnesses described personal health concerns, environmental contamination, and fears about weather manipulation, while a Missouri Farm Bureau representative said the organization opposed unregulated commercial weather modification as a proactive measure. The committee also heard from witnesses on a separate solar bill, House Bill 2478, who discussed solar farm setbacks, fire risk, soil and water contamination, decommissioning, taxation, and local control; the chair indicated the bill would likely be revised through a committee substitute to focus on safety issues and balance property rights with neighbor protections.

Summary:
The committee adopted the consent calendar and then heard several bills on child care, aging, child welfare, food access, and youth services. SB 1200 by Sen. Menjivar would redefine infant and toddler age categories in child care licensing to allow providers to serve children beginning at 18 months in the toddler category, with supporters saying it would increase capacity and help family child care businesses stay open; it passed 4-0 to Appropriations. SB 971 by Sen. Choi would authorize counties to offer optional adult education and technology training programs for adults 55 and older through local partnerships; supporters said it would reduce isolation and improve digital literacy, and it passed 4-0 to the floor. SB 1234 by Sen. Alvarado-Gil would require fentanyl to be included in court-ordered drug testing in dependency cases, with testimony from an angel family and law enforcement about child deaths and exposure risks; it passed 4-0 to the floor.
The committee also heard SB 1109 by Sen. Alvarado-Gil, which would require additional state review for short-term residential therapeutic programs in very small rural counties or facilities with repeated serious citations. The author and county officials from Alpine County argued that rural counties lack the hospitals, schools, and 24-hour emergency response needed to safely support these placements, while providers opposed the bill as overly broad and potentially destabilizing to STRTP capacity. After the author accepted committee amendments, members voted 4-0 to send the bill to Appropriations as amended. SB 961 by Sen. Ashby would require students applying for financial aid to be notified that they may also be eligible for CalFresh; student and advocacy witnesses described widespread food insecurity on campuses, and the bill passed 4-0 to Appropriations.
The committee then heard SB 1099 by Sen. Gomez Reyes, which clarifies local governments’ authority to provide state or local public benefits to all residents under PRWORA-related exemptions; supporters said it would reduce legal uncertainty for local safety-net services, and the bill was voted 2-0 with the remaining members absent, leaving it on call. SB 1190 by Sen. Grove would create a licensing and regulatory framework for youth transport companies that move minors to out-of-state residential facilities; survivors testified about traumatic transports, supporters called for basic guardrails, and the bill passed 4-0 to Public Safety. Finally, SB 1325 by Sen. Jones would create a narrow pathway for Feeding San Diego to participate in CalFood, with supporters saying it would expand hunger relief in San Diego County and opponents warning it could divert limited food bank resources; the discussion focused on broader funding concerns, and no final vote was recorded in the excerpt.
